Success Starts with a
Strong Foundation

Expert tutoring for students pursuing the sciences and premed studies

Only a few spots remain for this semester’s personalized tutoring program.

Why Tutoring?

Even the most capable students can find chemistry challenging; especially when long study hours don’t translate into top scores. Personalized tutoring bridges that gap, turning uncertainty into confidence and strong results.

At Chem Help ASAP, I work with students the way top educators do, with precision, insight, and guided practice that builds real mastery. Every session is interactive and personalized, helping students solve complex problems with confidence, and excel in the demanding path toward premed success.

Expert Instructor

Most tutoring centers use under-qualified tutors who have yet to finish their degree and are inexperienced as a teacher in a classroom. Without the right expertise, students miss more than answers; they miss the foundation for lasting success in chemistry and future coursework.

Karin has earned her Masters in Chemistry from UC Berkeley. She has spent over a decade teaching college chemistry and over 20 years tutoring individual students. Her knowledge and experience helps students master complex chemistry concepts with clarity and confidence, building a foundation for long-term academic and premed success.

However, Karin is highly selective in the students she works with, ensuring personalized attention and the highest level of guidance.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What chemistry classes do you cover?

I work with high school and college students in chemistry, including honors chemistry, AP Chemistry, and college general, and analytical chemistry.

Is all tutoring one on one?

I also offer group tutoring for those students more comfortable tutoring with their peers.

How does group tutoring work?

Groups can be structured in several ways, but the most common is for students to work with other students in their class. If you would like to explore group options, please register for a consultation.

Do I need to be struggling to benefit from tutoring?

Not at all! Tutoring is most effective when started early. Many students come to strengthen their foundation, get ahead, or boost confidence before exams.

How are sessions conducted?

All sessions are live over Zoom. A tablet or device with a stylus is recommended for the best interactive experience.

How long are sessions?

Standard sessions are 1 hour, but longer sessions, especially for exam prep, can be arranged.

How are sessions structured?

I explain concepts, work through examples, and then guide students as they solve problems on their own. Sessions are interactive, with plenty of time for questions.

How quickly will I see improvement?

Many students notice progress within a few sessions, but consistency matters most. Tutoring builds both knowledge and confidence over time.

Will you give me the answers to my homework?

I won’t just give you answers, I will guide you step by step so you understand the concepts and can solve similar problems independently.

Do you offer exam prep?

Yes! I help students prepare for AP exams, midterms, finals, and placement tests with both content review and test-taking strategies.

What does tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on individual or group tutoring as well as the level of the class you are taking. Please reach out for current rates.

How do I pay?

Payments can be made via Venmo, Zelle, or PayPal.
