Nima

Certified Tutor

With over a decade of experience in physical chemistry and scientific research, I've come to deeply value the transformative power of education. My passion for tutoring stems from a simple truth I've seen time and again students thrive when they are met with curiosity, patience, and genuine encouragement.

Throughout my academic journeyfrom earning my Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry at Rice University to leading research on nanotechnology and spectroscopy I've consistently found joy in mentoring students. Whether I'm guiding undergraduates through the fundamentals of chemical analysis or helping advanced learners visualize quantum mechanics with custom-built simulations, I tailor every session to match the student's pace and goals.

I tutor subjects such as chemistry and physics with a particular love for physical chemistry and spectroscopy. These fields captivate me because they bridge theory and application, allowing students to see the real-world implications of abstract concepts.

My teaching philosophy centers on clarity, engagement, and empathy. I believe in fostering an open environment where questions are welcomed and mistakes are steppingstones. By breaking complex topics into digestible parts and using real-world analogies, I aim to build both understanding and confidence in my students.
