About Isla
My lessons in Chemistry focus on making laboratory techniques clear, practical, and easy to use. I take a relaxed, application-focused approach that helps students understand how real labs operate. Instrumental analysis is a major part of the sessions, giving learners a strong foundation in analytical chemistry. We explore spectroscopy in depth, including NMR, IR, and UV-Vis, to show how each method reveals different molecular details.
Chromatography techniques are explained step by step, with examples from gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, and thin-layer methods. These lessons help students understand how mixtures are separated, identified, and quantified. Quantitative analysis is also covered carefully, teaching learners how to measure concentrations and interpret numerical results with confidence. Each technique is linked to real-world applications so students can see why it matters.
The lessons support anyone who wants to excel in chemical engineering, formulation work, or advanced laboratory tasks. Complex ideas are simplified without losing accuracy, making them easier to apply in practical situations. Students learn how to interpret data, troubleshoot experiments, and understand the reasoning behind method selection. Case-based discussions add depth and help learners think like real analysts.

I am a Chemistry tutor with over 7 years of experience and hold an MSc in Green Chemistry. My work centres on helping students understand polymers through clear and practical teaching. I have guided many learners in mastering polymer characterisation techniques such as GPC, DSC, and XRD. These techniques reveal important information about polymers that goes far beyond basic theory.
I specialise in determining molecular weight, studying thermal properties, and evaluating crystallinity in different polymer systems. I also help students understand how structure relates to properties, which is essential for predicting how materials will behave. My lessons focus on building strong analytical skills while keeping the concepts accessible and engaging.
I have supported students from materials science, chemical engineering, and polymer chemistry, helping them succeed in both coursework and research projects. Many of them have used these skills to excel in labs, internships, and industry roles. I take pride in breaking down complex data into simple, meaningful insights.
