Michael Dancziger has taught General Chemistry
to Pre-Health students and General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry
to students preparing for the MCAT. He has also been tutoring high school
students in Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics for several years. Michael
has an intuitive sense for what might be the difficult points in chemistry
topics. He is always looking for new ways to explain concepts to make
them clearer and easier to understand. He very much enjoys interacting
with students and believes that students learn most effectively when the
subject is made relevant through examples from everyday life.
