About

Each lesson we will be building our knowledge in the field of organic chemistry. We will start with the basics covered in general chemistry classes so we all have the correct foundations. Then we will move into organic concepts and what the field of organic chemistry includes. This series is perfect for a learner who is just starting their organic journey. *Note, in this series we will no cover and intermediate or advanced concept.*

View Profile

I am a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin- Madison, where I studied Molecular and Cell Biology and Scientific Communication. I currently work at an international biotechnology company working in their small molecule department as a scientist developing new medicines. I have a love of learning which has led me to be able to speak 3 languages which are English, German, and Turkish, and I am currently learning more. In addition to my academic studied, I also play numerous instruments. As a tutor, I am very passionate about helping students reach their full potential in all levels of school. I love school and want to help others gain the passion for learning and enjoy not only the outcome, but also the process. I tutor biology, chemistry, writing, German, Turkish, and a variety of AP classes to help students prep for their exams. In my free time, I enjoy crocheting, playing D&D, and watching movies/TV shows.
