About Leo
I'm a PhD student with a deep interest in chemistry and how people think, learn, and understand things. I've been tutoring for over a year, with 700 hours of experience, mainly teaching organic chemistry, with some biology tutoring too. I always seek to give students a deep understanding of the topic, and help them build cognitive skills that allow them to succeed.

I've had a great experience being tutored by Leo. My scores across different domains in scientific subjects such as: organic chemistry, microbiology, genetics, biochemistry, and general chemistry 1 and 2 saw my scores increase over 35% on average.
I can't recommend Leo enough for his ability to explain hard concepts and frame it in a way that leads to understanding and mastery for his students.I've met Leo when I started my PhD in chemistry. Myself having limited background in organic chemistry, he's been a great help in troubleshooting issues I've encountered so far. He's great at pointing out what knowledge/connections I'm missing in order to fully understand and solve a chemistry-related problem. He's friendly, non-judgmental and patient so I've always felt comfortable asking all the questions I had, even if they felt silly to ask. Would highly recommend!
Leo has been my colleague and lab mate for the past three years during my PhD. He was my senior in the lab and was always kind and helpful whenever I asked for assistance. As an international student, I was unfamiliar with many things, especially during my initial days, and he was very supportive and non-judgmental. His knowledge of chemistry is unquestionably deep, and throughout his PhD, he solved many issues with his expertise, presence of mind, and calm attitude. Being around and learning from him has always been enjoyable, and I am confident that he will be an excellent tutor for prospective students.
