About Karen
Instructional success relies on stripping away the confusion surrounding abstract chemical processes. I teach organic chemistry by establishing a bedrock of fundamental principles rather than relying on rote memorization. My 2 years of experience allow me to anticipate the specific obstacles A-level, IB, and MCAT students face when tackling retrosynthesis or carbonyl chemistry.
We will work through NMR spectroscopy and radical reactions using logical, step-by-step deconstruction. This approach ensures that you understand the electron movement in SN1 and SN2 reactions at a mechanical level.
I address alcohols, ethers, isomerism, and elimination reactions with a focus on why these pathways exist. By mimicking the testing environment, I train you to recognize patterns that appear repeatedly on formal examinations. Each concept serves as a building block for the next, creating a coherent narrative of molecular reactivity. Consistent practice under my guidance will bridge the gap between your current knowledge and your target score.

Currently completing my 4th year as a Doctor of Medicine candidate at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, I maintain an academic focus rooted in rigorous scientific inquiry. My academic trajectory centers on the honors track for chemistry majors, which provides a solid foundation for teaching complex mechanisms. Having worked with students for 2 years, I possess a clear understanding of the cognitive demands placed on those pursuing medical school. I specifically emphasize AAMC testing patterns to ensure that your preparation aligns with high-yield requirements.
My instructional style prioritizes clarity, structured logical steps, and the building of true chemical fluency. I have helped numerous pre-med students navigate the transition from basic concepts to advanced synthesis.
These sessions turn intimidating structures into manageable frameworks for successful exam performance. By identifying common pitfalls, I help you avoid errors that frequently trap students during high-stakes assessments. Your success on the upcoming exam remains my primary objective.
