Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors

Earning a B.S. in Chemistry means Uttam has worked through the thermodynamics, kinetics, and quantum mechanics sequence firsthand — he knows exactly where a derivation like the Clausius-Clapeyron equation starts losing students and how to rebuild the logic step by step. His broad teaching range across calculus, algebra, and multiple chemistry levels keeps him sharp at bridging the math-chemistry gap that makes p-chem uniquely difficult.

A PhD in chemical engineering means Alexander spent years deriving and applying the exact thermodynamic frameworks — equations of state, phase equilibria, transport phenomena — that p-chem students encounter stripped of their engineering context. His biosystems engineering background adds a second layer, connecting statistical mechanics and kinetics to real molecular systems rather than leaving them as abstract formalisms. Rated 4.9 by students.

Computational linguistics might seem far from p-chem, but Justin's SAT-level math chops and his chemistry coursework give him enough quantitative grounding to tackle the foundational concepts — working through state functions, basic thermodynamic relationships, and the algebra behind equilibrium expressions. He's strongest at slowing down the notation-heavy steps that lose students early in a p-chem sequence, making sure each symbol maps to something physically real before moving forward.

Mechanical engineering at Rice means Aleksey has been solving thermodynamic cycles, heat transfer problems, and differential equations for years — the exact mathematical toolkit that p-chem throws at students in a chemistry wrapper. He breaks down topics like entropy, enthalpy, and phase equilibria by treating them as engineering problems first, then layering in the molecular-level chemistry that gives each variable its meaning. Rated 5.0 by students.

An applied mathematics degree plus active graduate math coursework gives Drisana the calculus fluency that p-chem demands — she's comfortable with the differential equations, multivariable integrals, and linear algebra that show up in everything from quantum mechanical wave functions to statistical thermodynamics. Where many chemistry students struggle because the math outpaces them, she tackles derivations from the opposite direction, building physical meaning onto mathematical structures she already knows cold. Rated 5.0 by students.

P-chem is where thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and kinetics collide, and most students feel overwhelmed by the math intensity alone. Jacob's biochemistry-emphasis BS in Chemistry means he tackled these derivations firsthand — from partition functions to the Schrödinger equation — and he's skilled at unpacking the physical meaning behind each equation so the math stops feeling arbitrary. Rated 5.0 by students.

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.

This is Jacob's home turf. He earned his Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from UC Berkeley and now conducts research at Northwestern, so topics like quantum mechanics, statistical thermodynamics, and spectroscopy are part of his everyday work. He walks students through the math-heavy derivations that make p-chem notoriously difficult, connecting each equation back to the physical picture it describes.

Teaching high school chemistry daily means Kathleen regularly translates thermodynamic concepts like enthalpy, entropy, and equilibrium into language that clicks — a skill that carries directly into the more calculus-heavy treatment those same ideas get in a p-chem course. Her M.S.Ed from Penn and chemistry degree give her both the content depth and the instinct for spotting exactly where a derivation stops making sense to a student. 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.

Medical school at Tufts demands fluency in the thermodynamics and kinetics that p-chem students dread — Eric works through Gibbs free energy calculations, entropy-driven processes, and rate equations daily in a clinical science context, which keeps the material grounded rather than purely abstract. His economics background also sharpens the kind of quantitative modeling and equilibrium thinking that translates surprisingly well to topics like chemical potential and phase diagrams.

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.
