Experience

I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Maryland in chemistry and my graduate degree from the University of Wisconsin. I have spent several semesters teaching chemistry to undergraduate students and I've also spent time tutoring individual students. I currently tutor students in the subjects of chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, honors chemistry, science, and quantitative reasoning. I also help students prepare for the GRE subject test in chemistry, the quantitative portion of the GRE, and various other GRE and SAT subjects. I find general chemistry to be the most fascinating topic because it lays the foundation for all of the other subcategories of the field. It is within general chemistry studies one begins discussing the chemical reactions which occur between molecules. However, I do enjoy helping students who have found a more specific specialty such as physical or organic chemistry. My teaching and tutoring experience has taught me that the most effective way to relay information about chemistry is to combine problem solving and conceptual discussions. I've also found that it is important to make these concepts relatable to the student's own life. Because of this, I take the time to get to know my students so I know exactly how to present the information to them that will make it easier to understand.
