Organic Chemistry prep, tutoring, and learn the fundamentals to succeed

From 75.24 £ /h

Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds. Most organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen, but they may also include any number of other elements (e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, halogens, phosphorus, silicon, sulfur).

Most students struggle not because they don’t know the reactions, but because the fundamentals are not second nature. Working together we can fill in these gaps so that the student is able to approach the problem.

About Me

I am an engaging instructor who has the student at heart.

When we work together it is my job to determine where the struggle is happening. The path we take to overcome the pain point may seem round about, but the goal is always to make sure the fundamentals are ingrained so that you can solve future problems.

I will use your work to help you understand how to think logically when approaching Organic.

Lastly, I really enjoy working with students to help them reach their goals.

Graduated and Experienced for more than 18 years, I give private lessons in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Chemistry - Biology, Geology to students of French program of Terminales, patent and secondary or international program IB in English (Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, 12) or entrance exams and medical university preparatory classes or 1st and 2nd university years for the academic year 2022/2023 either at home or by internet online by a very modern and professional method much better than webcam and better than on site.
The online method is easily done by a link that serves as a writing board, typing and projection more than Skype or Zoom talking about which we communicate. This method is very modernized and reliable (it's like we are in the same place) for more than 6 years I have been working by this method.
The results of my students and in particular the students of Terminale are superb with successes in mention very good and good and sometimes excellent.
Homework help for CNED students.

If you're looking for an organised and professional teacher to help you achieve your academic goals, look no further! The IB science subjects can be extremely difficult to go through on your own, and I'll be glad to use my experience to help you out.

A couple of things I like to do:

- Initial test or interview to assess your level.
- Use Notion as a platform to share all my resources.
- Use mock papers that lay out the exercises JUST like in the real exams, so you will feel really prepared.
- I give homework when appropriate.
- I provide any kind of mentoring and college counseling. People who study Biology and Chemistry usually want to pursue a clinical career-- and that is a complex process!
