Desmond N.
Senior Secondary School Chemistry Tutor
Home tutor in Alimosho, Lagos
Over 5 years experience in senior secondary school chemistry tutoring with successful students in UTME, post UTME , WAEC and NECO exams
As a very experienced, passionate and successful chemistry tutor for more than five years, all of my students improved tremendously in chemistry over the period of time I was their tutor. This has translated into their excellent results in UTME, post UTME, WAEC and NECO exams.
Every student is unique and thus have different ways of understanding. What worked for a student might not be the best option for another. So, I find the best possible way for each student to understand and have the knowledge of chemistry better.
Chemistry is a very interesting subject. What seems like rocket science can be made very easy by using simple day to day activities in explanation. I use relevant illustrations to dissect chemistry for my students. This helps significantly in their understanding of chemistry.
The desire to inculcate chemistry knowledge and understanding into each of my students and hence make them far better in chemistry than they were before I started tutoring them is the reason I teach chemistry.
Desmond N. also teaches
I am currently a PhD fellow in department of chemical engineering, unilag. I completed my BEng. and MSc. (both in chemical Engineering) in Moscow, Russia, in 2014 and 2016 respectively. I completed the NYSC in university of Benin.
I have many years of tutoring experience in chemistry, maths/further maths, and physics.
I have tutored several students who have successfully gained admission into universities, passed various exams such as scholarship exams, international exams, departmental exams and so on.
My major skill involves adapting to every student's preferred style of learning because everyone is unique and different. I try to make learning fun because once you love what you are doing, you will definitely excel in it.
As a PhD student, i have gathered experience, skills and the intellectual acumen needed to inculcate knowledge into students.
Finally, it gives me joy knowing that I have had impacts on many students' lives from my God's given teaching talent.
