Hello, my name is Gaby! I am a recent graduate from the University of California, Riverside (UCR) where I received my Master’s in Education and my Chemistry Teaching Credential.

My background: In 2018, I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and graduated in the top 4% of my class. I have 4+ years’ experience tutoring in the subjects of Biology, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Neuroscience. I have tutored 100+ students in these subject areas, both online and in person. I decided to become an educator to inspire students to develop a passion for science and learning.

My purpose: To help you succeed by providing you with the tips and tricks I’ve accumulated over the years to master Organic Chemistry. I’m motivated by seeing students improve their understanding and build up their confidence the more we work together. I believe that you are more than capable of succeeding and my job is to break down the material in a way that makes sense to you. My greatest accomplishment as a tutor has been working with students who were at risk of failing turn their grades around and finish the course at the top of their class.

My approach: Every professor takes a different approach to teaching Organic Chemistry, so I adapt my teaching method based on your needs and learning style. Generally, I like to start with the basics and build your proficiency to the level of the course (and beyond). For each chapter of the course, I like to provide reaction study guides, a variety of practice problems, and practice exams to provide you with as much support as possible.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a session. I look forward to working together!

First Lesson Thoughts

As far as first lessons go, I thought this was a pretty good one. We reviewed some Orgo mechanisms and spent the bulk of our time discussing p orbital overlap. I found this lesson to be helpful and look forward to understanding Orgo 2!

awesome!!!

She was amazing. Very understanding and patient! Went back to general chemistry to help me understand organic. Sent me the textbook and practice problems. AWESOME!

Gaby is the best!

Gaby is genuinely a better teacher than the instructors at my university -- I would truly be failing without her and am so grateful for her incredible and patient instruction!!!

PATIENT AND ENCOURAGING

Gabriela distigmatizes chemistry by providing the tools and explanations tailored to you. These methods really boosted my confidence on this topic and I’m no longer scared to approach difficult questions. I’m so blessed to have her as my tutor!

Amazing tutor!!

I've been working with Gabriela the past two weeks to grow my Organic Chemistry knowledge and she's been an incredible help! She's very knowledgable and cares about you as a student.

Amazing and Knowledgable Tutor !

Gabriela helped me to pass an organic chemistry class I feared I would not pass! She broke down the concepts in a way that allowed me to understand the material and be able to apply the material in any setting. I met with her only a few times and understood the material right away thanks to her teaching style . Absolutely amazing tutor !

The Absolute Best!

I have had frequent lessons with Gabriela since I started Ochem A and continued working with her through Ochem B. I never really understood science classes in the way I was supposed to and it was always a struggle for me to apply my knowledge and understand the basis of why I am doing what I am doing. Gabriela helped me do that. I cannot thank her enough. I went into Ochem with so much fear and no knowledge of organic chemistry, and I've come out of Ochem B with an even better score than I was expecting and so much knowledge and appreciation for the course. It's now my favorite science course I have ever taken thanks to her!! She doesn't just help you solve problems, she teaches you the foundation of what all the terms and structures mean. She makes sure you know what you are doing before you do it, and helps you along the way by being really patient, understanding, and so kind. I cannot recommend her enough.

excellent and patient tutor!

Gabriela is just amazing as an organic chemistry tutor! This semester I had to retake it since I dropped it the first time and I was anxious that whether I would be miserable getting below 50% on the exams. But thanks to her effective teaching on the materials, I am beyond surviving in organic chemistry 1. Without her, I wouldn’t be able to pass the exams. Organic chemistry is an evil course but she definitely makes it better and bearable. Thank you so much for everything! And yes I 100% recommend taking her for orgo 1!
