Struggling with chemistry? Here’s how I can help. 

🚀 Learn concepts 3x faster
I will teach you the concepts in simple straight-to-the-point language. There is no fluff. You’ll learn 3x faster compared to working with other tutors and you’ll be shocked at how much you’ll learn in just one session.

💬 Customized explanations to fit your learning style.
I will explain concepts in multiple ways to figure out your learning style, then I gear all my future explanations to fit your specific learning style. This is to ensure that you deeply understand the material and understand the “why” behind the concepts.

🧪 Access to High Yield Chemistry Resources
You’ll get access to the best chemistry resources with the highest yield. These are the resources that I’ve collected working with over one thousand chemistry students since 2011. Every time a student shares an excellent worksheet, study guide, or practice exam, I’ve saved them and added the files to a resource vault. *Student must meet 1x/week to access these resources*

❓Follow-up emails

This is extremely rare, but if there are any questions I can’t instantly answer during our tutoring session, I will send you a follow-up email with a detailed explanation of that question. This guarantees that you’ll get all your confusion clarified.

🧠 Learn how to study smart

I will teach you a study system that allows you to get better grades while studying less. I used the same system to get a 3.93 GPA at UC Berkeley while only studying for 2 hours a day

🎯 Personalized tutoring to attack your struggles
I pinpoint your area of struggle, whether that is comprehension, application, test anxiety, or seeing a problem and having no idea  which concept to use. Then I work with you to fix your specific struggle areas, with ultimate goal of improving your grades.

💡Systematized problem solving mastery

Instead of just focusing on memorize procedures, I will teach you a systematic way to deconstruct chemistry problems so you have a process for figuring out how to solve any problems, even ones you’ve seen before.

✏️ Step-by-step assistance on homework

I will lay out all the steps in an easy-to-follow format so that you can breeze through the homework while understanding it so well that you can explain the material to a friend in need.

🔥 Engaging and dynamic tutoring sessions
My tutoring sessions are highly interactive, designed to fully engage you in the learning process. Students often find themselves deeply immersed, reaching a state of ‘flow’ where they are actively participating and absorbing information effortlessly.

There are other tutors out there. What makes Michael different?

Specialized Chemistry

Tutoring

Unlike other tutors who teach every subject imaginable, I ONLY tutor chemistry. What this means for you is that I can explain concepts in multiple ways until you “get it”. With over 4000 hours of chemistry tutoring under my belt, you can be confident that I will be able to answer any questions you ask. I have helped students with problems ranging from those who were so far behind they didn’t know where to start to those who just couldn’t make the jump for a B to an A. And I can help you reach your goal, whatever they may be.

Guidance Beyond

 Tutoring

I don’t focus solely on comprehension of the class material. Acing the class involves more than just understanding the material. Sure comprehension is important, but if you can’t apply the material, then your grade will suffer. If you can’t deconstruct a problem, and figure out which concept to use, your grade will plummet. If you can’t select the right answer among answers that all sound somewhat correct, your grade will drop. Etc. I help you improve on all these areas so that when the exam comes around, you’ll be ready to rock it. 

Learn How to Study

Smart

I won’t just teach you chemistry. I will also teach you a study system that maximizes your efficiency so you finish your homework faster. Using this system, you’ll be able study less while still get good grades. Personally I used this study system at UC Berkeley and it allowed me to get a 3.93 GPA while only studying for two hours a day. This system is extremely easy to implement and it will help you get higher grades in high school and in college. Most tutors don’t even teach you basic study skills.
