This is a private or semi-private class for one-on-one Chemistry tutoring. This private tutoring is for students who are currently enrolled in a Chemistry course and need support in understanding the material or preparing for an exam or for students about to take Chemistry that want to get ahead in the course materials before starting. This tutoring can be exam prep focused, such as for AP or IB Chemistry, it could also be focused on reviewing material learned in a class, or it could be to explore upcoming topics to stay ahead. Each tutoring session will be completed adapted to your learner and their learning style. Specific examples of topics that can be taught include: -Atomic Structure -Moles and molar conversions -Balancing equations -Acid/base chemistry -Kinetics/rates of reaction -Oxidation-reduction chemistry (electrochemistry) -Organic chemistry (naming, SN1, SN2, E1, E2, etc.) -Periodic table/periodicity -Thermochemistry -and more Having taught over 500 students, including over 300 virtual students, during the past 11 years, I have learned multiple ways to explain each and every Chemistry topic. Chemistry doesn't have to be hard, someone just needs to take the time to explain it in a way that makes sense to each Learner.

Hello! My name is Alexis and I have been an educator since 2011. My primary interests lie in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) areas, but outside of academics, I am a huge nature lover and runner. Most of my teaching experience is with middle and high school learners in the subjects of Chemistry, Physics, Physical Science, and Biology, but I like working with learners of all levels and have interests outside of these courses that I'd love to share on Outschool.
My Professional Experience: I obtained my BS in Chemistry and MAT in Chemistry Education at Augusta University in Augusta, Georgia. During my time in university, I tutored high school and college students in various Chemistry courses. After graduation, I moved to Costa Rica, where I taught high school science and technology classes for three years at an international school, in addition to serving as the Technology Integration Coach and STEM Coordinator. Since 2020, I have worked virtually with over 350 students from ages 6 to 22 in small group and one-on-one classes.
Since I began teaching, I have worked with a number of students from a wide mix of cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. When teaching heavy content, I try to approach concepts from multiple angles to ensure every student eventually reaches an understanding. I am patient with my students because I know that all students are capable of high achievement with the right style of teaching and that the right style of teaching can be different for every learner. I also like having fun, so I try to spice up my content with interesting stories, funny metaphors, and opportunities for students to ponder and explore on their own.
Outside of teaching and learning, I also love to travel, run, and explore the outdoors. I am a huge coffee drinker and love to eat delicious food. My favorite foods are carrot cake and coleslaw, but I am highly picky when it comes to these two dishes, so I don't eat them often. I also enjoy sharing Costa Rica with visitors from all over the world - especially Costa Rica's beautiful forests and animals.Reviews
