Deanne is amazing!!

Deanne is absolutely wonderful! When I first worked with her for orgo 1, I ended up getting a B- when I was REALLY struggling in the class midway through and probably would have gotten a C. After a restful/recharging summer, where I also reflected on and changed my study habits for the better, I worked with her at the beginning of my next quarter of orgo 2 and ended up getting an A! This lady is an actual genius, and can explain basically every concept. She also knows all of the best textbooks: she can search through almost 20 textbooks and within 5 seconds pull up a certain graphic or chart that explains something so concisely. In a class where it's easy to get overwhelmed by so much information, she really knows how to narrow down the course to the most important components. I don't know where I would have been without her. She is the best orgo tutor out there! Thank you again Deanne for everything!

Thank you Aya, you worked so hard and are an amazing, inquisitive learner. You do well because you are not satisfied with knowing answers but search continually for reasons. Your perseverance and work ethic will help you succeed at whatever you choose to do. Keep in touch!

Amazing!

Helped me with Organic Chemistry topics I struggled with all semester in about 30 minutes. Went into my final exam so much more confident. So kind and explained things perfectly. 10/10 will be back for Ochem 2!

Thank you Bella. Most college professors are not trained teachers - they teach the way they were taught or the way they learn best. In "teacher school" we learn to adjust our methods to fit the student. We need to quickly assess how each student learns and then use the strategies that will help them best. It was a pleasure working with you and I am happy I could help.

Knowledgeable

Deanne helped me with my Orgo Chem homework. She made a special effort to fit me into her busy schedule, which I really appreciated. She suggested that I use flash cards to study, which was a good tip.

Tutor responded:

Flash cards are a little cumbersome in this electronic age, but for organic reactions, the hard copy cards using both sides as I showed you seem to work best. Nice working with you and thank you for the feedback.

Deanne: my organic chem LIFESAVER!

When I found Deanne, I was entering Orgo 1 feeling lost, overwhelmed, and confused. I had heard horror stories about the class and was praying to get out of it with a passing grade. After working with Deanne every week of the semester and utilizing all her tips& tricks, I just ended the class with an A!!!! Never in my wildest dreams did I think that was possible. I could not have done with without her and can’t recommend her more highly!!!

Tracy, I am SO happy for you. You certainly earned your A and I had so much fun helping you along the way. Your future is very bright! Please keep in touch.

Best Tutor!

Deanne really helped me understand Orgo 1, I came into the first lesson with her not knowing as much but once I had my last lesson before my final exam, I knew more than I thought I did. She takes the time to help you and also always encourages you to do well, I will definitely come to her again for more orgo lessons. She is the best and will want you to succeeds and teaches material to you the way you will understand it so it makes more sense to you and can help you on exams and in general! I ended up retaking this class, and now I have an A! Hopefully get to keep my A after this final! She really helped me prepare she is the best and wants you to succeed.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Deanne is excellent teacher. There is no way I could have passed Organic Chemistry without her help. I ended up getting a B in the class and A in the lab. Before having sessions with her I felt like nothing made sense, and I spent hours trying to figure out problems on my own, then after every session I've had with Diane everything always fell into place and made sense. She has shown me different tricks and tables to help me understand and remember certain information. It was extremely helpful to do reviews with her before all of my tests and that really made a huge difference. She also got in as much as she possibly could in the time that we had, so I definitely got my money's worth and there is no time wasted. I am so grateful for her help!

Tutor responded:

Anna, you are a fast learner. We had just 5 lessons together during the last 9 days of your semester. If we had started earlier, I'm convinced you would have earned an A in the course as well. Hearing the material explained in different ways leads to a deeper understanding.

Thanks so much, Serena. I enjoyed working with you!

Clear explanations

We went over stereochemistry and introductory organic chemistry. Deanne is extremely knowledgeable and gave clear explanations and examples. I look forward to working with her again.
