Bio

I have my Masters in Medicinal chemistry. I also have 8+ years of experience tutoring students of all ages (from elementary school to adults in college) in general and organic chemistry topics. In addition to tutoring I spent 4 years as a teaching assistant for organic chemistry at a tier 1 research university. I love helping students, and I would love the opportunity to tutor you and help you recognize patterns and improve study habits.

I am truly passionate about problem solving and helping people. I am an exceptional communicator, and I love explaining complex concepts to students and watching the lightbulb come on. Please reach out to me regarding a time that works best for you. I love meeting new students, and most importantly I love helping them succeed.

Patient and Engaging Tutor

Elise is a very helpful tutor who directly helped me raise my grade a ton in organic chemistry 2. She is very knowledgable and has an ability to solve and break down organic chemistry problems in a way that helps you understand the concepts better. Understood more in a few sessions with her than a semester of class and office hours.

Smart and helpful tutor

Elise helped me with Analytical Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. She helped me with homework in both classes, lab questions, lab calculations, and preparing for exams. I had sessions with her at least once a week because of my heavy course load and even if I asked last minute she was always very flexible with me and would always try to find a time that worked well for both of us even though we are in different time zones. She worked through homework problems with me slowly so that I could grasp each concept and always made sure to ask me if I had any questions after each problem. She also sent me resources or study tools when needed if she thought they would help me! She uses a drawing board so that I could see exactly how she worked out the problems and every once in a while she would have me work out the problem myself to make sure I understood it, and then I could ask questions if I got confused through the process myself. These classes were very hard for me and I always got confused but when she would explain them it made so much more sense. I would not have made it through either of these classes without her tutoring me because I was extremely overwhelmed at the beginning of the semester before I reached out to her for lessons. She helped me truly understand what kind of processes I had to put my mind through to understand each class (because each are very different approaches to chemistry). I appreciate her so much and will be continuing to use her for help!!

super patient, gives the true dummie’s guide

Elise breaks the material down very well, easy to digest, she explains mechanisms in a way I can actually understand

Alice, 7 lessons with Elise

Knowledgeable and Patient tutor

Elise is the best Organic chemistry tutor. She was able to teach the material in a way that was easy to understand. It was difficult for me to understand the material in class, but after a few sessions with Elise, I felt much more confident. She is very patient and kind; even if you don't understand something right away, she will go over it again until you understand. She is very knowledgeable about all topics in Organic chemistry and is very flexible with scheduling and cancellations. Highly recommend her!

Kind and patient tutor

Worked w Elise to understand the first weeks of Organic Chem when I was feeling overwhelmed. She went through practice problems with me until I fully understood the concept.

Cara, 4 lessons with Elise

Knowledgeable and Patient

Elise is very knowledgeable of Chemistry and the content of the Chemistry Regents. She helped my daughter with strategies to remember information and to go into the exam confidently.

Dymphna, 4 lessons with Elise

Very knowledgeable and super helpful tutor!

Elise has shown me a more simple way to remember the differences between SN1/E1/SN2/E2 reactions and how to know which reaction to use in different circumstances.

Great Organic Chem Tutor

Elise is a great tutor for Orgo I. She helped clear up the basic concepts, like reaction types and their respective reagents or common patterns in reaction mechanisms, so that I could build a strong foundation for chemistry going forward. She would ask me to work out homework problems I was confused about so she could pinpoint where I may need adjustment, and then give me examples problems to apply what we just went over. I would highly recommend requesting Elise as a tutor!
