My name is Jason Dinsmore and I am the creator of Organic Chemist On Call. I first began teaching chemistry in 1998, and I have been doing so ever since. I decided to create this online and in-person tutoring service in October of 2011 in order to provide students with help in organic chemistry on their time. I started with a dry erase whiteboard, a webcam, and one student in North Carolina. Now, I have been fortunate enough to have tutored all around the world! I never thought it would grow into what it is today.
My intention is to provide the highest quality of education on your schedule. I understand that students these days are swamped with many academic and extracurricular activities. Therefore, I want to make sure that you have every opportunity to maximize your potential.
My overall goals are:
To make it easier and more accessible for students to get help
To distill down organic chemistry into its basic essentials thereby simplifying the
subject matter
To get students actively involved in their learning
I have discovered over my teaching tenure that it is not that students dont understand organic chemistry, it is that they believe this is the case; many have bought into the myths that circulate about organic chemistry around the academic environments. From my own experience, I have yet to have a tutoring session where the student has not grasped the concepts within the first 5 minutes of a session. It is just a matter of recontextualizing the subject matter in a more friendly and digestible manner so the students can incorporate it into their language and style of learning.
Look forward to seeing you online!
