About Kara


Bio

I am a scientific professional with a PhD in chemistry and experience in many related STEM fields. I have hands on, classroom taught and self taught knowledge in the most advanced forms of chemistry including: organic chemistry, physical chemistry (quantum mechanics, thermo and kinetics), inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, nuclear and radiochemistry, general chemistry, biochemistry and more. I also have moderate to advanced knowledge of many physics, biology, and math concepts. Please...

I am a scientific professional with a PhD in chemistry and experience in many related STEM fields. I have hands on, classroom taught and self taught knowledge in the most advanced forms of chemistry including: organic chemistry, physical chemistry (quantum mechanics, thermo and kinetics), inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, nuclear and radiochemistry, general chemistry, biochemistry and more. I also have moderate to advanced knowledge of many physics, biology, and math concepts. Please inquire if you're curious about my skill in a topic!

I love watching my students understand new concepts and succeed in their classes! I have several years' experience as a teaching assistant and as a private tutor, and I pride myself on being able to tailor the sessions to fit each student's needs. I often work with students and their family members for years as they progress through their education, developing a trusted and reliable relationship. Witnessing major milestones for my students (passing a class, obtaining a high SAT score, getting into medical school or post graduate education) is my favorite form of success. I am looking forward to helping you meet your goals.

Very knowledgeable and friendly

Kara is very well versed in chemistry. She's able to identify what my daughter needs help with right away and use her knowledge to help my daughter get the most out of the hour.

Sean , 10 lessons with Kara

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

focusing on molecular mass, number of protons, neutrons and electrons in an isotope, dimensional analysis and conversions between units, and percentage composition.She was very patient she knows my weakness and reviews all of them and I understood every thing.I give her 100%

Julieta, 1 lesson with Kara

Great experience

Kara was incredibly patient and highly knowledgeable in all the areas I needed help with, which made a significant difference in my understanding of the concepts. When I struggled to grasp something through verbal explanations alone, she went the extra mile by drawing diagrams, showing pictures, and using other visual aids to help clarify the material. Her tutoring style is a perfect balance between being professional and personal! Kara is absolutely worth the rate she charges, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a chemistry tutor. Just be sure to ask questions to get the most out of your sessions!

Knowledgable

Kara is excellent! Kara is tutoring my daughter in pre-calc and physics, and she adapts quickly to my daughter’s needs. My daughter has commented that Kara knows what she is doing, has the answers, and knows how to help me. We have seen an immediate impact on our daughter’s scores.

Knowledgeable and easy to work with

Kara has a clear understanding of the high school curriculum and was very quickly able to understand where my kid needed hel. From there on it was very helpful to just have her be working with my kid.

Amazing tutor

She helped me with balancing chemical equations. She is extremely patient and will break every down step but step. Without her I would be failing chemistry right now!
