I have taught chemistry for 15 years and am passionate about it. I have enjoyed teaching children from elementary to university and helping them reach their chemical, biological, and biochemistry goals.
I started teaching chemistry at a local high school 15 years ago. I have since taught at different schools and institutions, including colleges and universities, and given private tuition to students who required extra help. My ability to personalise my teaching methods for each student is one of my best assets. Every student learns differently. Therefore, I tailor my teaching method to their needs. I can help you grasp and remember complicated chemistry, biology, and biochemistry concepts, whether you learn visually, auditorily, or kinesthetically. I have an excellent educational background and teaching experience. Substantial courses in education and instructional methods complement my bachelor's and master's degrees. This scientific and educational background has given me the skills and expertise to give my pupils accurate, up-to-date material and entertaining, practical lesson ideas.
Since then, I've helped many students excel in school.

Fee details

    ﷼150–200/hour (US$41.21–54.95/hour)

    Teachers shape society by educating children and young people. However, the profession faces many hurdles, including varied fees. A teacher's fee depends on numerous elements, which can vary by location and even within it. This essay will explore the elements that affect teacher fees and why it's important to understand them.
    Fee Variation Factors:
    1. Location: Location is a major impact in teacher fees. Teachers in cities charge more than those in rural areas. Teachers must pay for the higher cost of living in urban regions. Urban schools have more resources and facilities, which can attract more students and allow teachers to charge more. However, rural teachers confront restricted resources, smaller student numbers, and lesser remuneration.
    2. Education Level: Teachers' education levels also affect their costs. High-level teachers, such college professors, charge more than elementary school teachers. Because they have advanced degrees and years of experience, higher-level educators earn more.
