Organic Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Poway, CA

I have a masters in chemistry with a specialization in organic chemistry. I taught college level organic chemistry for two years, and currently work as an organic chemist in academia. I find that the best way to tutor is to use a combination of different methods. For example, I think that pictures/ball and stick structures, reading materials, and having a discussion about the question at hand are all useful and important ways to completely understand Chemistry. I am an extremely patient person, and I believe it is imperative to understand one topic before moving to the next. I like to prepare extra handouts and materials for my students, because I find that presenting material in as many ways as possible is the best way fully grasp the concept. I completed a Masters in Chemistry in 2009, and since then I have worked as an organic chemist in an academic setting. During graduate schoo

My style is simple. I keep things flexible, adaptive, personal when necessary, and prefer to offer real-life applications of the material taught so students can understand the importance of learning the material. I have always had a passion for teaching. My B.A. in Chemistry with minors in Mathematics and Philosophy was granted by La Salle University in Philadelphia. The University of Wisconsin—Madison granted my Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry (1997), and I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of California—Berkeley (2000-2001). I have reached the point where I wish to leave the biopharmaceutical industry and begin a career in teaching.

I work with individuals or groups depending on learning styles. I help students understand the material by using their own strengths. I believe that with the proper guidance and patience, the student will learn. I provide the assistance needed to acquire study skills and memory techniques. I love tutoring for I feel like I am making a difference in the lives of my students, and helping them exceed in life. When they excel in their classes, I feel as if I have made a difference. I have tutored 100 level Biology (lower level) at my University for a year and have independently edited papers and tutored general chemistry. I have a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. With all of the biology classes I have taken, I am comfortable tutoring subjects such as Anatomy and Physiology, General Biology, and Physics. I also have extensive experience with report writing and scientific papers

I prepare for tutoring sessions by asking any prospective students to please send me their study material prior to our sessions (at least a day please!). This helps me evaluate what may be needed to master the material for their class and is just one of the ways that I cater to my students needs and prepare them for success. I am a firm believer in asking questions. Not only do I ask questions, but I also constantly encourage students to ask me questions as well. This helps me better gauge where they are struggling and where I need to assist most in fortifying their understanding. I am a recent graduate from UCSD that majored in Human Biology and Psychology. I have 5 cumulative years of tutoring in a variety of subjects. I consider math my forte (from Algebra to Precalculus and Calculus), but I am more than proficient in other areas of science including biology, chemistry and physics.

I have a BS in biology. I have also taken the MCAT's which display a high level of knowledge of biology, chemistry, physics, math, reading comprehension, verbal expression. I have tutored students in sciences and math from middle school level all the way through college. I love to provide a challenging and inspirational environment with students. I'm very patient, use a variety of approaches to studying, and like to include life analogies and philosophies to engage the students with the material. I have found that the bringing out confidence in students and enabling them with a high level of self sufficiency is the key to their learning success, in class as well as in life.

I finished my lower division coursework at a california community college (AHC) and earned a total of six associate degrees. While at the community college, I administered practice test for students in MESA in mathematics (Calculus 1,2,3, and 4) while also working the maximum of 20 hours a week in the campus math lab (walk-in tutoring). Furthermore, I attended and graduated from UCLA with a bachelor's degree in physics and a minor in mathematics and finished the necessary coursework to apply to all medical school programs in to the country. I tutored for side money while attending UCLA. Currently, I'm a graduate student at SDSU. I'm two courses and a Master's thesis away from receiving my Master's degree in Physics. I prefer to approach every student very slowly in the beginning to understand exactly where their trouble are. Listening is the most important attribute that a tutor can have

I have one year of experience teaching at the junior college level at Victor Valley College. I created and gave lectures on various chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry topics as well as conducted lab sections for students. I wrote tests, quizzes, homework assignments, and some study guides as well. I addressed students needs and concerns via email or one on one time after class. I have a BS in Chemistry from Pacific Union College and an MS in Biochemistry from Loma Linda University. I believe that not only my scholastic background, but also my teaching experience make me a very capable tutor. I am personally, a visual learner. I try to teach or tutor students in this way as well. If you can visualize what is being shown, then it correlates much better with what you read in the subject books. I love teaching and show enthusiasm in math and science when I talk about it. I

I have tutored HS 9-12 and undrgraduate students individually in Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Physics and for SAT/ACT testing since the late 1990's. I received teaching credentials for teaching 9-12 Mathematics in California in 2005. I have worked as a Math/Sciences substitute in the Grossmont Union High School District since that time. I have also worked with A+ Professional Tutoring -- in San Diego County -- and Tutor.com -- online -- for many years, in every level of the Sciences and Mathematics. I love Mathematics and I often wear my heart on sleeve; when it comes to Math, I try to infect the student with that bug. I believe that most students have issues with their immediate teaching and, as a result, feel that math has no meaning to them, hence I teach Mathematics in a contextual manner, showing deep meaning for the drills imposed in the classroom curriculums most experience da

Teaching and working with children has been a passion for me since middle school when I was still a child myself. My advantage of working with children this young is that I understand them better then and now as an adult so I can find an effective teaching style that will help them grow. I've also taught a variety of students from deaf and hard of hearing to ESL students and am able to easily adapt to their needs and hardships. I love children and nothing is as rewarding as watching them grow, learn and gain confidence for their lives in the future. I am an enthusiastic and driven college graduate of two time consuming majors, BS in Chemistry and a BFA in Dance. Along with two majors, I also participated in many extracurricular activities such as working, teaching children, dancing in multiple performances, baby sitting, etc. Due to my different majors, I have broadened my experience

Experience has taught me that students learn best when they are engaged in the material. A good instructor will be able to take concepts that appear to be mundane or seemingly irrelevant and put them in a context where the students can relate to the material. Once engaged, then the students need to actively participate in the problem solving process to truly cement the learning. I have been engaged in teaching for over a decade. I taught organic chemistry tutoring sessions while an undergraduate, and then continued teaching and tutoring while earning my Ph.D. in chemistry. In addition to my experience as a teaching assistant, I was given the opportunity to prepare and deliver lectures to over 400 organic chemistry students at the University of Michigan. As a researcher for a pharmaceutical company, I have continued to teach chemistry and biology to the associates I mentor as well as

I started tutoring when I was a college student. Upon my entrance to the SDSU Department of Chemistry, I was granted an opportunity to teach as a TA in Chemistry. I had been teaching for 4 years before I received my master's degree in December of 2007. In these 4 years, I always had good evaluations from students. As a result of my hard work, the SDSU Residential Education Office decided to hire me as a contracted tutor in the dormitory area in 2007. In addition to teaching and tutoring at school, I also teach as a private math and science tutor. I strongly believe my experiences will help a lot. My style of teaching is professional and fun. I usually make friends with students so that they don’t feel stressed and bored. Too much pressure doesn’t help learning. I think students can learn better in a relaxing environment. In addition, when I am teaching, I usually make examples from daily
