Career Experience

I taught high school and college chemistry for 18 years including teaching physical science courses with laboratories and field trips, at an eastern university and teaching general and organic chemistry, lectures and laboratories, for four years at another eastern university. While there I had the opportunity to become the lead author of the study guide accompanying the college freshman textbook of a major publisher. I have been tutoring high school and college chemistry students on-line and in person for the past fourteen years.

I Love Tutoring Because

Chemistry has fascinated me from the first day I walked into my high school chemistry classroom. I also enjoy working with students to answer their questions and help them master the subject.
