Bio

Hi guys. I am a Ph.D synthetic organic chemist with over 10 years experience in teaching organic chemistry courses at both the undergraduate and graduate level. I’m very passionate about the subject matter and really enjoy working with students with the ultimate goal of helping them gain mastery of what at first seems to be a very complex subject. My experience with teaching organic chemistry started as an undergraduate at Michigan State University where I tutored students (mainly sophomores, juniors and seniors) in the natural sciences by solving Organic chemistry problems during recitation hours. Furthermore, I also designed assignments and study guides to aid students in their understanding of organic chemistry but most importantly help them succeed and perform well in their exams.

I am very patient and my style of teaching provides students with all the necessary skill-set needed for understanding the core fundamental concepts in Organic chemistry which I strongly believe will help students succeed and gain an appreciation for organic chemistry.

Extremely Knowledgeable and explains concepts very well.

Working with Phil for Organic Chemistry has been so helpful. He explains topics much more in-depth and connects them a lot better than my professor does in class.

Excellent study session before a test!

Phil helped my college age son prep for a final exam. He was very knowledgeable in helping solve complex problems. We definitely recommend and will call again.

Organic Chemistry

Extremely helpful. He went over multiple examples with me and made sure I understood everything. Highly recommend him for a tutor. I was able to do well on my exam because of him.

Organic Chemistry Final

We reviewed an organic chemistry study guide that I had for the final. We went over the mechanisms reactions and it was a 2 hour tutoring session. It worked! I ended up getting a 90% on the final.

Katrina, 1 lesson with Phil

Very thorough and articulative

My daughter needed help in organic chemistry and AP chem topics. We tried a few teachers and finally found Phil through wyzant. He has excellent knowledge and great teaching skills. We certainly recommend him.

Great Tutor!

He teaches the concepts themselves, not just the questions that you submit for review. This makes sure that you successfully remember the problem-solving methods rather than how to solve the singular problem.

Toyin, 9 lessons with Phil

Great teacher, very thorough

Helped me understand the why behind the answers of different complex topics such as SN1 and SN2 reactions. I recommend him to anyone looking for a great tutor.

Organic Chemistry

Met with Phil once and the session was great. I felt like he help me a lot. Will be scheduling more time with Phil in the near future. Chemistry is not my strongest class and what we went over he made it a much clearer picture.

Grateful to Phil

Phil was very comfortable with the material and he simplified Ochem concepts. He made sure I understood rather than just repeating a professor type lecture. Well done. Thank you, Phil.
