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 complexesPhD 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 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.
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.

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!

KS2 - KS3 Mathematics taught by an Expert Graduate from Imperial College London
Do you or your children think why should the Mathematics even be studied? What if I told you, everything around you from AI to economics has hidden Mathematics behind it, even the device your are currently reading this on can only work because of Mathematics. Therefore, it becomes crucial that your child relates to seemingly abstract concepts and understands why it is important to study them.
Given my real-life research experience and an advanced degree in applied mathematics, I can provide just that: real-world applicable examples of different mathematical concepts to keep the students engaged and interested in the subject matter. This practical approach not only enhances comprehension but also fosters a deeper appreciation for the relevance of mathematics in everyday life.
For instance, a simple concept like of percentages can be explained by relating it to expenses and the pocket money. Even seemingly daunting topics like Trigonometry become accessible and exciting when I would explain how they are applied in sustaining not one or two but four different trillion-dollar industries.
I make mathematics relatable, enjoyable, and comprehensible by offering numerous examples that demonstrate its practical significance. Whether your aspirations lie in sports, science, or medicine, mathematics is an indispensable tool, and my aim is to make the learning experience enjoyable and rewarding for every student.

biomedical sciences including general chemistry, biochemistry, organic chemistry and molecular biology.
biomedical sciences incudes various interesting topics like biochemistry imagine how it's interesting to know how exactly our body treat with the different factors in the life for instance the digestion of carbohydrates to generate the energy, how the body get rid of the wastes and learn about the structure of the smallest unit of the body.
I have an experience in teaching as I am a teaching assistant in pharmacy college and i studied many of these topics in the master's degree.
