Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors

Studying chemistry as an undergrad means Amanda is taking p-chem right now — or just finished it — which gives her an unusually clear memory of exactly where the conceptual gaps hit hardest, whether it's the jump from ideal gas derivations to real thermodynamic cycles or the first encounter with quantum mechanical operators. She pairs that fresh perspective with strong calculus chops honed through coursework up to Calc BC and engineering, so she can isolate whether a student's stuck on the chemistry or the math underneath it.

Biochemistry lab work and a dual bachelor's in arts and biochemistry mean Andrew has already applied the thermodynamics, kinetics, and quantum mechanical concepts that make p-chem brutal — calculating free energy changes in enzyme systems, modeling reaction rates at the molecular level. He unpacks the heavy calculus in derivations by keeping one foot in the real chemistry, so a partition function or a phase diagram reads as a description of molecular behavior rather than an exercise in pure math. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am a public school teacher (Chemistry and Living Environment) but can tutor most sciences. I truly believe in differentiated learning and once I know the learning style of a student, I tailor my teaching style for optimum time usage. I love to utilize stories from my real life experiences in labs to help students understand the implications of their science education.

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.

Having studied quantum mechanics and electromagnetism as part of his physics degree, Michael already speaks the mathematical language that makes p-chem so demanding — the wave equations, the statistical distributions, the calculus buried inside every thermodynamic derivation. He teaches from the physics side in, explaining why a Boltzmann distribution or a partition function behaves the way it does before layering on the chemical context that gives it practical meaning.

Nicholas studied biology with enough chemistry and physics depth to encounter the thermodynamic and kinetic frameworks that p-chem builds on — enzyme energetics, gas laws, equilibrium — before they get buried under pages of calculus. His 33 ACT reflects strong quantitative reasoning, and he leans on that cross-disciplinary perspective to clarify why a concept like enthalpy or a phase transition behaves the way it does at the molecular level, not just how to push through the derivation.

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.

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.

As an MD/PhD student at Northwestern with a chemistry PhD focus and a B.S. in Chemical Science from Michigan, Austin has gone deep on the thermodynamics and quantum mechanics that form p-chem's backbone — and he's still actively working through advanced coursework in these areas. He tackles derivations by building chemical intuition first, so when a student hits a wall at, say, a Legendre transform connecting internal energy to Gibbs free energy, the math follows naturally from understanding what each variable physically represents.

Pursuing a dual Ph.D./Pharm.D. at UConn with graduate work in medicinal chemistry means Xhesika encounters the thermodynamic and kinetic formalism of p-chem as daily working tools — calculating drug stability, modeling reaction pathways, predicting how molecular interactions shift with temperature and pressure. She teaches derivations like Maxwell relations and Clausius-Clapeyron by tying each variable back to the pharmacological systems where she actually uses them, so the math carries chemical weight instead of feeling like abstract symbol-pushing.

Two biomedical engineering degrees mean Allyson has been doing the calculus-heavy thermodynamics and kinetics work that p-chem formalizes — modeling energy transfer in biological systems, working through rate equations for physiological processes — since undergrad. She zeroes in on the specific mathematical step where a derivation goes from followable to opaque, whether that's a tricky partial derivative in a Maxwell relation or the statistical reasoning inside a Boltzmann distribution. Rated 4.9 by students.

A bio-organic chemistry degree means Alex spent serious time with thermodynamic cycles, kinetics derivations, and the quantum mechanical underpinnings of molecular behavior — the core of any p-chem course. He approaches the subject by tying each derivation back to the organic and biochemical systems students already recognize, so an intimidating equation like the Arrhenius expression becomes a story about why reactions speed up at the molecular level.

Between biochemistry, organic chemistry, and physical chemistry, Samantha sits at the intersection where biology meets the math-heavy formalism of thermodynamics and kinetics — she understands both the molecular systems and the derivations that describe them. She breaks apart intimidating topics like Gibbs free energy or chemical equilibria by tying each variable back to the biological and chemical processes students already recognize from earlier coursework.
