PhD chemist helping high school and college students learn how chemistry actually works — not just memorize it.

Aidan was my lab teammate in graduate school for 5 years, and I feel very lucky to say I know him pretty well! He’s very easy going and has no problem explaining chemistry concepts at various difficulty levels. Part of his time in graduate school was used to mentor a high schooler on top of his own research and I’ve never even seen him or his mentee stressed out. He’s diverse in his chemistry knowledge as well, since he started a podcast where he talks with leading scientists around the country. He’s very good about making time and following through, while being very welcoming and knowledgeable about what he teaches. Highly recommend as a tutor!

Aidan mentored me during an organometallic research project last year. He's excellent at explaining concepts, whether by offering advice, drawing mechanisms, or breaking down complicated reactions into understandable steps. He's very experienced in the field of organic chemistry and asked me thoughtful questions to help me develop a much stronger understanding of chemistry. Aidan is also highly knowledgeable in lab techniques and explains how procedures work and why each step matters. He's very patient, approachable, and kind. I highly recommend Aidan to other students looking for a great chemistry tutor.
