Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors
serving Columbia, SC

I am currently a graduate student in Chemical Engineering at the University of Delaware. I am working on using magnetic and flow fields to create advanced materials by directing the self-assembly process of nanoparticles . I have tutored students in Chemistry, Physics and Math all throughout undergraduate and graduate work. I truly enjoy breaking material down into its core components that allows the students to understand complicated information.

Biology research through the American Museum of Natural History and pre-med coursework at Cornell gave Krishna hands-on exposure to the thermodynamic and kinetic principles that p-chem formalizes — energy changes in biological systems, reaction rates, equilibrium behavior. She uses that life-science grounding to make topics like Gibbs free energy and rate laws feel like descriptions of real molecular events rather than pure derivation exercises.

I am pursuing a career in dentistry/oral surgery and will be beginning dental school at Boston University this fall. For this reason I recently took the DAT, which I am capable of assisting you with as well. During my undergraduate education, which I completed this past December, I worked in my school's tutoring center, helping my peers succeed in mathematics and science courses. Outside of my academic life, I am a big sports fan and I mostly follow the New York sports teams. For fun, I like to play basketball and golf with my friends. I am looking forward towards getting to know you and helping you with your academic needs.

A PhD in chemistry means Justin didn't just pass p-chem — he lived in its formalism for years, from quantum mechanical models to statistical thermodynamics, and then kept using it through doctoral research. That depth shows when he teaches: he can trace a concept like chemical potential or a Maxwell relation back to the physical picture driving the math, catching the exact step where a student's understanding breaks down. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am a public school teacher (Chemistry and Living Environment) but can tutor most sciences. I truly believe in differentiated learning and once I know the learning style of a student, I tailor my teaching style for optimum time usage. I love to utilize stories from my real life experiences in labs to help students understand the implications of their science education.

Between biochemistry, organic chemistry, and physical chemistry, Samantha sits at the intersection where biology meets the math-heavy formalism of thermodynamics and kinetics — she understands both the molecular systems and the derivations that describe them. She breaks apart intimidating topics like Gibbs free energy or chemical equilibria by tying each variable back to the biological and chemical processes students already recognize from earlier coursework. Rated 5.0 by students.

Two biomedical engineering degrees mean Allyson has been doing the calculus-heavy thermodynamics and kinetics work that p-chem formalizes — modeling energy transfer in biological systems, working through rate equations for physiological processes — since undergrad. She zeroes in on the specific mathematical step where a derivation goes from followable to opaque, whether that's a tricky partial derivative in a Maxwell relation or the statistical reasoning inside a Boltzmann distribution. Rated 4.9 by students.

Cornell's chemical engineering curriculum puts you through p-chem at an intense pace — Rahul graduated magna cum laude, which means he didn't just survive thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and kinetics but internalized the reasoning behind each derivation. He pushes past rote symbol manipulation to make sure students can articulate why a particular state function applies or what a phase boundary physically represents. Rated 4.9 by students.

Biology coursework builds a surprising amount of p-chem intuition — enzyme kinetics, membrane energetics, and metabolic thermodynamics all run on the same free energy and rate equations that dominate a physical chemistry sequence. Ade uses that biological grounding to make abstract derivations tangible, turning something like a Boltzmann distribution into a concrete picture of how molecules actually partition energy across states.

Having studied quantum mechanics and electromagnetism as part of his physics degree, Michael already speaks the mathematical language that makes p-chem so demanding — the wave equations, the statistical distributions, the calculus buried inside every thermodynamic derivation. He teaches from the physics side in, explaining why a Boltzmann distribution or a partition function behaves the way it does before layering on the chemical context that gives it practical meaning.

Pursuing a dual Ph.D./Pharm.D. at UConn with graduate work in medicinal chemistry means Xhesika encounters the thermodynamic and kinetic formalism of p-chem as daily working tools — calculating drug stability, modeling reaction pathways, predicting how molecular interactions shift with temperature and pressure. She teaches derivations like Maxwell relations and Clausius-Clapeyron by tying each variable back to the pharmacological systems where she actually uses them, so the math carries chemical weight instead of feeling like abstract symbol-pushing.

Thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, kinetics — physical chemistry is where math and chemistry collide, and most students need a tutor comfortable in both languages. Natasha's chemical engineering degree gave her deep fluency with partition functions, phase diagrams, and rate laws, and her MIT graduate work keeps those concepts sharp. She approaches p-chem by deriving key equations alongside students so the physics behind each formula becomes visible.
