Description
In this course, I'll help you get comfortable with all of the major topics in the first semester of Organic Chemistry. All too often, students fear this course or they consider it too difficult for the average person to succeed.
I'm here to tell you that that's simply not true. You don't have to be a genius to succeed in OChem, and you don't have to spend hours upon hours of memorizing random details to make a good grade. You do have to understand the fundamentals, and you do have to be good at applying those fundamentals.
My goal is to help you get to those Eureka moments quicker and more often than your peers through analogy and cutting through all of the unneeded fluff that most students fixate on. If you're having trouble with OChem, if you want a course to help you prepare, or if you just want a different perspective on the topic, I hope that you'll join me! You're going to do great!! :)
Who this course is for:
- OChem I students who need an alternate perspective on OChem presented via metaphor and analogy.
- OChem II students who need a refresher
- Gen Chem students who want to prep for a future OChem Course.

I've been engaged in chemistry for the last 15 years as a student, tutor, and instructor. I love watching people understand chemistry concepts that they previously thought were too difficult or abstract. My primary goal is to help you overcome any anxieties or frustration that you feel towards chemistry. Hopefully, I can help you view Organic Chemistry as an elegant natural puzzle with solutions that are beautiful to see and satisfying to accomplish.
