Personal Description:

I am Dr. Simon , a dedicated chemist with a PhD in medicinal and bioinorganic chemistry from the Dublin City University.

As a full-time researcher, I explore cutting-edge advancements in targeting DNA, with publications in leading journals such as Nucleic Acids Research and Methods.

My academic journey began with a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from DCU where I graduated 2019. I am an active member of Royal Society of Chemistry and involved in a number of high-profile annual international conferences.

Outside the lab, I enjoy playing music, which keeps me inspired and energised to share my passion for science with students.

Tutoring Experience:

With over five years of experience teaching and mentoring, I have worked with students at various levels, from university undergraduates to secondary school students preparing for the Leaving Certificate. My teaching philosophy centres on making chemistry accessible, engaging, and relevant.

I understand that topics like organic nomenclature or stoichiometry can be challenging, so I break them down into clear, manageable concepts using real-world examples, such as chemical reactions in everyday products. For Leaving Cert students, I provide targeted preparation, covering the full syllabus, analysing past papers, and teaching exam strategies to boost confidence and performance.

Approach to Grinds:

As a researcher, I bring up-to-date knowledge and enthusiasm to my tutoring sessions, offering insights into advanced topics for students pursuing chemistry at higher levels.

Based in France, I offer flexible online tutoring, using digital tools like virtual whiteboards and chemical simulations to create interactive lessons.

My goal is to help students not only achieve top grades but also develop a genuine curiosity for chemistry. Whether you’re aiming for an H1 in the Leaving Cert or exploring university-level concepts, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
