Experienced Organic Chemistry Tutor
Chemistry is an overwhelming and frustrating subject for many students. I specialize in breaking down concepts and explaining them in an understandable way. Recognizing that everyone does not learn a subject in the same manner, I constantly adapt my teaching style to meet the individual needs of my students. My role as a tutor is to help my students gain the self-confidence they need to learn the material and attain their educational goals. I have several years of tutoring experience in Organic Chemistry. My students have ranged from science majors to business majors. Many have plans to attend medical or veterinary school. Quite a number have been in nursing or health science programs. As a graduate student, I was a teaching assistant for General Chemistry, undergraduate Organic Chemistry lab, and advanced Organic Chemistry lab. During my years of undergraduate and graduate research, as well as my time spent as a postdoctoral researcher and research scientist, I supervised undergraduates starting their own research careers. I want to be a beneficial resource for my students, and I welcome any materials or suggestions they may have. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule an appointment. I will always give a prompt reply to any inquiry.

Sarah I.
University of Nigeria nsukka
Friendly and Tefl certified teacher. Experienced in teaching kids and adults.
Hi Friends, I am happy you are here. My name is Sarah. I am a British Strategic communication expert, with over 4years of teaching experience to kids and adults from different cultures and backgrounds. Now, do you want to speak fluently? you should definitely write to me. I have worked with students every day for the past 4years, and most of my students initially felt that reaching fluency or their goals was impossible. When they come to me, they thought they were doing everything they could, but fluency seemed beyond reach. My approach is built around practising correct speech patterns in a progressive fashion so that when you’re ready to have those conversations in English, those patterns will naturally express themselves since you have used them so many times before. This is a simple, progressive, systematic and accurate method. I am your go-to for 📋Business English 📚IELTS preparation 🌟General English 🌸English for beginners and children🌍English for travelling and much more. I ensure, I assist students of all ages and levels to improve their Reading📖, listening👂🏼, writing📝 and speaking skills 🥇 I enjoy reading, meeting new people, and travelling to new places. I look forward to our lessons together.

Douglas H.
Mississippi State University, USA
Conversational English and Vocabulary Enhancement
Hi, I am Tutor Douglas. My English-teaching career started during early childhood. Since my father was in the Air Force, every few years we moved from one Air Force base to another; consequently, my childhood friends from many different countries were interested in learning the English language. It became incumbent upon me to teach it to them. My exposure, at a young age, to many languages and language teaching incepted a lifelong English educational journey for me. It began with the acquisition of a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications-Journalism at a university in the U.S. I then hosted a nationwide radio show in the U.S. for two years where I received intense coaching toward the refinement of my accent and pronunciation. For nine years, I owned and managed a call center that serviced U.S. law firms. My daily correspondence with the attorneys was instrumental in my personal development of an advanced business vocabulary. For four of the nine years, my call center was based in the Philippines where I gained valuable experience teaching American English to Filipino employees. As you can see, my childhood English-teaching experience and subsequent English educational journey have prepared me to be where I am today, working with Tutor Ocean, one of the most prolific language-tutoring companies in the world. I assist Tutor Ocean clients with Conversational English, pronunciation, accent, vocabulary, and grammar.

Devon W.
University of California - Los Angeles, Milton Academy
UCLA student passionate about helping students with writing, Classics, and English!
*** First half-hour session FREE *** Hi! I'm Devon, and I love to learn. I also know how much the process of learning can suck. Sometimes, no matter how hard a student tries, they just can't keep up. The content simply isn't being taught in a way that's compatible with how they learn. That's where I come in! I want to help you learn in the way that's best for *you*. Figuring out how to tailor my approach and reframe topics so that you can best understand them is my favorite part of tutoring! Whether that's coming up with custom practice problems, annotation systems, study guides, or just working things through together, I am here for you. Specifically, I'm here to help you with English (grammar as well as creative and academic essay writing/editing), Latin, ancient Greek, and introductory statistics. (For those interested in statistics, message me for free access to my R cheat sheet!) Now, on to the boring stuff. I'm a member of the UCLA class of 2024 currently pursuing a B.A. in Linguistics and Classical Languages with a minor in Professional Writing and a specialization in computing (GPA 3.973). Before college, I graduated Cum Laude from Milton Academy, #8 on Business Insider's "The 50 most elite boarding schools in America," where I served as a peer tutor for three years, helping students with Latin, English, writing, and math.

Katie C.
Gonzaga University
Biochemist with a Decade of Teaching Experience!
Hi! My name is Katie, I consider myself to be a lifelong collector of knowledge, and find that I learn as much while teaching as my students do! Some of the knowledge I've collected; -Over a decade of childcare experience, including tutoring and mentoring -My B.S. Biochemistry from Gonzaga University -A published article in a Nature subsidiary (Neupane, T., Chambers, L.R., Godfrey, A.J. et al. Microbial rhodoquinone biosynthesis proceeds via an atypical RquA-catalyzed amino transfer from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to ubiquinone. Commun Chem 5, 89 (2022)) -Several ski instructing certifications; Level 1, Child Specialist 1, and Level 2 -2 years of business management experience -Lab management experience at Plug Power, a hydrogen power cell company -A composite year of solo global travel time -Conversational proficiency in Spanish (currently learning French and Japanese as well!) I'm beyond excited to be tutoring again. The ability to challenge your own viewpoints and help others challenge theirs is a big part of my life, and I want to bring that creativity into helping you (and me) learn something new! My teaching style tends to be very fun and creative - I put a lot of import into each student's learning style and making sure material makes sense in the long term, and not just for the next test. Each student is an individual and as a one-on-one tutor I have the delight of getting to make sure learning feels that way!
