Why am I different from all other tutors?
I am different because I only teach chemistry. Most tutors will teach a whole list of subjects.
I only teach chemistry as this is the subject I am most qualified to teach. I was educated in England which often means I have different and better ways of explaining things.

My background.
My degree is from England, I gained the highest grade possible in my degree and it was a pure chemistry degree. These means I only learned the 3 branches of chemistry (O-chem {organic}, inorganic and physical) and biochemistry.
I also have a PhD in organic / medicinal chemistry.

In addition I tutored for 4 years during my PhD. I have also been tutoring in USA, both privately and through agencies.

I also have several years of real life experience doing research in both industry and university settings.

What courses do I tutor?
I can tutor any school level chemistry (this includes AP, honors, IB etc)
I can also tutor any level general chemistry college (currently tutoring CHM101, CHM 130, CHM116 from ASU and MCC)
I can also tutor any organic chemistry college level course (this is my specialty, I tend to have a much better understanding of this area than most tutors since I actually did 6 semesters of organic chemistry as an undergraduate as well as having my PhD in the subject) (currently chm 234, 235, 236)
I can also help with the chemistry area of tests such as the MCAT and DAT

What style of tutoring do I use?

I adapt to suit the need of my students I particularly enjoy getting back to basics in both general and organic chemistry as these are the true building blocks to expand your knowledge on. I love it when students suddenly get new concepts and everything clicks into place.

Examples of common topics.
stoichiometry, gas laws, thermodynamics, chemical bonding and VSPER theory, acid/base chemistry, kinetics, equilibrium etc.
Arrow pushing, nucleophilic and electrophilic addition. Carbonyl chemistry etc

Where do I tutor?
If possible I prefer to tutor my first session in a public place. I have tutored in sunset library, downtown chandler, tempe, MCC and ASU area.

My strength lies in the ability to explain organic chemistry into simple language.

In tutoring session I explain topics and go over exams and homework.
I am willing to answer questions via email in between regular sessions.
