Award-Winning Chemistry Tutors
serving North Las Vegas, NV

I'm a 2016 graduate of Pepperdine University with my Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry. Currently I'm preparing to apply to optometry school; I hope to be accepted for the 2018-19 academic year. During my time in college, I was involved as a teaching assistant for General Chemistry I and II laboratory, as a tutor for General Chemistry I, as a member of the Regents Scholar Student Board, and as a "small group" leader through multiple organizations. I am a member of the sorority Pi Beta Phi and held the positions of Historian, Senior Transition Leader, and member of the Leadership and Nominating Committee during my undergraduate years. As far as tutoring goes, I offer my services to students of all ages and in numerous subjects. I particularly enjoy tutoring the STEM subjects. I also thoroughly enjoy working with female STEM students, which allows me to serve as a role model and to offer additional encouragement for my female students to not lose interest in STEM subjects. A large part of my tutoring style focuses on logical thinking for how to tackle new and difficult problems using previous knoledge and educated hypotheses; I have found that my students find both success and a boost in confidence using my methodology. Aside from my academic interests, I love cooking and baking, my cat, photography, and National Parks.

Tim taught chemistry to middle and high school students at a STEM summer camp, where he learned to explain concepts like stoichiometry and molecular bonding without relying on the textbook's notation-heavy approach. His computational science background at MIT also means he's comfortable with the quantitative side — equilibrium calculations, thermodynamics, and kinetics — that trips up students transitioning from conceptual to problem-solving chemistry.

Stoichiometry, equilibrium, and acid-base chemistry each demand a slightly different way of thinking, and Cassandra adjusts her approach depending on which concept a student is wrestling with — dimensional analysis drills for stoich, ICE table walkthroughs for equilibrium, and proton-transfer logic for acids and bases. Her 4.9 rating comes from making these shifts feel natural rather than overwhelming. With a biology degree and experience across analytical and AP-level chemistry, she brings real depth to the subject.

Holding a Master's in Chemistry, Shawn has the depth to teach everything from nomenclature and Lewis structures through kinetics and electrochemistry — and the range to adjust whether a student is in honors, AP, or IB Chemistry. He's particularly strong at diagnosing where a concept breaks down, then rebuilding the reasoning step by step so the next topic doesn't collapse on a shaky foundation. Rated 4.9 by students.

From balancing redox equations to predicting whether a reaction is spontaneous using Gibbs free energy, general chemistry asks students to juggle math, conceptual reasoning, and memorization all at once. Michael tackles this by anchoring each new topic to something concrete — connecting gas law calculations to real experimental setups, or explaining periodic trends through electron shielding rather than rote charts. His science background and comfort with math-heavy problem solving make him especially effective for students struggling with quantitative chemistry.

Every chemistry concept Andrea learned at UCLA had a physiological payoff — acid-base equilibria explained blood buffering, thermodynamics explained enzyme kinetics, and molecular geometry explained drug-receptor binding. She brings that same approach to tutoring, anchoring stoichiometry, bonding, and reaction mechanisms in concrete examples that give students a reason to care about the math behind the molecules.

Kyle has completed multiple upper-level chemistry courses as part of his forensic science program, covering everything from stoichiometry and equilibrium to organic reaction mechanisms. He approaches problem sets by connecting the math behind a concept to what's actually happening at the molecular level, which makes balancing equations and predicting products feel less arbitrary.

Stoichiometry, electron configurations, acid-base equilibria — chemistry demands comfort with both conceptual models and precise calculations. Aaron's engineering coursework required heavy chemistry training, and he applies that dual fluency when walking students through balancing reactions or predicting molecular geometry. He's especially effective at bridging the gap between understanding a concept qualitatively and executing it on paper.

I'm Kat. I'm a math and science enthusiast with a passion for helping others understand and appreciate the science (and its applications) of our fascinating world.

I am currently a Biology major at the University of Nevada Las Vegas. I am in the process of switching into Computer Science. My background is primarily in the sciences and math, mostly Biology and Chemistry. I also am proficient in Spanish; I have received two awards from the National Spanish exam and I passed the AP Spanish and Culture exam. Prior to college, I graduated with an Advanced Honors Diploma from Northwest Career and Technical Academy under the program area of Biotechnology. I have some tutoring experience with my peers and with friends of the family. Outside of school, my hobbies include video games and digital media.

Balancing equations, stoichiometry, and the mole concept trip students up because they require toggling between the macroscopic and the molecular. Nathaniel unpacks each conversion step-by-step, connecting what happens in a beaker to what's happening at the atomic level. His Biomedical Engineering doctorate gave him years of applied chemistry experience that keeps explanations grounded and practical.

Mole conversions, reaction types, gas laws — chemistry is full of concepts that seem disconnected until someone shows you the thread running through them. Amber excels at making those connections explicit, walking students through dimensional analysis and molecular interactions in a way that clicks. She tutors across math and science subjects, which means she's comfortable tackling the quantitative side of chemistry head-on.

Stoichiometry, equilibrium, and thermodynamics all click faster when a student sees how they connect to real systems — and Kate's environmental engineering background means she can tie every chemistry concept to tangible processes like water treatment or combustion reactions. She breaks down dimensional analysis and reaction balancing into repeatable steps that build genuine confidence on exams.

Balancing equations, understanding molarity, and predicting reaction products all require a mental model of what atoms are actually doing — not just symbol shuffling on paper. Devon's pre-medical training at Vanderbilt means she's spent years applying chemistry concepts in biological and clinical contexts, which gives her a practical vocabulary for explaining why reactions behave the way they do. She's especially strong at connecting stoichiometry to lab scenarios that make the math meaningful.

Political science might seem far from chemistry, but Asta's 35 ACT — including the Science section — required quick, accurate reasoning through data-heavy passages on reaction rates, gas behavior, and experimental design. She applies that same structured, analytical approach to breaking down chemistry problems like dimensional analysis and mole conversions, making the logic behind each step visible. Rated 5.0 by students.

Premed coursework demands a deep understanding of chemistry, from thermodynamics and equilibrium to acid-base reactions and electrochemistry. Nishad tackles these topics by linking abstract concepts to tangible applications — explaining buffer systems through blood pH regulation, or teaching reaction kinetics through enzyme behavior.

Balancing equations and predicting reaction products require a kind of pattern recognition that doesn't come naturally to most students. Erica digs into stoichiometry, equilibrium, and acid-base chemistry by connecting each concept to a tangible example — something her predentistry background makes second nature. She graduated with high honors from Harvard and is entering Columbia's dental program, so she's lived the chemistry-heavy coursework her students are navigating.

Sanjana's applied math background at Harvard gives her a quantitative lens on chemistry — she's especially effective at breaking down stoichiometry, equilibrium calculations, and unit analysis into logical steps. She treats chemistry problem sets the way she treats math: find the pattern, set up the framework, then solve.

As a certified chemistry teacher running a 12th-grade course at one of Philadelphia's top magnet schools, Kathleen tackles everything from stoichiometry and gas laws to electrochemistry and organic functional groups. She connects each concept to lab-scale reasoning — predicting what should happen, explaining what actually did, and figuring out why they sometimes differ.

Balancing equations and memorizing the periodic table are just the entry point — chemistry gets interesting when students start predicting what happens during a reaction and why. Jonathan digs into stoichiometry, acid-base equilibria, and bonding theory by connecting each concept to observable phenomena, an approach shaped by his extensive lab experience in Cornell's science program.

Balancing equations and memorizing solubility rules only gets a student so far — real chemistry understanding means seeing why ionic compounds dissolve or how electron configurations predict reactivity. Viraj connects these ideas back to the periodic table's structure, giving students a mental map they can use on any problem from mole conversions to acid-base titrations.

The periodic table isn't just a chart to memorize — it's a map that predicts bonding behavior, reactivity, and molecular geometry if you know how to read it. Matthew teaches chemistry through that lens, connecting electron configuration to the "why" behind everything from Lewis structures to acid-base reactions. His biochemistry research at Yale keeps these ideas grounded in real applications.

A chemistry degree from Yale means Zosia has spent serious time with stoichiometry, equilibrium, acid-base theory, and thermochemistry — the exact topics that tend to make or break a student's grade. She approaches each concept by building up from the atomic level, so balancing equations or predicting reaction products starts to feel like reasoning rather than guesswork. Rated 4.9 by students.
