PharmD Tutor Specializing in Chemistry, Math, and Science

Rena C.

I have a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) from Rutgers University Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy, where I built a strong foundation in chemistry, pharmacology, and applied mathematics. My academic training emphasized not only mastering complex scientific concepts but also communicating them clearly in both clinical and educational settings. This background allows me to confidently tutor subjects such as general chemistry, organic chemistry, and math, while also helping students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

I have been tutoring since my sophomore year of high school and continued consistently through college and pharmacy school. Over the years, I have worked with middle school, high school, and college students in one-on-one settings, tailoring my approach to each student’s learning style. My teaching method focuses on breaking down complex topics into manageable steps, using real-world examples, and reinforcing understanding through guided practice rather than memorization. I also prioritize building student confidence, as I’ve found that many students struggle not just with the material but with self-doubt.

My experience spans several years of individualized instruction, primarily in one-on-one environments, where I have helped students improve grades, prepare for exams, and strengthen foundational skills. I adapt each session based on the student’s pace and goals, whether that means reviewing core concepts, working through practice problems together, or developing test-taking strategies. My long-term experience and academic background enable me to support students across a wide range of levels and learning needs.
