About Scott


Bio

Hi, I'm Scott! I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Chemistry.
In college, my favorite instructors paid attention when students struggled and tailored their teaching to help everyone succeed. I learned best from them. In contrast, some professors lectured at the whiteboard without checking if anyone was following. Those classes felt like disjointed "information dumps" that were hard to piece together.

Hi, I'm Scott! I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Chemistry.
In college, my favorite instructors paid attention when students struggled and tailored their teaching to help everyone succeed. I learned best from them. In contrast, some professors lectured at the whiteboard without checking if anyone was following. Those classes felt like disjointed "information dumps" that were hard to piece together.
Once I really understood the material, I started helping classmates who were stuck. After several asked why I wasn't tutoring at the campus center, I gave it a shot, and loved it. I realized I could take intimidating subjects and give people the time and space to actually learn.
My approach is simple: I help you connect personally with what you're learning. Many of the students I've worked with came in thinking the class was "just a prerequisite" or that they "weren't good at it." I helped them move past those stories and get comfortable—even confident—with tough material.
I tutor Pre-Algebra through Calculus II, plus General and Organic Chemistry. Let's make these subjects click for you!
