🙌 This was my go-to homework help when I was in school. Chegg Study is one of my favorites.

📚 I made the mistake of buying all of my textbooks, I wish I had the option of renting them. Thankfully you do, with Chegg Textbook Rentals.

💁‍♀️ HI I'M MELISSA MARIBEL
I help students pass Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. I used to struggle with this subject, so when I finally graduated with a bachelor's degree in Chemistry, I became a tutor so that you wouldn't have to struggle like I did. I know that with the right help, YOU CAN LEARN ANYTHING!

Seriously, like... I stress out so much trying to digest the info in this online Chem class, then I find your videos and the material is suddenly so easy. These tutor videos help SO MUCH. I got a B+ on my midterm, gearing up for at least that on the final in a couple weeks. If it wasn't for you, I would've had to drop out of this class and second-guess my dream of grad school. Thank you so much Melissa.

You're a great resource to the students of the world. I'm a mature learner. All my life I thought that math and science was always going to be out of reach until I realized that I was actually struggling with ADD. You have such a clear voice and teach with understanding and Melissa echoes my thoughts frequently. It also helps that you're on YouTube as I can pause and replay on demand. Thank you so much. The world runs at such a fast pace at this age but you make it possible to learn.

That was a good explanation, the study with us format is good for keeping attention, thank you!

Going through Gen Chem I in college while a pandemic is going on has been really hard, but you truly have helped me out so much! Thank you for doing what you do!

[deadbzeus]

Struggled for a week with this, you finally made it clear. Thank you so much.

[pervah]

I just did my chemistry exam and I did well thanks to your videos! Cheers

[nicnac]

Your way is so much easier than I was taught thank you 😊

[Kater]

Thank you much for posting this tutoring session! We began covering this yesterday with zero visual aids besides prof pointing to the periodic table and a mishmash of writing on a white board. This is EXACTLY what I needed...I went from sad grumbling to interested with just one video. YES!

[ryanchang]

You literally saved my life from this hard topic. THANK YOU!

[kikinakos]

Thank you SO much for this video! I'm taking a summer course and was expected to do this on a homework assignment without it even being explained. You're a lifesaver!

[veronicabenitez]

this concept was a little harder to grasp but finally on the last example it started clicking thank you for not just stopping at 3 examples besides everything else of course <3

[tjmartin]

I'm an engineer taking material science and never learned how to do these. Thanks so much for the video it really helped!

[almudenajoorubatto]

I have been sick for over a week now (missing all classes) and my teacher just told me I have to take an exam tmr, you are going to be the only reason I pass. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

[jaydat]

I've been confused in my chem class and this just took a load of stress off of my back, thank you so much!!

[mepartyof]

This video is amazing and it certainly makes you appreciate the genius of the people that created the periodic table. Thank you so much for teaching this.

[navjotsingh]

Please do more and more videos like this. It's nice to see it in this format, makes videos feel more human!!!

You are awesome and I hope you help us future biologists/chemists/engineers become better!

[sandeepsinghbhatti]

Melissa yes i got it especially writing the electron configuration of each element it was confusing in the beginning but as you walked as through with examples the confusion was gone. Thank you :)

[Babygirlrissa]

This helped me so much my teacher didnt even use the periodic table in showing us how to do this . Thanks melissa your the best

[rachelyoung]

It helps so much to watch you teach this to a student, so many questions I had she asked and then you clarified on. So helpful, thank you for providing these videos

[jeffreyschnitman]

I learned from watching the videos over and over. Until I absorbed the material. Thank you very much Melissa.
