ACS Organic Chemistry Exam Prep and College Organic Chemistry Tutoring

From 64.99 C$ /h

Organic chemistry can feel overwhelming when reactions, mechanisms, and reagents start blending together. I help students make the subject more organized by breaking problems into clear patterns they can recognize and apply on exams.

In our lessons, we work directly through practice problems, missed questions, study guides, or ACS-style review. Students learn how to identify the reaction family, understand what the reagent is doing, find the key nucleophile and electrophile when relevant, and predict the product more confidently.

For Organic Chemistry 1, lessons may cover substitution and elimination, alkene and alkyne reactions, stereochemistry, resonance, acid-base reactions, spectroscopy, and synthesis. For Organic Chemistry 2, lessons may cover aromatic chemistry, carbonyl reactions, carboxylic acid derivatives, enols and enolates, aldol and Claisen reactions, Michael addition, Robinson annulation, and multistep synthesis.

For exam prep, I help students review missed questions, build a high-yield study plan, practice timed problems, and focus on the topics most likely to improve their score. Students leave with a clearer system for recognizing reaction patterns, avoiding common mistakes, and knowing exactly what to practice next.

Extra information

Please bring your lecture notes, practice problems, review sheet, syllabus, or missed exam questions. For ACS exam prep, bring any topic list or practice materials you have.

The most productive sessions happen when we work directly through problems. If you are preparing for an exam soon, please bring the highest-priority topics so we can focus the session efficiently.

For lab reports, I can help explain mechanisms, spectra, reaction logic, and organization. Please have the lab document, rubric, notebook, and required files open before the lesson. Sessions are focused on chemistry reasoning and a clear completion plan, not last-minute file upload troubleshooting.

About Me

I tutor organic chemistry, general chemistry, DAT science, and related pre-health coursework. My main focus is helping students turn confusing material into organized, exam-ready patterns.

In organic chemistry, I teach students how to classify the reaction first, understand what the reagent is doing, identify the key nucleophile and electrophile when relevant, and predict the product with a clearer system. I work especially well with students preparing for ACS organic chemistry exams, cumulative finals, college exams, and DAT science review.

My lessons are practical and problem-based. We usually work through missed questions, practice problems, study guides, review sheets, or exam-style questions. I focus on helping students understand why an answer is correct, why tempting wrong answers are wrong, and what pattern they should recognize next time.

I work best with students who want structure, clear explanations, and direct feedback. Parents and students can expect organized lessons, a focused plan, and specific next steps after each session.

I also teach classical piano for beginner and intermediate students, with an emphasis on reading music, technique, rhythm, expression, and building a consistent practice routine.

Experience / Qualifications

I have experience tutoring organic chemistry, ACS organic chemistry exam preparation, DAT science, general chemistry, biology, physiology, and pre-health coursework. I earned a 99th percentile score on the Dental Admissions Test.

My tutoring approach is based on structured problem-solving. For organic chemistry, I help students recognize reaction families, understand reagent roles, predict products, repair missed-question patterns, and prepare efficiently for exams. For DAT science, I help students review high-yield content, practice elimination strategy, and focus on the biology, general chemistry, and organic chemistry patterns most likely to affect their score.

I have also worked as an undergraduate teaching assistant at the University of Florida, supporting students in upper-level physiology and movement science coursework. That experience helped me learn to explain difficult material clearly, identify where students get stuck, and adjust my explanations to students’ levels.

I have a strong background in classical piano and have taught piano students while an undergraduate student at UF. My piano lessons focus on classical technique, note reading, rhythm, musicality, and structured practice habits to build a conservatory-level repertoire.

Swiss-Focused Mathematics, Physics & Chemistry Tutoring – Passerelle, BMS, Berufsmaturität, Matura, Fachmaturität, QV & Adult Education

This class is designed for students and adult learners in Switzerland who want serious, structured and exam-focused support in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. The main focus is preparation for Passerelle, BMS, Berufsmaturität, Matura, Fachmaturität and QV/final apprenticeship exams, as well as support for learners in adult education who are returning to study, changing career direction or preparing for a new academic path.

What makes my tutoring different is the strong connection to the Swiss education system. I completed my master’s degree at a University of Applied Sciences in Switzerland and have many years of experience teaching students in Switzerland. This means my lessons are not generic international tutoring. They are built around Swiss school expectations, Swiss exam styles, Swiss curricula and the specific challenges faced by learners in Switzerland.

➜ Special focus on Passerelle preparation
The Passerelle is one of the most demanding Swiss pathways because it requires strong discipline, independent thinking and solid exam technique. I help students prepare systematically in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry by working through the required theory, typical task types, old exams and exam-style practice.

➜ BMS and Berufsmaturität support
For BMS and Berufsmaturität students, I provide structured help in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, depending on the programme and exam requirements. We focus on building strong foundations, closing gaps and applying methods correctly in exam situations.

➜ Matura and Fachmaturität preparation
I support students preparing for Matura and Fachmaturität exams with clear explanations, relevant exercises and a structured learning plan. The lessons help students understand difficult topics, organize their knowledge and gain confidence before important assessments.

➜ QV / final apprenticeship exam preparation
Many vocational students need Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry for their QV/final apprenticeship exams, especially in technical, scientific, laboratory, healthcare or engineering-related fields. I help students connect theory with practical calculations and exam-style tasks.

➜ Adult education and returning learners
I also work with adult learners who are returning to education after a break, preparing for Passerelle, Berufsmaturität, Fachmaturität, QV or further studies. Adult learners often need a clear, respectful and efficient teaching style. I explain from the foundation upward, without judgment, and help rebuild confidence step by step.

➜ Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry taught with equal seriousness
The focus is not only Mathematics. Physics and Chemistry are also important, especially for Passerelle, Matura, Fachmaturität, technical BMS directions, QV exams and later studies. I explain formulas, concepts and calculations clearly so students understand the logic behind the subject.

➜ Old exams and Swiss-style practice
Where suitable, I use old exams, typical Swiss exam questions and realistic practice material. Students learn how questions are asked, how to recognize the correct method, how to structure their solutions and how to avoid common mistakes.

➜ Clear step-by-step method
Every task is approached with a simple structure: What is given? What is required? Which formula, law or method is suitable? Why does it apply? Then we solve the task step by step with all formulas, calculations and explanations.

➜ Why choose a Swiss-focused tutor?
Many tutors may know Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry, but Swiss exams often have their own wording, structure and expectations. Because I studied in Switzerland and have taught Swiss students for years, I can prepare learners in a much more targeted and relevant way.

➜ For serious students who want real progress
This class is ideal for students and adult learners who want to pass an important exam, improve their grades, close knowledge gaps, prepare for further studies or gain more confidence in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.

➜ Success-oriented preparation
My goal is to help students build real understanding, not just short-term memorization. With clear explanations, structured practice, old exam material and consistent preparation, students can develop the confidence and exam technique needed to perform at their best.
