About

Have you ever wanted to learn chemistry but don't know the basics? Well, this series is for you. We will start from the very foundational skills of chemistry and scaffold our way up to more complex topics. Note: This series is geared to people who have no to very little chemistry knowledge.

View Profile

I am an undergraduate double majoring in Molecular and Cell Biology and Zoology. I am also minoring in Business. I speak 3 languages which are English, German, and Turkish. As a tutor, I am very passionate about helping students reach their full potential in school. 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.
