Hi, I am looking for an experienced tutor for college Organic chemistry class.
I am a university undergraduate student living in America. (US eastern time zone)
The ideal candidate would be a chemistry professor or PhD student.
I have ADHD, so I struggle to pay attention when someone is lecturing for 10+ minutes. A tutor who asks guiding questions and makes the experience INTERACTIVE is preferred.
Tutor qualities applicant must meet:
* encouraging & interactive teaching (not a lecture)

* tech savvy & proficient in online teaching (zoom/ skype/ google meets)
Part of your job will be helping me organize my assignments and build study plans. You can also recommend videos / practice problems.
Topics on the syllabus:
* Structure and Bonding
* Hybridization, Acids/Bases, Equilibrium, Polarity
* Acids/Bases, Curved Arrows, Functional Groups, Alkane Properties/Naming
* Newman Projections, Cyclic Alkanes, Radical Intro
* Radical Reactions, Kinetics, Selective Halogenation
* Chirality, Stereochemical Relationships, Configuration
* Alkyl Halides, Substitution/Elimination Introduction
* Nucleophilic Substitution, Alkene Naming
* Alkene Synthesis: Elimination Reactions
* Alkene Reactions, Polymerization, Alkyne Properties
