Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors
serving Trenton, NJ

I am pursuing a career in dentistry/oral surgery and will be beginning dental school at Boston University this fall. For this reason I recently took the DAT, which I am capable of assisting you with as well. During my undergraduate education, which I completed this past December, I worked in my school's tutoring center, helping my peers succeed in mathematics and science courses. Outside of my academic life, I am a big sports fan and I mostly follow the New York sports teams. For fun, I like to play basketball and golf with my friends. I am looking forward towards getting to know you and helping you with your academic needs.

Enric holds a PhD in Chemistry, which means p-chem wasn't just a course requirement — it was the foundation his entire research career was built on, from quantum mechanical modeling to thermodynamic analysis at the graduate level. He teaches the subject by slowing down at the exact calculus step where a derivation goes from followable to opaque, rebuilding the physical reasoning behind each manipulation before moving forward. Rated 5.0 by students.

Pre-med coursework at Rutgers — graduating summa cum laude with a 4.0 — put Sam through the gauntlet of thermodynamics, kinetics, and quantum chemistry that p-chem demands, all while building the calculus fluency needed to survive dense derivations. He approaches topics like enthalpy, entropy, and rate laws by stripping each equation back to the physical scenario it models, making the leap from math to molecular meaning less painful.

A biology degree builds real familiarity with the chemical systems p-chem quantifies — enzyme kinetics, membrane thermodynamics, molecular energetics — and Hannah leans on that background to give derivations a biological anchor. She's particularly effective at breaking down where the calculus connects to actual molecular behavior in topics like equilibrium thermodynamics and rate laws, so students aren't just pushing symbols through equations.

Decades as a PhD chemical engineer meant Steven was solving Clausius-Clapeyron problems, reaction kinetics models, and energy balance derivations long before they were textbook exercises — they were daily work. He breaks down p-chem's toughest material by explaining a concept one way, re-explaining it from a different angle, then grounding it in a real engineering application where the math actually matters. Rated 4.9 by students.

A PhD in chemical engineering means Alexander spent years deriving and applying the exact thermodynamic frameworks — equations of state, phase equilibria, transport phenomena — that p-chem students encounter stripped of their engineering context. His biosystems engineering background adds a second layer, connecting statistical mechanics and kinetics to real molecular systems rather than leaving them as abstract formalisms. Rated 4.9 by students.

The calculus buried inside p-chem — partial derivatives in Maxwell relations, integrals across thermodynamic cycles, eigenvalue problems in quantum mechanics — is often what trips students up more than the chemistry itself. Christopher teaches both physics and calculus alongside chemistry, which means he can diagnose whether a student is stuck on the math or the physical concept and tackle the actual bottleneck. That cross-subject fluency makes dense topics like partition functions or enthalpy derivations far more approachable.

Thermodynamics, kinetics, and quantum mechanics all converge in physical chemistry — and that's exactly where Monika's biochemistry and molecular biology training intersects. She breaks down intimidating topics like Gibbs free energy calculations and reaction rate laws by tying them to real chemical systems she studied during her PhD research. Rated 4.8 by students.

This is Jacob's home turf. He earned his Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from UC Berkeley and now conducts research at Northwestern, so topics like quantum mechanics, statistical thermodynamics, and spectroscopy are part of his everyday work. He walks students through the math-heavy derivations that make p-chem notoriously difficult, connecting each equation back to the physical picture it describes.

I am currently an adjunct professor of chemistry at a small liberal arts college in the Chicago area. Previously, I worked in the chemical industry for several years as a researcher, but I've found that the most satisfying moments have come when I am able to share my expertise with someone else. Similarly, I very much enjoyed the four semesters in the graduate school when I was a teaching assistant. It gave me the opportunity to work with students and help them develop an understanding for the subject. These are the primary reasons that I have decided to go into teaching.

Differential equations, calculus, and organic chemistry all sit in Nate's regular teaching rotation, which means he's constantly moving between the math and the chemistry that p-chem smashes together — and he knows exactly where students lose the thread between the two. He zeroes in on building intuition around concepts like chemical potential and equilibrium thermodynamics by tying each derivation back to the reaction behavior students already recognize from general and organic chemistry. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am currently a graduate student in Chemical Engineering at the University of Delaware. I am working on using magnetic and flow fields to create advanced materials by directing the self-assembly process of nanoparticles . I have tutored students in Chemistry, Physics and Math all throughout undergraduate and graduate work. I truly enjoy breaking material down into its core components that allows the students to understand complicated information.

A PhD in biophysics and a master's in organic chemistry mean Amin has worked through the quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and thermodynamics of p-chem from both the physical and molecular sides — deriving partition functions in one course, then applying free energy calculations to real chemical systems in the next. That dual perspective lets him teach a topic like the Boltzmann distribution or a phase diagram by moving fluidly between the mathematical formalism and the chemistry it's actually describing.

Maurice's teaching background in special education sharpens his ability to break down the layered abstractions in p-chem — when a student is lost inside a Gibbs free energy derivation, he isolates exactly which conceptual step broke down and rebuilds from there. His coursework across calculus, statistics, and chemistry gives him enough quantitative range to walk through the thermodynamic and kinetic formalisms, even if p-chem isn't his deepest specialty.

A PhD in chemistry means Justin didn't just pass p-chem — he lived in its formalism for years, from quantum mechanical models to statistical thermodynamics, and then kept using it through doctoral research. That depth shows when he teaches: he can trace a concept like chemical potential or a Maxwell relation back to the physical picture driving the math, catching the exact step where a student's understanding breaks down. Rated 5.0 by students.

Biomedical engineering at BU and Tufts meant Anthony lived in the math that makes p-chem intimidating — differential equations, thermodynamic modeling, and the kinetics of biological systems — long before applying it to physical chemistry specifically. His research background studying neurodegenerative disease therapies keeps him fluent in the quantitative reasoning behind concepts like Gibbs free energy, phase equilibria, and reaction rate theory. Rated 4.9 by students, he connects each derivation to the physical system it describes so the notation carries real meaning.
