    Principles of Organic Chemistry: Fundamentals and Applications

    You need to learn and get top scores in Organic Chemistry. While most classes have the same general difficulty level, an ‘A’ or two...in Organic will set you apart from all others. More importantly, an ambitious student who wants to be a doctor, nurse, scientist, engineer, pharmacist, dentist, nurse, optometrist, or even a chemist knows how much more impressive a high grade is in this single division of one subject. Without high scores and understanding everything that follows will be more time-consuming or not possible. That means, a blemish on your transcript and worse, paying for it twice and the living expenses plus foregone wages. I have taught Organic chemistry both in the classroom and privately for over 20 years after earning my MSCi and PhD at one of the best departments in the world. I do not teach fluff, read the book to you, or wait. An assessment of your needs takes me about 5-10 minutes. After that, we get to work. I teach the fundamentals in simple language to get you planted firmly and turn concepts into working knowledge. Literally thousands have put their trust in me, gained skills, built confidence, and landed the career of their dreams.

    About David M.

    I have been tutoring organic chemistry since I was in undergraduate. After that, I change my major to chemistry and with my professors full support landed a position at one of the finest universities and then a post doc at Caltech in Pasadena. Since then I have taught hundreds if not thousands of students how to do organic chemistry the right way. I have instructed the laboratory, the recitation, and the lecture and have countless references from surgeons, doctors, chemists, pharmacists, parents and educators alike. If you feel like you are struggling in silent desperation alone, you have found the solution to your problems. What are you waiting for? Ask me something!
