Bio

Although I am currently a Senior Analytical Chemist, I was a high school certified chemistry teacher in Romania for four years, before coming to the United States. While working as a teacher, I also tutored a number of high school students in Inorganic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, and especially Organic Chemistry, as well as in math.

Although I am currently a Senior Analytical Chemist, I was a high school certified chemistry teacher in Romania for four years, before coming to the United States. While working as a teacher, I also tutored a number of high school students in Inorganic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, and especially Organic Chemistry, as well as in math. I had a lot of success with students considered to be at the lowest level of the class by their teachers. It turned out that a little one on one attention, as well as a lot of encouragement throughout the process gave unexpected results, and all of my students started growing before my eyes, and became more confident. They had improved their grades considerably, and some of them even went on to attend higher education schools. Two of my students who started from the very bottom, became very knowledgeable and capable to tutor themselves their classmates in the subject.
What helped me have those results with my students were a number of factors:
1. a very good understanding of the subject
2. trying to understand my students’ needs by trying to figure out what they do not understand, what they do not know
3. trying to explain everything in a way they can understand
4. a lot of patience and dedication
I am looking forward to start tutoring again, as I feel that I have a lot to give, and this process of giving is extremely satisfying and fulfilling.

Wonderful tutor - Knowledgeable, Patient & Encouraging!

Claudia is a phenomenal tutor! Her knowledge and skill-set helped me to understand the subject matter. Of equal importance, her patience and encouragement gave me the confidence in myself that was also very fundamental to my ability to do well in this class. Claudia offered thorough explanations to all of my questions and did a lot of preparation prior to each session to ensure that our sessions were productive and that I would have information to refer back to afterwards. Through working with Claudia, I was not only able to come out of the class with a good grade, but I was also able to find a level of interest and appreciation for the subject that I never thought I would. I highly recommend Claudia as a tutor. She is very flexible, always made herself available, and genuinely believed in me and wanted to see me succeed. For those to whom the difficult science courses do not always come naturally - such as myself - Claudia provides a combination of subject specific study skills, explanation, demonstration and a much needed morale boost that will help any student excel. Thank you so much, Claudia, for all of your wonderful help!

Amazing Tutor

Thank you, Claudia, for being so helpful and patient teacher! When my child was in a big stress to handle a very busy work schedule and difficult classes, Claudia brought her to a confident high performer with the first lessons. She diligently worked with the student on all assignments to make sure thorough understanding of challenging material including lab work. My child smiled and was able to sleep well! No words can describe how truly thankful I’m!

Excellent

My son really enjoys his studies with Mrs Claudia. She is patient and helpful. My son is a young chemistry student so I appreciate her assistance and expertise.

Great chemistry tutor

Claudia helped my daughter from the first chemistry lesson. She dived right into the correction of her test and then explained her the lesson that she did not understand when her teacher explained her in class. My daughter said that Claudia is patient, funny and great at explaining things in a way that is understandable.
