About Ophelia
I am a Chemistry tutor with over 7 years of experience and an MPhil in Chemistry. My teaching focuses on the chemistry of art and cultural heritage preservation. I explore topics such as pigment analysis, material degradation, and conservation treatments. I use historical art pieces, chemical analysis techniques, and case studies to make lessons practical and engaging. Ethical considerations in restoration are central to my approach, helping students understand the responsibilities involved in preserving cultural treasures. I guide learners through the science behind artwork and artifacts, connecting chemistry to history and artistic expression. I work with art history students, conservationists, and anyone interested in the science of protecting human creativity. Lessons are interactive, combining theory, hands-on demonstrations, and discussion of real-world applications. Students gain skills in analytical thinking, problem-solving, and methodical investigation. My goal is to inspire learners to see how chemistry safeguards our shared cultural legacy. Together, we uncover the material secrets of art and develop the knowledge to preserve it thoughtfully. Every session invites curiosity, insight, and appreciation for the chemistry that sustains human creativity.

My teaching approach in Chemistry is gentle, reflective, and focused on the mathematical foundations of the subject. I cover topics such as physical chemistry, quantum mechanics in chemistry, chemical thermodynamics, and statistical mechanics. Lessons are designed to make abstract concepts clear and meaningful.
I also support related areas like molecular spectroscopy, kinetics, and chemical equilibrium to provide a strong foundation. Every session emphasizes understanding the principles behind formulas and equations rather than rote memorization. I guide students to explore complex theories thoughtfully and at their own pace.
Problem-solving, derivations, and conceptual discussions are central to my methodology. I encourage curiosity, careful reasoning, and analytical thinking while connecting ideas to practical applications. Hands-on exercises, examples, and simulations help students visualize and internalize challenging concepts.
I tailor lessons to each learner’s interests and strengths, fostering confidence and creativity. Feedback is consistent, constructive, and aimed at deep comprehension. My goal is to help students discover a new way to explore chemistry at its core, developing both skill and insight. Every session supports mastery, reflection, and a lasting appreciation for the elegance of chemical theory.
