Chemistry and biology lessons for elementary and high school students

From 54.87 C$ /h

I am an experienced university teacher in chemistry, biochemistry and biology. I make chemistry, biochemistry and biology lessons for high school and university students (graduate and post graduate level) tailored on students needs, especially in the fields of inorganic chemistry, nuclear-/radiochemistry, analytical chemistry, basics in physical and organic chemistry, environmental chemistry, soil chemistry, cell chemistry/cell biology, basics in microbiology, human anatomy and physiology.

The specific topics within chemistry can be e.g. Atoms, Molecules, and Ions, Stoichiometry, Chemical Reactions and Solution Stoichiometry, Gases, Thermochemistry, Atomic Structure and Periodicity, Bonding: General Concepts, Covalent Bonding: Orbitals, Liquids and Solids, Properties of Solutions, Chemical Kinetics, Chemical Equilibrium, Acids and Bases, Acid-Base Equilibria, Solubility and Complex Ion Equilibria, Spontaneity, Entropy, and Free Energy, Electrochemistry, Radiochemistry: radiation types, actinides, isotopes etc., Transition Metals and Coordination Chemistry, Organic and Biological Molecules.

The topics for biochemistry tutoring can cover e.g. Eukaryotic cell structure, DNA and RNA structure, Proteins structure and translation, DNA replication, RNA: Transcription, Biotechnology: Recombinant DNA, Gene expression, Enzymes: Kinetics, Biological membranes: Structure, Receptors.

For microbiology tutoring for example following topics can be taught: Types of microorganisms, Staining, Prokaryotic cells, Prokaryotic diversity, Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, Habitats, Microbiomes, Archaea, Isolation of bacteria and fungi, Microbial growth, Environmental microbiology.

Human anatomy and physiology e.g.: Structure of cell, Cell growth and division, Cellular differentiation, Tissues (Epithelial, Connective, Muscle, Nervous), Nervous system (e.g. action potential, receptors, ganglia), Cardiovascular system, Respiratory system, Digestive system and metabolism, Urinary system, Lymphatic and Immune system.

Here's some information about me :)

I have a Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Helsinki (Finland) and I am experienced in teaching high school and university students (both at the Bachelor's and Master's levels as an adjunct professor). In addition to the tutoring, I revise study essays, lab reports etc. as well.

Please, feel free to contact me specifying the topics/fields of chemistry/biology that you are looking tutoring for, and we can discuss the study plan then further.

About Me

I have a Ph.D. and adjunct professorship in chemistry from the biggest and most respected university in Finland; University of Helsinki. Finland is a country known for its high level of education, especially in the fields of science. In addition to my vast knowledge in chemistry and biology, I have high level education in pedagogy and have been teaching several classes both at the high school and university level. In addition, I've tutored students over several years for their studies as well as for their Bachelor's, Master's and Ph.D. level theses. I am an enthusiastic and supportive teacher, and tailor the teaching based on student's needs and previous knowledge. I teach individual students and therefore I can offer them the training and support they need for their studies. I offer long-term teaching and I can also prepare students for specific tests they have in their current studies. I teach either in Prague or online and I have extensive experience in different teaching methods, both online and in class-room or with individual students.
