Organic Chemistry Tutoring

Organic chemistry is where many pre-health students hit their first real wall. The fix is rarely more memorization; it is seeing why electrons move where they do. Once that clicks, mechanisms stop being a list and start being predictable.

Topics

• Structure, bonding, resonance and acid-base chemistry

• Stereochemistry and conformations

• Substitution and elimination (SN1, SN2, E1, E2)

• Alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, ethers and epoxides

• Conjugated systems, aromaticity and aromatic substitution

• Aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and their derivatives

• Spectroscopy: IR, NMR and mass spectrometry

• Multi-step synthesis

Planned around your course

Send your syllabus, lecture slides, problem sets or old exams, and each session is built around your professor’s material and your exam dates. After each session you get a recording, a transcript and a written recap.

What students say

“Organic chemistry can be daunting, but Quin made it manageable and enjoyable. Thanks to his guidance, I earned an A in this notoriously difficult class!”
