Certified Tutor

Hi! I'm Leighton, and I specialize in helping students truly understand and master physics, math, and organic chemistry. I am currently a chemical engineering undergraduate at the University of Texas at Austin, where I developed both a deep understanding of the material and a passion for teaching it to others.

With 2 years of tutoring experience, I tailor each session to meet the unique learning style and goals of every student. Whether you're aiming to boost your grades, prep for a big exam, or build long-term confidence in a subject, I focus on clear explanations, active learning, and a supportive, judgment-free environment.

I've worked with students from elementary school through college, and I believe that with the right guidance, anyone can succeed in even the toughest subjects. Let's work together to turn confusion into confidence and reach your academic goals!
