Mastering chemistry: Foundations of General Chemistry

My chemistry classes are engaging, structured, and tailored to the student’s needs, ensuring a solid understanding of fundamental concepts while fostering curiosity and problem-solving skills.

Each lesson begins with a brief review of previous topics to reinforce knowledge and build connections. In general chemistry, key topics include atomic structure, periodic trends, chemical bonding, stoichiometry, thermodynamics, and reaction kinetics. Concepts are explained using real-world examples, visual aids, and interactive discussions to enhance comprehension. For calculations, I guide students step by step, emphasizing problem-solving strategies and common pitfalls.

To track progress, I provide tailored exercises and encourage students to explain concepts in their own words. Regular assessments and constructive feedback help refine their understanding and problem-solving skills. My goal is to create a supportive and stimulating learning environment where students gain confidence and a deep appreciation for chemistry.

About Me

I am a dedicated and passionate tutor from South Africa with a strong appreciation for nature, art, and science. Committed to fostering creativity and critical thinking, I strive to empower my students to achieve their individual goals through personalized guidance and support.
For basic organic chemistry, lessons introduce the structure, nomenclature, and properties of hydrocarbons, functional groups, and reaction mechanisms. I use molecular models and digital tools to help students visualize molecular structures and reaction pathways. Reaction mechanisms are broken down systematically, focusing on electron movement and key principles such as nucleophilicity and electrophilicity. Hands-on activities, including virtual or simple at-home experiments, help reinforce theoretical knowledge. I also incorporate practice questions and discussions on how chemistry applies to everyday life, making the subject more relatable and engaging.
In this engaging and interactive class, you will explore the fundamental principles of A-Level Biology through a dynamic blend of visual aids, interactive questions, and personalized feedback. Designed to support your individual learning goals, this course will help you develop a deep understanding of key biological concepts while enhancing your problem-solving and analytical skills. Whether you’re preparing for exams or looking to strengthen your scientific knowledge, this class provides the guidance and tools you need to succeed.
