Hate chemistry, especially Organic? College Prof here to help
Let's face it, College Gen chem and Orgo are hard. As a former college instructor and private tutor for over 8 years, I know the demands and expectations of professors. Let me help you break down the concepts so that you can understand them and succeed in your class. I've taught general and organic college courses, have worked with upperclassmen college students on how to teach underclassmen gen chem, and created instructional chemistry videos. My favorite subject to teach is Organic, which...

From a D to a B in organic chemistry
I started the summer far behind in chemistry. I barely passed Orgo 1 and I wasn’t able to take the second class in the sequence for close to a year. Cotton not only helped me fill in the gaps in my understanding of Organic 1 but also helped me to master the new material. My scores from my first and second exams of the semester were night and day. I went from struggling with my homework to acing the weekly quizzes. I improved in the foundations of organic chemistry, not just memorizing enough formulas to pass, which wound up being vital to the comprehensive final. Overall, I would highly recommend Cotton, it’s no exaggeration to say it’s thanks to her that I’m graduating college on time.

Knowledgeable and Caring Tutor!!!
Cotton has helped me tremendously in my 8-week summer chemistry course. She has taken many topics that are difficult for me to understand and has broken them down into simpler steps for me. I feel confident when I enter the classroom because I am able to take what I learned from her and apply it to my classwork. She has no problem explaining things to me in multiple ways until I understand the concept. Cotton is a must have tutor when taking Chemistry courses!

Helpful Session with Cotton
Cotton helped me prepare for my final exams for 10th grade Chemistry. Her knowledge helped me feel more confident to go into my exam with ease. Cotton made sure all my questions were answered and explained anything that would help me understand chemistry concepts better. So grateful she was able to help me out!

Excellent Tutor
Cotton was so helpful and made Chemistry so easy to understand for my son in such a short period of time. I wish we would have known her earlier in the year. Highly recommend her!

Outstanding Chemistry Tutor!
Cotton has been one of the best science teachers/tutors my daughter has ever had. My daughter was struggling in Chemistry Honors this year and Cotton has taken the time to understand why my daughter was having difficulty solving problems, and helped her solve each and every problem she needed help with, no matter how difficult. She made sure my daughter understood the problem completely. She remained patient with her even when it took her a long time to grasp a concept and answered every question she had. She was always great about scheduling appointments and always tried to squeeze her in even when her schedule was packed. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

EXCELLENT
My son has really benefited from Cotton. She really teaches the material so a kid can understand. We just tell her the topic they are covering and then she goes through everything that my son needs to know. She's been a Godsend to us.
