About Jaxon

Not everyone learns the same way. Some learn effectively through books and hours of study. Others learn better by observing an experienced individual teach concepts. Some learn by actually putting concepts to the test for themselves.

With over 4 years of experience in tutoring chemistry at the university level, I have become proficient at adapting to various learning styles of students from all backgrounds and guiding them to a deeper understanding of chemical concepts.

I am currently in my second year of a Chemistry Ph. D. at Penn State. My research area is synthetic organic chemistry. During my time here at PSU I've had the opportunity to deepen my understanding of chemistry in the lab as a research assistant and in the classroom while serving as a TA for organic and general chemistry labs.

First off, I LOVE chemistry! There is chemistry in every aspect of our lives and everything comes down to atoms. Being able to study and gain more understanding of how our world works gives me great joy!

I've always thought that one of the foremost characteristics of a good teacher is an excitement for learning. I enjoy helping others to learn as much as I enjoy learning for myself!

I started teaching chemistry in 2017. The Tutoring Center at my university had just hired a new director. I had filled out an application online but with the turnover, many applications were lost. I went to the Tutoring Center in person and introduced myself to the director and stated my interest in tutoring. She interviewed me and hired me on the spot!



I have a B.S. in Chemistry from Southern Utah University. While pursuing my undergrad degree, I was able to work as a chemistry tutor for 3 years helping students of all levels to make the connections needed to be successful in chemistry classes and labs.

In my last year I was promoted to Tutor Mentor, which gave me the opportunity to assist other tutors in learning how to simplify difficult concepts for their students and to be a more effective tutor.

I was also the president of the Chemistry Club at the university, in this capacity I organized and carried out many community outreach activities such as science demonstrations for local elementary and middle school students. This taught me how to explain complicated subjects at a very simple level.

Starting Fall 2020 I will be pursuing a Ph.D. From Penn State in Organic Chemistry.

I believe that students learn most effectively in an environment in which they are comfortable. For this reason, I always start working with a new student by introducing a little bit about myself and getting to know them a bit too. This includes having them articulate their reasons for interest in chemistry tutoring and what styles of learning they believe are complementary to them.



I have worked with students of many different levels of tutoring needs. Some students seek me out after they have completed their homework and just wish to solidify concepts in their heads by discussing it with me. 

I work with a lot of students who have given their best effort to solve their problems but need clarification.

I also work with a number of students who find themselves without much of an idea where to begin. 



Obviously, when hiring a tutor you want to find someone who knows their stuff. But I think it's equally important to find someone who fits with your personality and helps you to gain confidence in your abilities as a learner!



My daughter, who is now almost 13 months old recently started to walk about 2 months ago. I was fortunate enough to capture the moment on film too with my wife present!



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
I think students should ask themselves what they have done to facilitate their own individual learning before going to their teacher.
