...favorite subject to tutor is organic chemistry because I find it fun like a puzzle. As a tutor, I like to push students outside of their comfort zone and give them challenging practice problems to try, providing aid along the way but otherwise allowing the student to lead the session. I worked as a supplemental instructor (group tutor) in organic chemistry at SLU for 2 years and helped facilitate the chemistry labs there as well....

Thermodynamics Tutoring FAQ
Thermodynamics, a branch of physics, relates heat and temperature to energy and work. It applies to various aspects of science and engineering. If any aspect of physical chemistry, chemical engineering, or mechanical engineering challenge you in relation to thermodynamics, Varsity Tutors can set you up with a thermodynamics tutor who can help.
Many topics can be covered in thermodynamics tutoring, so your tutor can explain:
Laws of thermodynamics
Branches of thermodynamics
The essentials of temperature
Energy and heat
Liquids and solids
Gases and gas laws
Thermodynamic processes
Instrumentation
Going at your pace and factoring in your individual learning style, college thermodynamics tutoring can cover the four laws that govern thermodynamics. These include the first law of thermodynamics that expresses the conservation of energy (energy can be transformed but not created or destroyed). The second law states that heat can't spontaneously flow from a cold to a hot location, while the third law states all processes cease as a system approaches absolute zero. Your tutor can explain these, if needed, and the Zeroth law of thermodynamics. It states that if two systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third, they are also so with one another.
There's much more that thermodynamics tutoring can cover. Individualized study sessions may include practice with units of measurement. You may apply these to measuring length, weight, capacity, or time. Different temperature units may be explained as well. If you understand measurements but haven't yet reached your learning goals with equilibrium or processes that include adiabatic, isenthalpic, isobaric, or isothermal processes, your tutor can spend as much time as needed on them, rather than rush through everything to keep up with the curriculum.
Whether you need more guidance with conjugate variables or thermodynamics potentials, your thermodynamics tutor can work with you accordingly. Perhaps you are more interested in a specific branch, whether it be classical, chemical, or equilibrium thermodynamics or statistical mechanics. Your tutor can teach by example and apply your interests to help build motivation and confidence.
