"I have been a full time High School science teacher since 2009 with DESE issued licenses of grade 8-12 Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Currently, I am searching for college and high school teaching positions and industry positions in Chemistry and Physical Science. Tutoring is my most enjoyable activity outside my regular work. While I was teaching high school sciences, I ran after school computer and technology club and other activities related to "food science" and "medicinal chemistry". Prior, I have taught AP and Honor Chemistry, IB Science, CP Chemistry, Physics and CP Biology in districts with diverse student body. Currently I hold initial licenses to teach Biology, Chemistry and Physics (8-12) in Massachusetts. I keep up my learning and continue learning online and taking classes. Having worked with students in urban school district and privileged ones, as well as trained academically for many years, I am confident and excited to help my Wzyant students in many subject areas including, but not limited to, sciences, math and most high school subjects, SAT, SAT2, ACT, and test prep like, GRE, MCAT, ISEE etc ...

I am a native of Hong Kong from where I have earned my B.Sc. (major in Chemistry and minor in Marketing) and M.Phil. degree in Organometallic Chemistry at the Chinese University of Hong Kong before I came to US in the late 80's. I earned my PhD degree from the Physical Science Division of the University of Chicago on 1993, working with highly-strained, cage-shaped, non-natural products, specifically the cubane and cubylcarbinyl systems. I determined the fastest rearrangement rate of any aliphatic hydrocarbon radical at the time. My graduate research there also involved the attempted alternative route for the synthesis of pentaprismane and mechanistic study of an novel ring system. Afterwards, I did postdoctoral research in area of antisense/antigene drug design at University of California Santa Barbara and later at Boston University working on design, synthesis and photonic study of novel designer d" less...
