Educational Background
I hold a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Pennsylvania, with advanced training across general chemistry and physical chemistry, and related sub-disciplines. My academic background emphasizes both conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills, with a strong focus on preparing students for rigorous exams.
Teaching & Tutoring Experience
I am a college chemistry professor with 10+ years of teaching experience. I have taught General Chemistry I & II. My teaching approach focuses on building deep conceptual understanding, identifying common misconceptions, and guiding students through systematic problem-solving rather than rote memorization.
In tutoring, I tailor sessions to each student’s course, textbook, and exam style. I use guided practice, visual explanations, and targeted questioning to help students gain confidence and perform consistently on assessments.
Context & Student Experience
I have taught and worked with students ranging from high school (AP Chemistry) to college undergraduates, including pre-med, pre-health, and STEM majors. My experience includes:
Classroom instruction in college lecture and recitation settings.
One-on-one tutoring, both in person and online.
Supporting students during midterms, finals, and cumulative exams.
Online sessions are interactive and structured, and I provide clear explanations, worked examples, and follow-up strategies students can apply independently.
