Organic Chemistry is one of my top subjects! I received my BS in chemistry and my MS, Ph.D, and post-doctoral education in organic chemistry. Since 1998, my academic career has allowed me to teach chemistry to a wide variety of audiences, from high school students to assistant professors. During my tutoring sessions, I have noticed that assessing the student’s preference of learning is of upmost importance. This basic inquiry then allows me to tailor the session to their specific needs. Typically, I make use of everyday objects to help facilitate the student’s comprehension of the course material.

I have discovered over my teaching tenure that it is not that students don’t understand organic chemistry, it is that they believe this is the case; many have bought into the myths that circulate about organic chemistry around the academic environments. From my own experience, I have yet to have a tutoring session where the student has not grasped the concepts within the first 5 minutes of a session. It is just a matter of recontextualizing the subject matter in a more friendly and digestible manner so the students can incorporate it into their language and style of learning.
My name is Jason Dinsmore and I am the creator of Organic Chemist On Call (OrganicChemistOnCall.com). I first began teaching chemistry in 1998, and I have been doing so ever since. I decided to create this online and in-person tutoring service in October of 2011 in order to provide students with help in organi ... read more

I have participated in many study groups where I actively contribute information on the topic of interest; there we help each other and teach each other. Also, I'm the oldest sibling of four, I have had many years of helping out with homework and tutoring in reading, writing and math. My education consisted of diverse studies and I learned a great deal of mathematics and sciences. Also, naturally I use proper grammar and have a good hand for writing. I am a very creative person and can come up with unique topics. I'm also very artsy and appreciate a good hands on experiment.

Learning as an Individual, Believing in Your Value

Discovery with emphasis on individual learning style - for instance tactical or visual instead of instructional - also have worked with kids who have emotional issues or self image issues that hold them back from learning - interested in working with kids who are in need of a someone who sees them as an individual
Have worked with elementary age children and have tutored/mentored in the workplace. With many years of work experience with employees of varying skill levels, I understand what it takes to be a valued contributor and understand that students learn in very different ways. Creating a relationship with information that is meaningful to the student is the best way to help them learn a concept or process. Most learning focuses on information assimilation while I focus on applying the concept or process to a real work situation that has meaning to the student.

Organic Chemistry is one of my top subjects!

I solve problems. I am a bioanalytical chemist and biomedical engineer. This profession requires using math, statistics, biology and chemistry at a high level on a daily basis as I develop products that improve healthcare. I have taught or tutored science and math from elementary to post-college level for over 25 years in diverse settings.
Student-led and interactive. No lectures. No drudgery. I focus on the process of solving problems. Restate the question. Draw diagrams. Figure out what information is missing. How can I get that information? Can it be calculated or is an estimate good enough? What sources are reliable?

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's in Applied and Physical Chemistry respectively from an accredited University in Nigeria. My basic and core science backgroung throughout my academic pursuit has enabled me to gain understanding and fit to teach many areas of mathematics and science. Having taught and tutored chemistry and science generally both in Africa (Nigeria) and the United States, I understand the best approach to teach and tutor different students from different cultural background. In addition, my experience as a high school mathematics and physics teacher as far back as 2000/2001, 2 years of instructing and tutoring at a community college coupled with 3 years of lecturing and tutoring in a university makes me fit for teaching in all levels of education, in mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology.
Teaching is my passion. I love to teach, instruct or lecture and ... read more

I love to involve children in learning exciting and useful information. I use many different ways, sometimes just talking and gleaning what is on their minds, then planning learning experiences that address these topics. I strive to reach all of my students as they try to gain useful information.
As an Exstension Safety Specialist, I have had the opportunity to provide youth and adults with needed information to effect a positive change in their lives.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and interacting with people. I gain great satisfaction from being able to help someone else understand something that they are unable to grasp on their own. I believe that students use different ways to learn. Such as visual versus auditory learning. I try to give each student the tools to be successful. I believe in explaining what they learned that day in class. Then, I like to have the student explain it to me. Also, I strongly believe in practice problems. I also employ the internet and interactive programs to help my students. I employ various methods and devise the best strategy with each individual.
I graduated from UNCW with a degree in Chemistry. I graduated with Magna Cum Laude distinction (GPA 3.804). I also, have extensive research experience. I knew that doing independent chemical research would allow me to gain knowledge that can't be taugh ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children and helping them to succeed in all that they do. I try to include all the children in what I am teaching. I tend to teach through example and use hands-on experience for the students to gain the knowledge that they need. My goal in education is to inspire the students to set high yet reachable goals. They need to know that someone will be behind them the entire way.
As a recent graduate from East Carolina University, I have obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Biology. Throughout the extensive coursework, I became an excellent source of information, whether it pertained to science, math, or English. I have written numerous laboratory reports, as well as many papers. I have helped other students in their quest for higher knowledge by giving them advice as well as helping them in what they are having trouble with. I have also helped proctor tests and I was a ... read more

I've taught students in a variety of environments: as a chemistry lab TA, as a youth fencing coach, and as a private tutor. While I believe that the details of quantum mechanics may be difficult for many individuals to fathom, I think that most scientific and mathematical concepts can be easy to grasp with the right instruction. I want all of my students to truly understand what they're doing instead of just memorizing an process for working problems. As a teacher I am personable, patient, and easy-going.
My unique experiences and rigorous education will enable me to make a positive contribution to any students education. I have a BS in Chemistry with a minor in Biological Sciences from NC State University. In addition to my scientific background, I have served as a private tutor for college students, a teaching assistant for chemistry labs, and an assistant coach at a children's f ... read more

Being of Russian origin, my methods of explanation may be a little different from what students are used to here. I relate and connect very easily with students and try to put any subject into practical application and explain why is it important to know. Overall in my tutoring/teaching experience, I had a lot of success with my students of various ages. Even the "hard cases" began to show results in a few sessions.
I graduated with a Business Degree, currently involved in Master's of Teaching Mathematics program. During my college I helped tutor many students with a variety of needs, mainly math and science. This lead me to develop passion for tutoring. I believe any child or student can be helped, it is a matter of process. Tutored and taught: elementary math, science, pre-Algebra, Algebra (all levels), Calculus I, Trigonometry, Geometry, Chemistry, Physics.
