Acid-base calculations giving you trouble? Can't make sense of kinetics?
Chemistry connects to everything: biology, physics, medicine, engineering, and environmental science. If you understand chemistry, doors open.
My job is to make sure chemistry becomes a strength for you, whether you're pursuing a STEM career, heading to medical school, or just trying to pass your required coursework.
