"I started my career teaching High school chemistry and physics, which I did for four years. I then returned to school to earn my PhD in organic chemistry. After teaching at a few small liberal arts colleges, I joined the faculty at Northwestern University, where I remained until I retired after 22 years. I have won several teaching awards and have served on both national and international committees on chemical education.
As I have taught and tutored over 10,000 students during my career, I have worked with students from every walk of life and with every possible learning style imaginable. When I was in high school, I struggled tremendously with chemistry. After a bad accident, the chemistry tutor who homeschooled me taught me to see chemistry in a completely new and engaging way. From then on, I was hooked, and I've never stopped loving the feeling I get when I discover another one of chemistry’s secrets. I have always judged my success by the successes my students have had with their own coursework. If you are willing to put in the time, I will show you how to develop the skills you need to conquer chemistry, which, it turns out, are skills that will serve you well in a variety of areas of study." less...
