Best Austin Tutors

Chemistry (particularly organic chemistry) is not like most other subjects; it is quite unfriendly to rote memorization. A detailed understanding of the mechanisms and the various factors that...

Professors are often the worst teachers. While brilliant, most professors teach on a Ph.D. level, not on a layman level. They give you the information in a way that makes sense to them and other experts. Often information is presented in an illogical order, without the shortcuts they used to become awesome in their field, and in a manner so boring that even their mothers would cry. So where does that leave you? Woefully confused, anxious because you?re falling behind, AND cosmically bored. Y... Read more
