I’m a PhD computational chemist offering tutoring in chemistry, mathematics, physics, and related quantitative subjects.
I’ve worked with middle school, high school, college, and adult learners for over 7 years, including university teaching, lab instruction, and private tutoring. My focus is helping you actually understand the material well enough to solve new problems, reduce anxiety, and accomplish your goals (not just memorize steps).
