Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors serving Virginia

I believe encouraging students to have motivation is the most important thing. I want students to find joy to study and enhance their studying skills. I can direct them and teach studying materials, but how to absorb the knowledge is up to them. I want to help them to have the right motivation and become an active student to achieve their future goals.

Outside of education, I am an advocate of mental and physical health which has helped developed my...

...that learning the concepts behind a subject, rather than memorization, yields a deeper and more meaningful student experience. Within my current department I have worked as a teaching assistant for 3 years in both classroom and one-on-one settings. I tutor both high school and college General Chemistry.

...with evidence, IEP and 504 based supports, home-bound/home-based instruction, and transition support from home-based instruction. It is imperative to begin tutoring by learning about a student overall; yes, this includes all academic aspects, yet knowing who they are outside of that arena provides the foundation for considerate ways to integrate who they are into lessons. Building a strong context regarding the ways in which they, as an individual learn best be it obvious or not,...

The only way to win is through effective collaboration, mental determination, and hard work. I want to work with my mentee to figure...

...I might steer a writing student studying organic chemistry to explain a reaction as a narrative of molecular interactions, rather than beginning with a complex problem. In the context of shifting careers, I have also taken a number of standardized tests, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, and MCAT. My approach with these tests emphasizes strategy over content; a particular vocabulary word may or may not appear on the actual test, but knowledge of how to...

...enhance their problem solving abilities. I recently was able to have a position as an undergraduate TA in a high level organic chemistry class which developed my skills both as an educator and a student, because the two are inseparable.
