" I have donated many hours teaching at grade and high schools on various subjects in the U.S. and abroad, many times in several languages. My primary objective is to get students from a basic understanding of the material to a level where they can independently think and apply the material in practical situations or to problem solve. This is one of the greatest goals and benefits of the educational experience."

"I specialize in tutoring High School and Organic Chemistry, though I also tutor in math up to geometry. When I teach and tutor, I try to get my students to go beyond the "plug and chug", memorize-how-to-get-the-answer mode and help them gain a deeper understanding of the systems they are using. When they learn the basic framework of something, be it atomic structure or algebra, and then learn how everything else flows logically from it, students retain information better and can make use of it in new situations. In the classroom and one-on-one, I'm informal, interesting, and lots of fun. I have a lot of experience translating science into ...
