Hello. I'm John and I have 42 years of experience in education. I have taught honors and general chemistry and AP chemistry (certified by the College Board as an AP Chem teacher) for 18 years in a public high school followed by 12 years teaching in a private school where I also taught middle school Physical Science. I also taught freshman college chemistry for 4 years a local community college. In addition, I was a high school assistant principal for 12 years as well as Science Supervisor for both middle and high school.

In my teaching I have developed a strategy (not found in texts) for solving problems in chemistry and physics that will guarantee the student a correct answer.

I hold an M.S. in chemistry, a B.S. in Education as well as certifications as a science supervisor and secondary principal.

Knowledgeable and helpful tutor

John helped me understand some concepts I was struggling with in a Chemistry unit. John has an excellent understanding of AP Chemistry and provided explanations both verbally and mathematically. He helped me complete a challenging homework assignment and feel more prepared for an upcoming test.

Good coach for Chemistry

John was a tutor for my high school daughter for several months. He is very knowledgeable in the subject, and explained the concepts well. John answered my daughter's questions and doubts clearly, patiently and with the right level of subject depth needed for her to do well at school. I sincerely thank him for his work with my daughter.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

My son feels that John is very helpful in his Chemistry learning. John can explain it clearly and slowly. It is important for him since he did not learn some of the topics before. My son is looking forward to learning with John.

Super Clear Explainations, Very Thougrouh and Patient

John helped me catch up in my honors chemistry class, he made the topics I was struggling with like balancing equations and chemical reactions finally "click". His explanations were very clear and thorough I look forward to working with him in the future. Thanks a ton John!
