About

I am Professor Cain. I teach General Chemistry at a local University, as well as teach AP Chemistry in a high school. I really enjoy helping people to understand difficult concepts and I care about the growth of my clients.

I teach General Chemistry at Concordia University, as well as AP Chemistry at Westminster High School. I have been teaching Chemistry now for over 25 years.

My rate is $50 per hour online, $80 in person, or $65 if we meet halfway somewhere.

Typically, clients say that the material we accomplish in one hour, would have taken them the whole weekend to do alone.

He was able to accurately catch what I was missing and helped me strengthen my weak areas. In 2 months I learned a whole years worth of chemistry and intro to O-Chem. Highly reccomend.

My daughter felt like Mr. Cain completely understood where she was struggling and was able to help her with the difficult concepts. He was nice, and attentive, and she felt confident going into her next AP Biology test!

Mathew has a wealth of knowledge and I plan to continue working with him as soon as I get my new job. I will require his guidance for the next 5-6 months but need to get a job first.
