Hey there! 👋 I'm here to make IB Chemistry SL and HL and IB ESS way less intimidating and a lot more interesting! Science might seem tough, but with the right guidance, it can be fun and even exciting. I know what it’s like to struggle with tricky topics, so I break things down in a way that actually makes sense—no confusing jargon, just clear, relatable explanations.

With years of experience teaching the IB curriculum, I know how to break down complex topics into simple explanations that actually stick. My sessions are designed not just to help you understand science but to help you see real results—better grades, stronger confidence, and even some ‘aha!’ moments along the way.

If you’re aiming for top scores or just want to keep up with assignments, I’ll provide targeted practice, exam strategies, and tips to tackle any science challenge. Let’s work together to make Chemistry or ESS (or even Biology) your strengths—I'm here to help you succeed, one session at a time!

If you're ready to boost your skills and make sense of science, let's get started. Together, we can make Science subjects your new favorite subjects!
