About Taylor


Bio

I have always loved science, which led me to a college major in chemistry. During my time in undergrad I realized I wanted to continue learning so I went on to graduate school and earned a PhD in organic chemistry. While in graduate school I thoroughly enjoyed my time teaching, even earning an education fellowship. Since graduation I have spent seven years teaching lectures, labs, and problem solving sessions in both general and organic chemistry.

I have always loved science, which led me to a college major in chemistry. During my time in undergrad I realized I wanted to continue learning so I went on to graduate school and earned a PhD in organic chemistry. While in graduate school I thoroughly enjoyed my time teaching, even earning an education fellowship. Since graduation I have spent seven years teaching lectures, labs, and problem solving sessions in both general and organic chemistry.

A great teacher can make a world of difference in how students understand and appreciate any subject, especially those in the sciences. In order to effectively teach challenging courses instructors must possess a deep understanding of the subject and be able to convey the material in a clear and logical manner to spark student interest and promote comprehension. I thoroughly enjoy helping students work through chemistry problems to develop a greater grasp of the material.

I have a lot of experience (7+ years) teaching and tutoring general and organic chemistry at the university level. I really love helping students understand chemistry.

If you're struggling with chemistry or want to deepen you knowledge I'd love to help, please contact me for more info!

Great ochem tutor

Taylor definitely saved me some points on my midterm! She was kind and approachable, and explained the topics well. I'm extremely grateful she was able to fit me into her schedule after a very last minute tutoring request. Thanks Taylor!

Awesome instructor!

She’s great at clarifying! She really helps me visualize problems and figure out what to study. She’s very efficient at teaching, but doesn’t make me feel rushed at all.

Patient and Insightful

Taylor did an amazing job going over everything I learned in my organic chem module 1 lesson to help me get a better understanding of the material that I felt comfortable taking my first exam. She answered all of my questions and if I wasn't understanding something she explained it with a different approach that helped me grasp the material. I'm sure I'll be reaching out to Taylor throughout the rest of the semester in order to stay confident with the material since chemistry has always been a weak topic of mine.

Awesome!!

I had no idea what was going on for my chem unit (quantum mechanics) and Taylor helped me understand how all of the equations connect, and helped me make a visual picture of what was going on for each problem. She's very patient and thorough and made sure I understood what was going on before moving to the next concept.
