Program Overview
Comprehensive Chemistry Tutoring
Chemistry bridges the gap between physics and biology, explaining the molecular world that underlies everything around us. My Chemistry tutoring builds strong conceptual foundations while developing the quantitative skills essential for exam success.
Why Study Chemistry with an Engineer?
My background in Mining and Metallurgical Engineering (NTUA) means I’ve applied chemistry in industrial, environmental, and materials science contexts. I bring this practical perspective to tutoring — helping students see chemistry not as abstract formulas to memorize, but as a powerful framework for understanding the material world.
