Alina
Certified College Chemistry Tutor
Alina
BA University of Georgia
5+ Years Tutoring

Being on the pre-med track in biology at UGA means Alina is taking college chemistry alongside the same students she tutors — she knows which topics are tripping people up right now, whether it's electron configurations, VSEPR theory, or enthalpy calculations. That real-time familiarity with the coursework lets her zero in on exactly where a concept stopped making sense instead of over-explaining material a student already has down. Rated 5.0 by students.

Yasheen
BA Yale University
6+ Years Tutoring

Working in a cancer biology research lab means Yasheen uses gen chem principles — reaction kinetics, buffer systems, molecular interactions — as practical tools every day, not abstract problem sets. Her dual biology degrees from Yale gave her the cellular and molecular depth to explain why concepts like electronegativity or thermodynamic favorability matter once students move into upper-level science. Rated 5.0 by students.

Jonathan
BA Carleton College
14+ Years Tutoring

A physics and astronomy degree means Jonathan learned chemistry through the lens of energy, matter, and quantitative reasoning — so he tackles college chemistry topics like thermochemistry, gas laws, and atomic structure by grounding them in the physical principles that make them intuitive rather than abstract. He's especially sharp at bridging the gap when students can handle the chemistry concepts but get lost in the math, or vice versa.

Jessica
BA Mercer University
14+ Years Tutoring

Jessica's pre-med coursework at Mercer included a chemistry minor, which means she's spent serious time with topics like thermodynamics, equilibrium, and organic reaction mechanisms — not just in lecture but in lab. She breaks down problems by connecting molecular-level behavior to the math behind it, making concepts like Gibbs free energy and electrochemistry click rather than feel like formula memorization.

Shih
BA University of Georgia
14+ Years Tutoring

General chemistry at the college level moves fast, and topics like thermodynamics, kinetics, and acid-base equilibria build on each other in ways that punish gaps. Shih is completing his own chemistry degree at the University of Georgia, so he knows exactly where the common pitfalls are — from setting up ICE tables correctly to applying Le Chatelier's principle under exam pressure.

Eugene
BA Emory University • Doctor of Philosophy, Biomedical Science Morehouse School of Medicine
13+ Years Tutoring

Biomedical science PhD work at Morehouse School of Medicine means Eugene has cycled back through gen chem concepts like reaction kinetics, acid-base chemistry, and thermodynamics at a graduate level — applying them in physiology and pharmacology contexts where getting the fundamentals wrong has real consequences. His English BA from Emory also gives him an unusual skill for this subject: he can translate dense, jargon-heavy textbook explanations into language that actually makes sense on a first read.

Adel
BA Georgia Institute of Technology-Main Campus
13+ Years Tutoring

Biochemistry at Georgia Tech meant Adel didn't just pass gen chem — he depended on it daily as the foundation for everything from enzyme kinetics to metabolic pathways, so concepts like electron configuration, bonding theory, and solution chemistry stuck because they had to. That biochemistry lens gives him a particular knack for explaining why a reaction behaves the way it does at the molecular level, which tends to be the missing piece for students who can follow the math but can't connect it back to what's actually happening in the flask. Rated 5.0 by students.

Taylor
BA University
8+ Years Tutoring

General chemistry at the college level moves fast — one week it's thermodynamics, the next it's molecular orbital theory, and falling behind on any unit makes the next one harder. As a teaching assistant at the University of Tennessee, Taylor runs lab sections and tutors students through everything from acid-base equilibria to electrochemistry. That day-to-day classroom experience means he already knows which practice problems and conceptual shortcuts actually move the needle on exam scores.

Beverly
BA Baylor University
13+ Years Tutoring

Two chemistry degrees and a state teaching certification mean Beverly has taught gen chem concepts like electron configurations, stoichiometry, and solution chemistry enough times to know exactly where students start losing the thread — and she's deliberate about letting them work through the reasoning themselves rather than handing over answers. She also teaches organic chemistry, so she can flag when a gen chem topic like molecular geometry or functional groups is worth mastering now because it's about to matter a lot more.

Matthew
BA Williams College
14+ Years Tutoring

Double-majoring in Chemistry and Political Science at Williams College means Matthew completed the full gen chem sequence alongside upper-level coursework — so topics like electron configurations, chemical bonding, and reaction stoichiometry aren't distant memories but material he's revisited from multiple angles. He digs into the conceptual reasoning behind each problem before touching the calculator, which keeps students from memorizing procedures that fall apart on exam questions with unfamiliar setups. Rated 5.0 by students.

Robert
BA University of West Georgia
15+ Years Tutoring

Not many political science majors end up teaching college chemistry, but Robert's 32 ACT and his breadth across both science and humanities subjects mean he's someone who learned gen chem by grinding through it methodically — and remembers exactly which concepts, like electron configurations, mole conversions, and gas laws, required that extra effort to click. That perspective makes him especially effective with students who don't consider themselves natural science learners and need someone who can slow down and rebuild the logic step by step.

Daniel
BA Kennesaw State University
14+ Years Tutoring

Having taken both general and physical chemistry as part of his biology degree, Daniel knows the exact moments in college chemistry where the material shifts from memorizable to conceptual — particularly around thermodynamics, equilibrium, and reaction kinetics. He tackles those transitions by grounding abstract ideas in the biological systems where they play out, making topics like Gibbs free energy or Le Chatelier's principle feel less like pure math and more like descriptions of what molecules actually do.
