About Jonathan


Bio

I have been teaching college biology and chemistry courses since 2009 including introductory biology, anatomy and physiology, and general chemistry.

Good tutors impart to their students much more than just subject knowledge. Through dedicated teaching and mentoring, tutors can encourage students to assume responsibility for their own continued learning.
They can also show students ways to organize course content that makes it easier for them to study and learn.

Extremely knowledgeable & patient

Currently reviewing Chem. Depending on my needs… keeps it simple or in depth. Have had many sessions in Biology & Chemistry over the last 18 months and Jonathan is consistently engaging, though, and easy to understand.

So Helpful to Daughter

Jonathan was great at communicating his availability, then was the 3rd Chem tutor for our daughter but the first one who helped her to understand, and also gave me thorough summaries of their time together. Our daughter’s Chem scores have considerably improved with Jonathan’s help, and we’ll definitely use him again.

Knowledgeable and patient

Currently , we are doing basic chemistry for nursing and l find him to be knowledgeable about the topics . I therefore , recommend him without reservation . As soon as we done with chemistry , we will move on to anatomy and physiology .
