Award-Winning High School Chemistry Tutors
serving Spokane, WA

Hi, I'm Stephanie! I recently graduated from Stanford University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and a minor in Biology, earning a 3.9 GPA. With three years of research experience and a strong background in chemistry, biology, physics, math, and engineering, I am eager to tutor STEM subjects from middle school through college levels. I look forward to simplifying challenging concepts, fostering a supportive learning environment, and helping students build confidence. I am committed to helping students find excitement in STEM.

Balancing equations, understanding mole ratios, and predicting reaction products all require a kind of structured problem-solving that Helen uses daily in her biomedical engineering studies at Johns Hopkins. She breaks down tricky topics like stoichiometry and periodic trends by linking them to patterns rather than asking students to memorize isolated rules. Rated 4.8 by students.

I am an undergraduate earning my Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Washington. I have already earned my Associate's of Arts with honors through the running start program, and graduated high school as a Valedictorian. I have worked with Disability Resource Services in taking notes for students, and have also offered assistance with homework to other students. As an engineering student, I am able to use my experience to offer assistance with math. I am also able to tutor in chemistry since I have already completed the general chemistry series. I believe that education is extremely important in life, not only for the purpose of knowledge, but also for the determination and ambition that learning teaches us. Understanding concepts not only takes time, but also dedication. As a student who has also attended many tutoring hours, I have come to understand that concepts sometimes require different approaches to finally have that idea click.

Helping students in their education is my passion. I understand how frustrating it is to keep trying on understanding a concept or master a skill without getting a satisfying result. I aim to help students enjoy learning and acquiring knowledge. Always remember that knowledge is power, and nobody can take it from you. I have sufficient tutoring and teaching experience in secondary and post-secondary settings. I worked as a tutor at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. I tutored college students different courses in mathematics, physics, biology, chemistry, and psychology. Also, l worked as a graduate teaching assistant at Marquette University. I taught the laboratory part of general chemistry, analytical chemistry, and organic chemistry. Furthermore, l worked as a science teacher at different secondary schools. I taught science for grades 4,5,6, and 8. Also, l taught chemistry for grade 9. When it comes to my education, l have a bachelor degree in biology healthcare science and chemistry biomolecular science (double major). In addition, l have a master's degree in chemistry. I received my undergraduate education at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh and my graduate education at Marquette University. I tutor for numerous subjects such as algebra, trigonometry, calculus, physics, organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, human anatomy, developmental biology, ecology, and biochemistry. Also, l tutor for the GRE, DAT, TOEFL, and IELTS. My favorite subjects are the math, physics, biology, and chemistry subjects because l, simply, enjoy these fields. My teaching philosophy and tutoring style are based on practicing with various examples. When you are confronted with numerous problems to solve, you become more confident in that subject area. As a result, better performance in quizzes and exams. Outside of academia, learning about other cultures and countries around the world is my interest.

Currently, I am a Research Technician at New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, NM. I have tutored as an undergraduate student, and I have been the lead TA for General Chemistry courses at UC Berkeley. Chemistry is one of my passions, and I would love to share my experience!

Running an immunology lab at Columbia means Matthew uses chemistry daily — from buffer calculations to understanding reaction kinetics in biological systems. For high school students tackling stoichiometry, equilibrium, or electron configurations, he explains the logic behind each concept rather than handing out shortcuts that fall apart on harder problems. Rated 5.0 by students, he makes the quantitative side of chemistry far less intimidating.

Starting chemistry for the first time can feel like learning a new language — moles, electron configurations, Lewis structures — and Eric excels at translating that language into something intuitive. He holds a master's in chemistry and approaches introductory topics with patience and specificity, making sure students understand the 'why' behind each concept before moving to the next one.

When electron configurations and periodic trends start piling up alongside acid-base equilibria and redox reactions, high school chemistry can feel like two different courses crammed into one. Caroline tackles both sides — the conceptual and the computational — using her engineering mindset to show students how dimensional analysis and logical problem setup make even the trickiest stoichiometry problems approachable.

Balancing equations and predicting reaction products can feel like learning a foreign language, but Eric breaks inorganic chemistry concepts down into logical steps that build on each other. His science training across biology and ecology gives him a knack for connecting chemical principles — like bonding and stoichiometry — to real-world processes students can actually picture.

At a preparatory school where she manages and teaches daily, Moriah has spent real time walking students through science material one-on-one — including the kind of systematic problem setup that chemistry demands for topics like stoichiometry and dimensional analysis. Her strength is reading how a student processes information and adjusting the explanation on the spot, which matters in a subject where one shaky concept (like mole ratios) can derail an entire unit. Rated 5.0 by students.

Balancing equations and stoichiometry trip up most high school chemistry students because the logic feels invisible at first. Garrett teaches the mole concept by tying it to tangible quantities — grams on a scale, liters of gas — so the math stops feeling arbitrary. His background in biology and physical chemistry also lets him show students where these reactions actually matter in living systems.

Three science bachelor's degrees — including one specifically in chemistry — mean Sung has spent serious time with everything from electron orbitals to thermochemistry, not just at the introductory level but across multiple disciplinary angles. He digs into the "why" behind concepts like periodic trends and reaction energetics so students can reason through unfamiliar problems on exams instead of relying on memorized shortcuts. Rated 5.0 by students.

Neuroscience at Yale meant David didn't just take chemistry — he needed it to work, especially when tracing how ion channels, neurotransmitters, and cellular signaling depend on concepts like electronegativity, polarity, and equilibrium. That gives him a concrete answer when students ask why any of this matters, and it shapes how he teaches topics like chemical bonding and reaction energetics: rooted in what molecules actually do, not just what shows up on a worksheet.

A chemistry major at Harvard who's heading to Columbia Medical School, James teaches high school chemistry with the kind of depth that makes concepts like stoichiometry and electron configurations click on a conceptual level — not just as formulas to memorize. He connects classroom topics to real-world applications in medicine and materials science, which tends to turn chemistry skeptics into students who actually enjoy the subject.

Chemistry has always been one of Samantha's favorite subjects to teach — she earned her degree in Chemistry & Chemical Biology from Cornell and genuinely enjoys unpacking topics like stoichiometry, molecular geometry, and acid-base equilibria. She's a visual teacher who sketches out Lewis structures, orbital diagrams, and reaction maps so that abstract concepts become something students can actually picture. Her 5.0 rating speaks to how well that approach lands.

Whether it's naming ionic compounds, predicting products of a reaction, or working through gas law calculations, Ravnoor zeroes in on the specific concept causing trouble and drills it with targeted practice problems. His 5.0 rating comes from a hands-on style that keeps sessions focused on doing chemistry, not just reading about it.

Stoichiometry and electron configurations tend to pile up fast in high school chemistry, and students who fall behind on one unit often struggle to catch up in the next. Paula's approach is to anchor each new concept — whether it's Lewis structures or acid-base equilibria — to the periodic table trends that tie the whole course together. She teaches the logic underneath the formulas so students aren't just memorizing steps.
