I love organic chemistry. It's a useful and fascinating subject. But it wasn't always that way. It was hard to learn and my first real academic challenge and a wake-up call. That I made it through by helping classmates is why I still love it and it is why I continue to tutor it. I decided as an undergraduate to do it for a living and went to graduate school in it!
I bring over 20 years of experience teaching this subject so I assure you are getting one of the most experienced and knowledgeable tutors in this subject anywhere. My students commonly break the curve. I would expect my tutor to give me the tools needed and I will give you exactly that. I keep the language simple and the concepts easy to remember. Also, I assist with Sapling, labs, and write-ups, anything you need for your course.
I act as the guide I wish I had when I took the course and you will get nothing less than time-saving and confidence-building instruction. I focus on the fundamentals in simple clear language. My students consistently outperform the rest of the class at some of the most prestigious universities in the country.
My goal is to save you time and get you independent quickly. We work problems together at your pace and go beyond the typical tutor experience. Odds are you may end up liking the subject after the experience.
I'm happy to be here on Superprof and look forward to working with you.

Great teacher, very friendly. I ended up passing organic chemistry which is a very challenging subject.
David is incredibly skilled and knowledgeable when it comes to teaching organic chemistry. He has an effortless ability to take complicated concepts and turn them into easily digestible ideas that stick. Along with his competence, he is equally personable and truly cares about his students. I would highly recommend David to anyone struggling with organic chemistry or desiring to optimize their study efforts.
TLDR - don’t waste your precious time going solo or with subpar tutors. Schedule with Dave ASAP before his schedule fills up.
I was at an elite school and had stumbled through Orgo I with a B. In Orgo II, I began imploding because my fundamental knowledge was weak. I tried three tutors before finding Dave. He is a scientist and an academic. Before our sessions, Dave would scrutinize my material and then teach accordingly, ensuring high yield and preventing me from making easy mistakes.
I was on the path to dropping, which would have set me back at least a year towards applying to medical school. Instead, Dave rescued me from a W to a B+, and I’m convinced I’d have gotten all A’s had I initially started with him instead of in the final hour.
Dave is super kind and patient; consider yourself lucky to have him in your corner.David is the best! He is super patient and explains things in ways you can actually understand. If he explains it one way and you don’t get it he will explain is another way. He is awesome at what he does!
