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.
Informations supplémentaires
Ahead of class (or first meeting): 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)

Présentation
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
Expérience / 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.

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.
