How I can help
Chemistry
More than 3 years experience
I love chemistry. Teaching chemistry is natural. I teach it with stories, anecdotes, playful calculations and depth in a friendly and passionate style.
Chemistry is why we are alive, move about and communicate From DNA to fiber optics, drugs to fabrics. I sometimes dream of seeing electrons move from hydrogen to chlorine, forming hydrochloric acid in the process. It's just a dream which is also a form of chemical reactions in the brain.
The first thing I tell my students is that we are a bunch of chemicals. Atoms, molecules, and ions linked together in a seemingly complicated yet decipherable manner. Understanding the basis of this linking is what differentiates a chemist from a herbalist. It's about structures and properties. Why do metals conduct electricity and non-metals do not? Why graphites are electrodes and diamonds are not? It's just the structural configuration of ELECTRONS in their shapes.
Electrons are free to move in metals and graphites, not in non-metals and diamonds.
Nelson also teaches:
Verbal Reasoning, Physics, Writing Business Plan, Elementary Mathematics, Basic Sciences, General Mathematics, Basic Mathematics, English Language, Quantitative Reasoning, Biology, Computer ScienceLevels taught: Primary, Jss, Sss and Undergraduate
Teaching Curriculum: Nigerian, British, American
It's more experience-focused. Offers ideas for practicals and requires a thorough understanding of the subject matter. For instance, the British curriculum emphasizes understanding the particulates nature of matter as the first step in secondary science education.
