Hello,
I am a Chemistry Professor who enjoys teaching and tutoring chemistry. I began tutoring in 2013, while living in North Carolina, because I realized there were so many students who needed help; and I was sure I could help them. I tutored my children’s friends. I, along with the local Recreation Center Director and his wife, developed an SAT Prep program at the Recreation Center. Students came from many schools in Winston-Salem, NC, to learn the skills and strategies of performing well on the SAT. I believed I could show them how to be great students, to teach them skills and strategies that would make the process easier. I did not tutor much because I was working as a Chemistry Adjunct and part-time, as an x-ray technologist on the weekends. My academic journey started with an associate degree in Radiology Technology and certification with ARRT. While working as an x-ray technologist, I pursued and obtained a bachelor’s degree in chemistry. I left the full-time job at the hospital and began working in the chemical industry as a Quality Control Analyst. The reactions involved in the process intrigued me so much, I enrolled in college again and obtained a graduate degree in chemistry. Afterwards, I obtained an Ed. S and now I am currently enrolled in a Ph. D. in Curriculum and Instruction; I desire to teach teachers how to help students excel in Science courses.
When I moved to Las Vegas, NV, I tutored much more , tutoring Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Anatomy and Physiology at the local libraries. Students lack the ability to read and comprehend. How we arrived at this place in America, I am unsure, but the phenomenon exists on the East coast as well as on the West Coast. Just because the world is changing does not mean we should not have a quest for knowledge. I believe we can develop scientists, engineers, and any type of inventors, if we help students with their desire for truth and knowledge.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I am currently tutoring students in topics such as Probability, transformational geometry, and solving equations. A good strategy is to keep a notebook of the lessons we cover. In that way, you can put that information away until you are ready to be tested on it, and be able to concentrate on the topics in class. I like to study upcoming topics before you get to them in class and also review topics on which you have not tested well. Keeping that notebook allows students to learn topics, record them in words they understand and put that away until you are ready to be tested on the information, such as at exam time.
Anatomy

Anatomy

I attended Eastern Virginia Medical School for 9 months before I realized it was not for me. The Physician Assistants worked harder than I worked as an Xray Tech, so I knew that career was not for me. I think it is an excellent career for a person who is just starting their career, but I'm looking for something a little less physical. At EVMS, we had to name every bone, artery and vein in the body as well as their function. I am looking at those notes right now. I have also taken Sectional Anatomy for Imaging Professional just recently because I am interested in radionuclide labeling. So, I'm sure I have everything you need! Let me know how I can help.
Chemistry

Chemistry

I have tutored many, many students. This started when my children were in high school. I tutor their friends who played sports. I set up an SAT Prep program in my neighborhood at the Community Center and it was very successful. Last year, I worked at Forsyth Tech Comm College as a Chemistry instructor. I tutored many students. The demand for my tutoring was so great that I started working in the Learning Center and tutoring students in addition to my teaching job.I understand what it means to have good study skills and in most cases, students do not have the time required to apply those skills, either because of work or other circumstances. I think of myself as that bridge needed to be successful!
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

Although I am not an Elementary School teacher, I have tutored my neighbor's children in math often.
Organic Chemistry

Organic Chemistry

I have a master's degree in Chemistry and I am currently teaching Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry. I would love the opportunity to tutor Organic Chemistry with WyzAnt. Important organic functional groups include: alkenes, alkynes, esters, ethers, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids.
TEAS

TEAS

I tutored students for the TEAS test while teaching at Forsyth Tech Community College. I tutored students in Biology, Anatomy and Physiology and Chemistry and Math. With a Master's in Chemistry and Associate's Degree in Radiology Technology, I am knowledgeable of many of the subjects tested on the TEAS tests. Students need to have knowledge of Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy, metric units and equivalents. The TEAS tests exams not only knowledge of the subjects, but also understanding and manipulation of different equations.

great teacher and very patient!

Clairce L has been a very helpful teacher and I can’t wait to learn more great techniques from her! I love the way she teaches me great techniques about reading comprehension!

Harper , 9 lessons with Clarice

Knowledgeable & simplifies chemistry

Clarice taught me significant figures, converting measuring units, and writing chemical names and formulas. She was very helpful and always willing to do more if needed. She also teaches college level chemistry in town so she has insight into what you need to know. Highly recommend!

Hana, 3 lessons with Clarice

Gave great tips!

We reviewed the functional groups and I found it helpful how she put an emphasis on the basics of finding the functional groups that made it easier to name.

Parisa, 7 lessons with Clarice

Very patient

Thank you for helping Julian today. I really appreciate it. Hopefully the lessons will get smoother for him to understand

Michelle, 1 lesson with Clarice

Great tutor and great follow up

Clarice did a great job with my two teenage girls in both Chemistry and Geometry. She has great follow up with the girls and prepared Abigail for a coming Geometry test that she needs a good score on.

Susie, 9 lessons with Clarice

She's patient and knowledge

She's teaching me English. Grammar, punctuation, sentence structure and composition. I'm preparing to take a nursing pre-entrance exam. The Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) is used as part of the admissions process by Nursing and Allied Health schools nationwide.

Blanca , 1 lesson with Clarice

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Teas info: she has a broad understanding of what is needed to pass the teas. She is helping me overcome my anxiety of taking the teas. She has taught me how to read the reading questions in order to answer them correctly. As in what to look for. She is also tutoring me on the math part. Overall she is the best tutor I've found ever.
