Is your organic chemistry exam coming up? Wouldn't it be great if there was a study resource available that actually saved you time and still helped you achieve an "A"? If you're ready to simplify organic chemistry, take the first step to reclaiming your semester and earning the grade you deserve. Join my study group!

I know what it can be like the night before an organic chemistry exam. It isn't always pretty. By the end of the night, you've reached decision fatigue. You just want to be done, and you're desperately hoping that the information you've reviewed will "stick" for at least a few more hours (or until your exam is done).

I can help. I've put together a series of comprehensive video study guides. In them, I’ll study the material with you, going over all of the relevant content (no shortcuts!). I’ll help you learn and master the material in the shortest amount of time possible before your next exam. When it's time to study, watch the videos, do some practice problems, and ask me any questions you may have. Soon, you'll be ready to ace your next exam.

Not only do I know and love the subject of organic chemistry, but I have a PhD in organic chemistry education. I have spent years researching how chemistry students study, and I know the best way to help you learn the material for your next exam. My video study guides use research-based principles to help you review the content, master it, and do well in the course.

This review unit covers content from the first unit of organic chemistry: content that you will see in most first exams of the semester. Review the class curriculum below to ensure that it covers the content you need to study. When you're ready, give it a shot: let me be your study partner for your next exam. I'll help you study the RIGHT way.

This unit will review the following topics:

-Chemical Representations

-IUPAC Nomenclature

-Functional Groups

-Boiling Point Trends

-Hybridized Orbitals

-Molecular Orbital Theory

-Constitutional Isomers

-Resonance

-Trends in Acidity/Basicity

-Reaction Mechanisms
