After graduating from Scripps College with a Bachelors degree in Chemistry, I decided to join the education field as a High School Chemistry teacher. Teaching and tutoring are significant joys in my life.
I have been a chemistry teacher now for 19 years. I've taught all levels of chemistry - from on-level and honors to AP to IB. I also hold a master's degree in secondary chemistry education and am certified to teach high school chemistry. Because of my extensive career as a classroom...

Liza is a great tutor!
Liza completely changed how I feel about chemistry. I used to dread it, and now I actually like it. Even though Wyzant only shows a couple of hours, I’ve worked with her for many hours overall, and she’s been consistently amazing. She explains things in a way that actually makes sense and doesn’t move on until I really understand. She’s super patient and encouraging and never makes me feel dumb for making mistakes. Instead, she helps me understand what I did wrong and how to do better next time. Liza always comes prepared and organized and brings extra practice or materials when I need them. She helped me with both chemistry content and lab report writing, and I’ve seen a real improvement in my grade. She also has a great personality and makes learning feel way less stressful. I would 100% recommend Liza to anyone struggling with chemistry.

Built My Confidence and Understanding in Chemistry
Liza completely changed how I feel about chemistry. I went from dreading it to actually liking it again. She explains things really clearly and doesn’t move on until I actually understand. She’s also really good at reading me—when I think I get something but don’t, she can tell and will explain it a different way until it makes sense. She’s very patient and encouraging and never makes me feel bad for making mistakes. Instead, she helps me understand what I did wrong and what I can do better next time, which has helped my confidence a lot. Liza is always organized and prepared for every session, and she brings extra materials when I need more practice. She helped me with both the chemistry content and lab report writing, and I saw a real improvement in my grade. She also has a great personality and makes learning feel way less stressful. I would definitely recommend Liza to anyone struggling with chemistry.
