I am a tenured chemistry professor at a major university with 15 years of experience teaching general chemistry and biochemistry at the undergraduate level. I also have 4 years of experience teaching high school chemistry and 6+ years of tutoring experience. I have a PhD in medicinal chemistry.
Over the years, I’ve worked with students across a wide range of backgrounds—from first-year science majors to pre-med students preparing for exams—and I understand the common points where students tend to struggle.
Throughout my teaching career, I have consistently received strong student evaluations, reflecting a focus on clear explanations and student understanding.
My teaching approach focuses on:
Building clear conceptual understanding rather than memorization
Breaking down complex topics into structured, manageable steps
Connecting problem-solving strategies to exam-style questions
Helping students gain confidence in their ability to reason through chemistry problems
I am especially effective in helping students who feel “lost” in chemistry courses regain clarity and improve their performance on exams.
In tutoring sessions, I aim to create a supportive and efficient learning environment where students can ask questions freely and build genuine confidence in their ability to solve chemistry problems.
Subjects I tutor include:
General Chemistry (all levels)
Biochemistry (all levels)
College-level chemistry exam preparation
MCAT, PCAT, and DAT exam preparation
Conceptual review and problem-solving strategies
My goal is not just to help you complete assignments, but to help you understand chemistry well enough that you can approach new problems and exams with confidence.
Finally, I also have a B.A. in French and love to speak French. If you need help with learning French, I would be happy to assist you.
