Spend 1.5 hours a week with me and learn 20 times faster than you would in school—that's my promise. My student Roy, a Year 10 pupil, reached the top 12 in Round 2 of the UK Chemistry Olympiad (for all high school students) after studying with me for a year and a half.

WHO DO I WORK WITH?
I work with students who are enthusiastic about chemistry and want to learn in in great depth, way beyond school curriculum. The current level isn't important.
I don't work with students who don't enjoy chemistry and just want to have better grades in school.

WHAT IS MY GOAL FOR MY STUDENTS
I want them to be really excited by chemistry and think "like a genius" about it. That then translates into them being extremely good in chemistry competitions and having great chances for getting into prestigious universities. Furthermore, it will help them approach any complex problems they might encounter at school, work, or in life.

MY STUDENTS ...
1. love the sessions. Attending them and doing homework is fun they look forward to. It is not “just another work you they need to do”.
2. learn super fast. They are confident with topics that 2 months ago seemed like “impossibly difficult". 
3. learn how to think like a "genius" the way they think. I teach them the right questions to ask, how to approach complex problems and how to look for connections between seemingly different things.

MY ATTITUDE
- My student's time is the most precious thing to me. That is why I put hours of preparation into the lessons, creating quizzes, illustrations, analogies etc. specifically crafted for each student so that they can learn as fast as possible. I just love this process of figuring out how to condense my knowledge so that they can learn 20x faster than I did.
- I want to stretch students. I believe that fun problems are hard problems and that struggling and making mistakes is the fastest way to learn.
- I am here at the student's service. If they don't like homework that I am setting or anything else, I take it very seriously and make changes accordingly.
- Well-being is important for me. Being stressed/ overwhelmed is a valid reason for my students to cancel the session.
- If the student doesn't love a session, it was free.

HOW DO WE START?
- First, I conduct a 30-minute interview with the student and parents to understand how I can be helpful and if we are a good match. As I dedicate a lot of time to each student I work with only a few students at a time and I am very selective about who I work with.
- Second, I offer a 60-minute free session to demonstrate my teaching methods, allowing you to decide if you want to continue with more sessions.
