Bio

I have taught IB Chemistry and AP Chemistry at top international schools around the world for 26 years and I am now teaching Chemistry back in Texas where my own children are attending university. I simply love helping students reach that "light bulb" moment when they truly understand something they had previously struggled with.

I have taught IB Chemistry and AP Chemistry at top international schools around the world for 26 years and I am now teaching Chemistry back in Texas where my own children are attending university. I simply love helping students reach that "light bulb" moment when they truly understand something they had previously struggled with. My long experience and expertise in the subject allow me to adapt my teaching style to meet the needs of individual students, and my teaching style recognizes the importance of the work while combining warmth and humor to promote a positive and engaging atmosphere. As a result my students have enjoyed learning chemistry while also doing well on exams and internal assessment and going on to prestigious universities and meaningful careers around the world.

I am a certified chemistry teacher in Texas and Montana and I have taught IB Chemistry, pre-AP Chemistry and AP Chemistry and British A-Level Chemistry as well as IB MYP Science, Physical Science, Integrated Science and International General Certificate of Education (IGCSE) Chemistry and Physics. I have taught in two U.S. states as well as five countries in Europe, South America, South Asia, the Middle East and the Asian Pacific.

So reach out and let me know what you need or let me help you figure that out. I can offer assistance with content, exam techniques and preparation and internal assessment. I look forward to working with you and giving you the help that you deserve.

Outstanding tutor

Experienced and extremely helpful, and has already much helped my son after only one class. Tommie is very responsive and does everything he can to help my son get the most out of their tutoring times. He makes intimidating subject matter look manageable and he is very friendly.

Very helpful with just one session

Tommie was able to diagnose where my son had gotten off track with his science work and get him right back on track. Very appreciative of both the knowledge he brings and as well as the patience and understanding to engage a teenager!
