About Brenda
Visualizing electron movement across a page becomes as clear as watching a video when you see the underlying logic of the mechanism. Students aiming for A-level success or MCAT excellence deserve a structured path through the dense material of carboxylic acids, alcohols, ethers, amines, and radical reactions. We will focus on building fluency by dissecting reaction steps until the movement of electrons feels entirely intuitive.
This methodical approach removes the guesswork from aromatic chemistry and stereochemistry problems. You will stop guessing which pathway to choose and start predicting results based on fundamental principles.
I guide you through these transitions step by step without overcomplicating the terminology. My approach emphasizes logical progression over rote memorization to ensure you remain steady under pressure. You can expect a clear, calm breakdown of any mechanism that currently seems impossible to solve. The transition from frustration to total clarity is a process I am here to facilitate.

Years spent navigating the complex pathways of medicine started when I realized that chemical structures behave just like physical machines. 4 years of tutoring experience at the MD/PhD level has taught me that the biggest hurdle is usually mental friction. My background at the Perelman School of Medicine gives me a unique vantage point on how molecular biology and organic chemistry intersect in clinical practice. I specialize in breaking down difficult topics like IUPAC nomenclature, curved-arrow notation, and SN1 or SN2 mechanisms into manageable logic.
I also focus on stereochemistry, aromatic chemistry, and elimination reactions to ensure you understand the core patterns. Do you find yourself memorizing reactions instead of understanding the underlying electron flow?
