I have taught General and Organic Chemistry for close to twenty years as I am an Associate Professor at the University level. Chemistry is a difficult subject. I believe my job is to take the concepts that are discussed in textbooks and make them as understandable as possible to students. The next step is to use these concepts and be able to problem solve. If you can solve problems from the textbook from memory, you are well on your way to success. Finally, I will readily admit I don't know e... Read more
Alison
Alison B. Nesconset, NY
Junior year of high school can be a tough time for both the student and parent. Academics, sports, clubs, social lives and new jobs....and then add in all the time needed to begin thinking about college! College prep tests (ACT, SAT) can seem so different than the tests taken in school. These tests, and the time needed to prepare for them, can seem overwhelming at times. That's where I come in! I have over 10 years in assisting, encouraging, and teaching students the techniques needed ... Read more
