    Inorganic and Transition Metal Chemistry - University Level

    This class is designed as a question and answer tutoring session with one-on-one help from a highly qualified and experienced university level chemistry lecturer who specialises in transition metal chemistry.

    Topics that can be discussed include (but are not limited to):
    - Electron counting
    - Coordination Chemistry and Crystal Field Theory
    - Molecular Orbital Theory
    - Group Theory (symmetry elements and operations, inc. IR and Raman stretching)
    - Introduction to Organometallic Complexes
    - Structure and bonding
    - Reactivity (Substitution and Insertion reactions)
    - Catalysis

    This class is not intended to replace your ongoing lectures and coursework in inorganic chemistry, but should be used in addition to help strengthen your understanding of core concepts and prepare for midterm and final examinations.

    Extra information

    Ahead of class: Indicate the topics in your class that you are struggling with and if possible provide sample problems from your textbook or class notes (I will prepare additional notes and problems based on what you require)

    About Me

    I am an academic research chemist.
    I have significant experience in teaching, although my usual jive is doing wet chemistry in a laboratory (which I've been doing for the past 15 years). When it comes to chemistry, I'm very enthusiastic and I'm happy to share that enthusiasm with anyone and everyone who wants to learn!

    While lectures and classroom learning are often hands-off and can be boring, I'm determined to make chemistry engaging and memorable. Together we'll work through problems and topics at your pace in a way that helps you learn rather than memorise outcomes.

    I can offer tutoring and remedial lectures in general chemistry, organic, inorganic, organometallic and polymer chemistry at the university level.

    I believe that learning is a two-way street and my students get out as much as they put in from a class. I'm the kind of tutor/professor that expects my students to be ready to learn and I have high expectations that students will be prepared with their own questions.

    Education

    Bachelor of Science, Honours Chemistry (2007) - specialisation in early transition metal complexes
    PhD Organometallic Chemistry (2013) - specialisation in f-block actinide chemistry and catalysis
    Postdoc in Organometallic Chemistry (2013-Present) - specialisation in catalysis and first row transition metal chemistry

    Experience / Qualifications

    I've been a guest lecturer at the University of Ottawa and Simon Fraser University in Canada several times in the past 5 years.
    I have ample experience as a tutor and lecturer in chemistry from my undergraduate and graduate education.
    This class is designed as a question and answer tutoring session with one-on-one help from a highly qualified and experienced university level chemistry lecturer. Topics that can be discussed include (but are not limited to): - Stoichiometry (converting between molecular weight, grams and mols and balancing chemical equations) - Chemical bonding (VESPR theory, electronic structure, atomic and molecular orbitals) - Solutions and mixtures (calculating concentrations and stock solution conversion) - Acids and bases (calculating pH, pKa and pKb) - Thermodynamics (enthalpy, entropy, free energy and diagrams) - Redox chemistry (balancing equations, determining oxidation state change) This class is not intended to replace your ongoing lectures and coursework in general chemistry, but should be used in addition to help strengthen your understanding of core concepts and prepare for midterm and final examinations. NB: I am able to teach to small groups (up to 6) in addition to one-on-one sessions. The cost per session may vary depending on additional students.
    This class is designed as a question and answer tutoring session with one-on-one help from a highly qualified and experienced university level chemistry lecturer. Topics that can be discussed include (but are not limited to): - Functional Groups and Resonance Structures - Stereochemistry (chirality and enantiomers) - Substitution and Elimination Reactions (Sn1, Sn2, E1, E2) - Arrow-pushing Mechanisms - Acid-Base Chemistry - Synthetic Methods (e.g. Gringard reactions, metal catalysed transformations, etc.) - Spectroscopic Methods (IR, Raman, NMR analysis) This class is not intended to replace your ongoing lectures and coursework in general chemistry, but should be used in addition to help strengthen your understanding of core concepts and prepare for midterm and final examinations. NB: Remedial lectures can be provided on a case by case basis if requested. I am able to teach to small groups (up to 6 students) at once, but the price per group may vary.
    Need some extra one-on-one time for learning chemistry? Want a more in depth discussion focused on your needs in the classroom? Missed a few lectures and need to catch up? I am a highly qualified chemistry lecturer at university level and am able to teach remedial lectures and/or can prepare individually tailored lectures to help you through your chemistry journey. NB: The listed price is a starting price and may change depending on the needs and requested topics. I am also able to offer a group session (up to 10 students) for exam/midterm prep.

    Maths and Physics Tutoring and Homework Help for Pre-University Students
    I can provide assistance with difficult areas within mathematics or physics, constructing lesson plans that center around specific topics, or simply go through homework. I can help you study for a test or an exam, or even go outside of the curriculum if there are areas that you're particularly interested in and would like to dive deeper into. I am able to tutor both on location and online.

    French Class at your home with French native for everyone
    Hello, I'm a French student studying for a Master's degree in Political Science at Lund University. I offer French classes for all ages. I have experience in this field, having given lessons in France. For our lessons, I focus on a pedagogy centered on the student's personality, curiosity and expectations. We'll have the opportunity to learn through activities, a single concept per lesson and mobility during the course. We do the course together and have fun! I'm bilingual in English, so I can accompany students in both languages.

    Language class in German or English by former teacher
    Learning a new language is great and challenging at the same time! In my class, we will go through grammar and vocabulary in close relation. Each unit will combine thematic new words, as well as grammar rules, building upon each other. This way you will quickly improve your knowledge of German/English while getting an immersive experience of a new culture!

    Dutch lesson for teenagers & adults adjusted to your needs as a student!
    Firstly, this lesson ensures that you as a student feel at ease! We will first get to know each other a little bit, and then you can tell me what you expect/want in a lesson, or what you specifically need. Step by step, I will ensure you, that you as a student, will learn the Dutch language. You will come to me for different reasons, for example for an integration exam, or because you live temporarily as an expat in the Netherlands and want to learn the language, others enjoy it as a hobby and others come to the Netherlands for love... There are so many reasons! My lessons are tailored to your wishes, you indicate what you want, and I will help you with it, which will make you feel more at ease. From teenage to adult students, from beginner to advanced and in between, I enjoy teaching my classes all over the world! Curious?! Then I hope to see you in my class! Greetings Carolina

    Irma
    Dutch lessons at any level.
    The most important thing for me is that we have fun while learning – that makes everything a lot more fun! In the lessons I am happy to help you with your questions about Dutch grammar and we can work together on your speaking, writing and/or listening skills. Do you have homework that you need help with? That is of course also possible! Let me know what level you are at now and what you would like to learn. I would love to challenge you, but make sure it is always fun and that you don't have too much at once. The prices stated are for a lesson for 1 person.
