Struggling with exams or dense lectures? I’ll help you truly understand the ‘why’ behind every concept — not just memorize it. Not only that, but we'll practice lots of problems to reinforce your understanding.

My name is Abe, I’m a university professor of chemistry and have over 10 years of tutoring experience in General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. I hold a B.S. in Biochemistry and a Ph.D. in Medicinal Biochemistry, and I’ve taught General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry at the college level for two years.

I’ve worked with students ranging from high school to college-level, and I’ve also helped students prepare for any chemistry-related sections of exams like the DAT, MCAT, and other standardized tests.

My approach is simple:

- Break down tough concepts into clear, understandable terms
- Use an approachable and informal style to ease stress and make learning enjoyable
- Challenge students with targeted practice problems that build critical thinking and problem-solving skills

What I love most about tutoring is seeing the moment when a concept “clicks.” My mission is to help students leave each session more confident, less stressed, and fully prepared for their next quiz, exam, or course challenge.

VERY Knowledgeable and Patient

I had Abraham as my tutor, and he was THE BEST. He knew the material inside and out, and explained everything in a way that actually made sense to me. He was also incredibly encouraging and patient, and I genuinely learned so much in just one hour. If anyone needs help in Chem, I 100% recommend going to Abraham, you won't regret it!!!

Abe is the best Organic Chemistry Tutor!

Abe has a way of teaching the subject backwards and forwards. He can speed things up where you strong and slow things down where you need more help. If you want a true understanding of the subject and feel confident when you walk in test day to achieve an "A," then Abe is your best option! I wish I had found him a lot sooner :)

An amazing, life changing Tutor.

Abraham truly changed my life, and it is no hyperbole. I was dreading taking Organic Chemistry 1 and 2 over the Summer. I thought that I would never be able to pass, nonetheless get a good grade in organic chemistry, because my basic chemistry fundamentals were so weak. But then, I met Abraham. Abraham truly demystifies Organic Chemistry. He evaluates your current understanding of Chemistry, and then devises a plan on how to build up your core strengths, skills and strategies. Organic Chemistry is a course where basic fundamentals are combined together to solve more and more complex problems. Abraham explains the "why" behind reactions and theory, in easy to understand terminology. Despite only having a week to prepare for each exam during the summer terms, Abraham helped make studying a much easier task, with focused practice problems and explanations. I ended up getting an A in both Organic Chemistry 1 and 2 because he gave me the confidence and helped me grasp the tools needed to succeed. Abraham is the best there is, and he deserves all the credit he gets.

Review for Abraham U.

Abraham U. was an amazing, dedicated, and passionate tutor. He is highly knowledgeable in both his subject matter and teaching methods, and he always maintained a positive attitude while helping me achieve my goals. The way he structured his lessons and broke down complex concepts made the material much easier to understand. He was always available to answer questions and genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcomes for his students. Abraham significantly helped improve my grade in chemistry and enabled me to achieve the grade I was aiming for. I worked with him for six months, and during that time, I saw how well he builds connections with his students. He takes the time to understand each student’s learning style and figures out the best way to help them succeed. Without a doubt, Abraham is a fantastic tutor, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for academic support and success in chemistry.

Highly Recommend!

I had Abraham as my tutor for organic chemistry, and he is very knowledgeable and easy to follow. He explained everything clearly and simplified tough concepts! I always learned a lot in one hour and felt much more confident afterward.
