Chemistry Tutoring

I like to know my student's comfort level with the subject matter. So I tend to ask them questions that show how well they know the subject and how much time they have to put into learning new materials. 

I also like to know my new student's interests so I know what analoges will make the most impacts. 

I have a bachelor's degree in chemistry. I graduated summa cum laude in 2018. Since graduation, I have been working as a lab manager for a higher education institution. As a secondary source of income and a passion, I have tutored several high school and college students in chemistry and math. 

I typically charge $35/hour for my tutoring time. I understand that students sometimes need very view pointers, so I provide my contact information to my tutees for quick questions at no cost. 

I started teaching at the age of 11. I realized I enjoyed teaching my younger sibling and helping them with their assignments. I did not professionally start tutoring until 3 years ago. 

I have worked with high schoolers for introductory chemistry.

I have worked with traditional college students on general and introductory chemistry

I have worked with non-traditional students (adults), returning to college for a new degree. 

I have also tutored high school students in algebra and SAT math

I just recently started to use zoom for tutoring due to the pandemic. I am glad that I have finally mastered the use of it to my students and I's benefit. 

I have also gotten a new air fryer that I am in love with . lol. 

I will advise that they find someone that knows the subject well but is also compassionate and relatable, so they do not end up overwhelmed by the teacher's knowledge. I think that is what makes the difference between the classroom and tutoring sessions. 

I like to know my student's interest level in the subject, their reason for taking the class, any study technic that has worked for them in the past, their interests and passion.
