Previously I taught: IB Chemistry and IB Biology at the International School Neustadt in Germany; AP Chemistry, Biology, and Independent Scientific Research at Woodward Academy in Atlanta; Chemical Engineering Principles and Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics at Georgia Tech.

I am passionate about teaching, set high standards for myself and my students, and am dedicated to helping them achieve their goals. I particularly enjoy working one-on-one with teenagers and young adults and have tutored throughout my career. Although I prefer to have regularly scheduled meeting times, I will be as flexible as possible on short notice to accommodate students whenever they have an upcoming assessment or assignment.

IB chemistry

Fantastic lesson. My daughter needed a last minute session and Jessica responded immediately ! She is very methodical, reinforced learning, patient and encouraging and un-rushes. Very knowledgeable in the intricacies and teaching rubric of the IB program which for my daughter is a win! Our daughter was very pleased and grateful to have someone within reach she can rely on to simplify complex concepts. Thank you!

Super Tutor!

Excellent sessions explaining the material and reinforcing it. My daughter enjoys working with Jessica and feels comfortable asking questions. Glad we found her and that she is working with daughter to better understand the concepts. The online platform and recorded sessions work great!

Well Prepared

My daughter needed refresher lessons on a few topic before her chem final. Jessica asked for the topics in advance and came to the session with materials ready and even sent my daughter additional practice questions to complete on her own before their next meeting. Jessica is very knowledgeable and gave my daughter great test strategies in addition to helping her grasp the concepts. I highly recommend her!
