About Mavis
Scoring 520 on the MCAT and entering medical school pushed me toward full-time teaching. You likely understand the material conceptually but struggle to apply it under time pressure. My 3 years of experience allow me to break down IUPAC nomenclature, radical reactions, and carboxylic acids with ease.
I guide students through complex aromatic chemistry and carbonyl chemistry while refining mechanism drawing skills for SN1 and SN2 reactions. Mastering IR and mass spectrometry, amines, and isomerism becomes manageable when you learn to think like a med school professor. I have worked with 100 students to bridge the gap between theory and exam performance.

Memorizing reactions is usually the worst way to study organic chemistry. The most effective approach ignores rote memorization in favor of identifying patterns that repeat across every reaction type.
Since I spent 13 years in medical education, I know that speed in chemistry comes from recognizing structural relationships rather than brute force. My 3 years of experience in the field ensures that we move beyond simple identification into high-level application. I provide custom reaction summary sheets that condense the entire curriculum into manageable chunks for your review.
We focus specifically on your ability to synthesize information under the strict conditions found on your actual exam. These sessions prioritize the efficiency required to succeed in a demanding medical environment.
