Bio

I have a Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Colorado at Boulder where I learned to teach in the introductory chemistry and quantitative analysis (analytical chemistry) laboratories. I had taught Introductory Chemistry for three years at Union College as an adjunct professor (part time) and as a visiting professor (full time short term contract). As a high school student many years ago, I achieved perfect or nearly perfect grades on a number of my math and science Regents exams and on...

I have a Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Colorado at Boulder where I learned to teach in the introductory chemistry and quantitative analysis (analytical chemistry) laboratories. I had taught Introductory Chemistry for three years at Union College as an adjunct professor (part time) and as a visiting professor (full time short term contract). As a high school student many years ago, I achieved perfect or nearly perfect grades on a number of my math and science Regents exams and on various other exams. I am available to help you become more proficient in those areas of high school or introductory college chemistry that you are having difficulty with. I can also help you with algebra or trigonometry concepts and math word problems since that type of math is used very much in my teaching of science.

I would expect you to tell me before or during our first session what specific areas you are needing the most help in. You should not expect me to directly answer any homework problems that may have been assigned to you by your teacher or professor, as that would constitute academic dishonesty. I can, however, explain similar problems and how you would set them up and work out their solutions. I can explain concepts to you in ways that your teacher or professor may not have done so as to hopefully make them more understandable to you. It is really about you asking me your questions and me explaining things to you until you feel good that you really understand the material. If you do not understand right away, that's okay, as I am very patient and will work with you to help you along, even if that means taking smaller steps to get to the end result.

Besides chemistry, algebra, and trigonometry, I am available to help those who may be interested in basic computers or computer programming or working with programs such as Microsoft Excel. I have a lot of work experience in these areas, too.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

If you need help with Algebra 1, you may want to consider me as your tutor. I am a PhD scientist that works in a field in which math calculations are essential. Thus, I am naturally very skilled in math in general and algebra in particular. When I took my NYS Regents exams in the various math disciplines (algebra, geometry, trigonometry), I passed with either perfect grades or very nearly perfect grades for each of those subjects, among others. I know what it takes to do well in these subjects and I should be able to tutor you to become much more proficient than you are currently. Tell me what you need help in and I'll work with you to improve in those areas.

Chemistry

Chemistry

Get expert help with your high school or introductory college chemistry from an experienced professor. Let's work together to tailor your session or sessions to focus only on those areas you really need help in.
Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Excel

Learn more about Microsoft Excel from a Ph. D. scientist that has used this program professionally for over 18 years. If you want to learn the basics of this spreadsheet application, like how to set up a table of data and convert it into a graph, then I'll be happy to work with you at whatever level you feel most comfortable. If you'd like to learn how to write more complex functions and customize macro programs behind the scenes using the VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) programming language that is built into Microsoft Excel, then I can help you get started with that too.
Trigonometry

Very helpful tutor

Charles did a great job tutoring my daughter for AP Chemistry. She found him very clear and thorough in his explanations. We know several other families who have worked with Charles. All have been very positive about the experience. I would highly recommend this tutor.

Excellent Tutor would recommend to a friend

Charles was able to bring me up to speed on advanced excel features. Before meeting with Charles I felt uneasy about functions, absolute referencing, sorting, pivot tables, and macros. After our tutoring sessions I can confidently say that I feel comfortable using these features and now consider myself an advanced Microsoft Excel user. On a personal standpoint Charles was friendly, willing to understand, and very punctual when returning my inquires to meet with him. I would recommend Charles to anyone seeking assistance in the fields that he offers.
