I specialize in Physical Chemistry, with focused expertise in areas such as thermodynamics, kinetics, quantum chemistry, spectroscopy, gases, equilibrium, and energy transformations. In addition to Physical Chemistry, I also teach a wide range of core chemistry areas, including: General Chemistry (college-level) AP Chemistry IB Chemistry (SL & HL) High School Chemistry (Honors & Regents-style) Introductory and foundational chemistry skills such as stoichiometry, bonding, periodic trends, acids/bases, and redox reactions. Levels I typically teach High School: AP, IB, Honors, and standard Chemistry courses Undergraduate: General Chemistry I & II, Physical Chemistry I & II Advanced/University-level topics: Thermodynamics, kinetics, quantum mechanics fundamentals, and spectroscopy
I use a combination of digital whiteboards, interactive problem-solving tools, and visual simulations to make abstract Chemistry concepts clearer. During lessons, I rely on Notability, and annotate problem sets for step-by-step explanations. I also use molecular modeling tools, graphing apps, and verified practice databases to give students high-quality exercises and real-time visualizations. All resources are chosen to match each student’s level and learning style.
I take a patient, step-by-step approach that focuses on building true understanding rather than memorization. For students who struggle, I begin by identifying exactly where the confusion starts—whether it’s math skills, missing fundamentals, or difficulty visualizing abstract concepts. I then break topics into clear, manageable pieces and use visual explanations, real-world examples, and guided practice to help everything “click.” I adjust my teaching style to the student’s pace, celebrate small wins to build confidence, and provide structured strategies they can rely on during homework and exams. My goal is to turn Chemistry from something intimidating into something logical, approachable, and even enjoyable.
Yes. As a Physical Chemistry PhD candidate, I have extensive experience with laboratory experiments, data analysis, and scientific methodology. While tutoring, I incorporate this by helping students understand the purpose behind each lab, guiding them through calculations, error analysis, and writing strong lab reports. I also use real experimental examples to connect theory to practice, so students see how concepts like kinetics, equilibrium, and thermodynamics play out in real laboratory settings.
I teach organic chemistry by focusing on patterns, not memorization. I help students understand how structure influences reactivity, so mechanisms and reactions start to make logical sense. I break complex ideas into clear visual steps, use color-coded reaction maps, and relate each concept to real-world applications like pharmaceuticals and materials. To keep lessons engaging, I emphasize mechanism “storytelling,” practice with progressively challenging problems, and show students how to recognize recurring themes such as electron flow, functional groups, and reaction families. This approach makes organic chemistry feel much more intuitive and accessible, even for students who initially find it overwhelming.
I help students prepare for chemistry competitions and academic opportunities by focusing on both mastery and strategy. For competitions, I create targeted problem sets that build advanced problem-solving skills, strengthen fundamentals, and develop speed and accuracy. For college applications or research opportunities, I guide students in showcasing their strengths through well-structured essays, strong lab reports, and clear explanations of their scientific interests. I also provide advice on building a compelling academic profile—selecting challenging coursework, pursuing meaningful projects, and demonstrating genuine curiosity in chemistry—so students feel confident and well-prepared for their next steps.
