Greetings Students and Parents, I am an experienced Chemistry tutor which have been helping more than 300 students to ace their chemistry class, most of which are High School and College students. I started tutoring Chemistry when I was a senior in high school. Since the first day, chemistry has been my best subject. Some of my peers found chemistry intimidating and struggled to grasp the idea. So, I decided to help and tutor them. As a result, we all ended up pass and received high grades in Chemistry. And I have been tutoring Chemistry since. My tutoring approach is rather simple because I believe in simplicity especially in learning complicated subject like Chemistry. I will first conduct a demo session just to understand the student and let the student be familiar with my teaching strategy. During the demo session, I will try to gain perspective into the student level of knowledge and problem solving methods by asking them questions. I'll create a study schedule and milestones that we'll accomplish during our sessions which is built for each individual student needs. Whether they are visual learners who benefit from diagrams and illustrations, or more auditory learners who prefer lectures and discussions, I tailor my approach to meet their unique needs. To help students fully engage with the material and reinforce their understanding, we will be doing numerical problems related to the particular topic. My session is always interactive rather than me just explaining concepts. I will always leave the student with practice problems to solve which will be optional depending on the students needs. Ultimately, my goal as a chemistry tutor is to help students not only succeed in their coursework but also develop a love and appreciation for the subject. Therefore, if you want to improve your understanding and consequently your grades in any Chemistry class, you can contact me.
