Hello! My name is Charlie, and I specialize in helping students navigate the complexities of Organic and General Chemistry.
As a Goldwater Scholar with a 4.0 GPA, I have been recognized at the national level for my commitment to research and academic excellence in STEM. My dual background in Chemistry and Computer Science gives me a unique edge in tutoring; I don't just show you "what" the answer is—I teach you the underlying logical patterns that govern chemical reactions. Whether you are a pre-med student fighting to stay on track or a STEM major looking to master synthesis, my goal is to turn your frustration into fluency.
My Tutoring Philosophy: Patterns over Memorization
Most students struggle with Organic Chemistry because they try to memorize hundreds of individual reactions. This is the fastest way to burnout.
My method focuses on Mechanism Logic. We will break down every reaction into its core components: nucleophiles, electrophiles, and electron flow. Once you understand why electrons move the way they do, you won't need to memorize a single reaction map again. I use high-end digital tools, including 3D molecular modeling and interactive whiteboards, to help you visualize stereochemistry in real-time.
Experience & Background
Academic Excellence: 4.0 GPA and recipient of the Goldwater Scholarship (one of the most prestigious undergraduate awards in the U.S. for STEM research).
Instructional Context: I have years of experience explaining high-level technical concepts through my educational content creation. I’ve worked one-on-one with college peers and high school students, helping them jump from failing grades to A-range scores on midterms and finals.
What to Expect
Every session is customized. We will:
Identify the specific logical "bugs" in your understanding.
Practice "Predictive Problem Solving" so you are never surprised by an exam question.
I am committed to your success, so let’s get to work and make this your best semester yet.
