...relevant it is, and how it is an accumuluation of every science you learn in undergraduate course work. My teaching philosophy is that I want my students to enjoy what they are learning and to feel good about themselves, as it is okay to make mistakes, and you can always improve no matter the mindset. As far as my interests outside of Academia, I love music and technology, as well as being a soccer fanatic.

Nuclear Chemistry Tutoring FAQ
Have you ever wondered about the reactions that power the sun? Or how scientists can figure out the age of fossils, or estimate the age of the universe? The answers to these questions and more can be found through the study of nuclear chemistry. Learning about the chemical principles that underlie nuclear energy, as well as the variety of technologies that apply it, can allow you to better understand prevalent scientific concepts such as radiation, fission and fusion, half-lives, critical mass, the mass defect, radiocarbon dating, and more. The course is filled with a variety of difficult concepts that many students may find counterintuitive. A personal tutor can be just the resource to help you improve your skills in class.
Even if you haven't had trouble in chemistry classes before, switching over from the mindset of learning general chemistry to that of learning nuclear chemistry can present quite a challenge. Instead of working at the molecular or macro level of chemistry, you are suddenly required to work at the subatomic level and keep track of the distinct properties of alpha, beta, and gamma radiation, as well as master the notation required for these phenomena - and this is all before you even study any of the underlying processes! If you could use a little guidance in your class or unit on nuclear chemistry, Varsity Tutors can help you connect with a nuclear chemistry tutor anywhere in the nation who can help you make sense of this important, but often difficult, subject.
Your tutor can design your sessions to help you make sense of the particular topics and concepts that you don't understand. Educational directors can help you select the nuclear chemistry tutor who is best suited to helping you reach your goals, whether those goals involve achieving academic success in a class, understanding the subject for a project, or preparing for a career in nuclear chemistry or engineering. Varsity Tutors' educational directors work with you to create a student profile that can provide many of the important details your tutor will need to craft a custom-tailored tutoring plan that is suited to your needs. The purpose of this specialized plan is to break away from the one-size-fits-all methods offered at traditional schools. Instead, your learning plan focuses on the information you haven't fully mastered. Your tutor is aware of your schedule, testing dates, and other details that can impact your needs during a tutoring session.
During each of your tutoring sessions, you can have your instructor's full attention and work at your own pace. There is no pressure to rush through concepts in order to keep up with a class or study group, you have the time to ask all of the questions that come up during your learning process, and your tutor can provide feedback on your work as you go along, correcting any misunderstandings early on before they cause confusion later. You can schedule your sessions to take place at the times and locations that work best for you - even in person in your home or face-to-face online! An online and in-person tutoring session works in the same way. You receive instant feedback, study materials, assessments, and more to ensure that you remain on track to achieve your educational goals.
Your sessions are directed by your needs. If you have a test approaching, your tutor can help you prepare for it. In addition, you are able to request more or fewer sessions as your needs change.
Don't struggle with nuclear chemistry more than you have to, when an experienced tutor can guide you through the subjects most difficult concepts. Contact Varsity Tutors' educational directors in your area today for more information!

Recent Nuclear Chemistry Tutoring Session Notes
Today was an excellent day for the student. He was so focused and worked so hard. We went through geometry homework today. Then we did a review of biology, including DNA, RNA transcription, translation. The student did well reviewing with biology, especially if I drew out the above steps in picture form. We also spent time doing his government homework on budgeting finances for a family. We are still waiting on the score from last week's geometry test. He is doing a great deal of reviewing for both biology and English for the exam. We are going to use the rubrics and handouts from biology to review for his finals starting now as well.
Finished with her AP exam so we are now moving onto her biology end of the term exam. She will have no issues passing so we just need to go through everything and make sure there are no holes in her knowledge.
We covered mostly taxonomy and binomial nomenclature, the species domains and their characteristics, cladistic phylogeny, and classification of species. We will continue to work on understanding the differences in the classification systems.
The student and I started with reviewing immune and lymphatic system for her biology test tomorrow. We took extra time to relate the ELISA test for HIV with immune system reactions.
The student had what she thought was a quick question about a problem she did not understand in geometry with secants, tangents, and chords. She had missed more than she realized in class. I gave her a brief overview of the concepts and equations she missed. We went over several basic examples, which the student did very well with.
For the first session, the student and I covered a part of what he learned at the beginning of his semester, Meiosis and Reproduction. I also help him a little with his current material, Geologic Time and Mass Extinctions. I left him to finish the last bits of his homework, and to read and try finish a few of his late assignments.
Today we covered nutrition and the human genome. During the first half of the session, we went over different types of nutrients, including carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, etc. The emphasis here was on the functions of these nutrients. During the second half, we went over chromosomes and genetic disorders. I didn't notice the students struggle with anything in particular, but he is definitely going to need to remember a lot of material for upcoming tests.
