This week’s site is www.AceOrganicChem.com. I was surfing their site and found out that they are the ONLY site on the web that offers live, totally online tutoring and final exam review seminars. It is actually an ingenius idea to get students organic chemistry help. Using a webmeeting software, they tutor you on whatever topics in organic chemistry that you want. Final exam review seminars start at $8/hour, private tutoring is a little more expensive. They also have a Best of the Web Resources page which isn’t too bad.
Professional help for this cheap a price is not easy to come by. I imagine that this would be very helpful for the college student who does not have easy access to a good tutor.
The site is www.AceOrganicChem.com, give it a peek sometime.
Dr. Michael Pa
Dr. Michael Pa got a bachelors degree in chemistry from Binghamton University, a masters degree in organic chemistry from the University of Arizona and a Ph.D. in organic chemistry from the University of Arizona. His research focus was on novel pain killers which were more potent than morphine but designed to have fewer side effects. There may even be a patent or two that came out of it. Prior to all of this, he was a chemist at Procter and Gamble. After all of that, he (briefly) worked as a post-doctoral assistant at Syracuse University, working on novel organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In between, he did NOT compete at the 1996 Olympics, make the Atlanta Braves opening day roster, or become the head coach of the Indiana Pacers, as he had intended. #fail During this entire time, he always loved helping students, especially if they were struggling with organic chemistry. In 2006, Dr. Pa founded AceOrganicChem.com in order to make learning organic chemistry fast and easy. 14 years and about 60,000 students later we are still helping students to learn organic chemistry one reaction at a time at https://www.aceorganicchem.com
Wanted to say that I have taken one of their seminars, and it was great!! I highly recommend it to anyone having trouble with o-chem. It took me from a D to a B.
I saw this post, took a tutoring session from them last week. It cost me some $$ but it was the only reason I passes my first organic exam. Tutor was awesome.
