Personal Statement

Hi! My name is Kristy, and I love chemistry!!! I am currently a chemistry instructor at Point Park University. I also taught high school chemistry in Altoona, and I worked as a chemist at Los Alamos National Lab in New Mexico. I also tutored chemistry for several years while I was a student at Penn State University.

I realize and understand that chemistry is a difficult subject for many students. My strengths are my patience and my ability to explain material in a way that most stude...

Kristy is very compassionate and knowledgeable about chemistry. I love how patient she?s with my son, it help him to have confidence when it?s time to take his test. She came ready and bring work for him to do. Thank you Kristy

Kristy was very quick and thorough to explain questions and did a very good job at showing how to work out problems!
- Laura M. from Atlanta, GA
Kristy was absolutely wonderful! She is definitely an expert in Chemistry. Soo smart, so thorough, and so patient. She was really able to bring things down to my level of understanding. I would recommend her as a tutor for anyone.

After working with my son a few times, he went from getting D?s on quizzes and tests to B?s and A?s. She teaches to what he needs and is patient in answering all of his questions. It is worth every penny to help with his confidence in a really hard subject.

Kristy was able to review the specific issues that my daughter was having in Chemistry. It was their first class, so we look forward to her continued help in assisting my daughter to master the subject.

Kristy has worked with our son this year for AP Chemistry and I recommend her without reservation to anyone who needs to go in depth in chemistry. In a few weeks our son went from Bs to straight As and aced all his tests for the rest of the year. If you're looking for a tutor in chemistry, look no further!
- Diana M. from Pittsburgh, PA
Kirsty began with material that my son presented. She worked at his level, checking for understanding at each point. Kirsty did a wonderful job working with my son and clarifying concepts. I appreciated her feedback regarding my son's role/ time commitment in studying
- Amy M. from Pittsburgh, PA
Kristy is always on time, easy to reach, very organized, explains the concept very well. We are glad to have her.
- Salma J. from Sewickley, PA
Kristy has really made my teenage daughter feel at ease and comfortable to ask questions if she is not understanding something. Kristy takes the time to make sure that my daughter feels good about the lessons and has given her the confidence in Algebra that she wasn't getting from her teacher in school. The tutoring has made a difference in her grades after a couple of lessons! We would highly recommend Kristy to anyone!

I've been working with Kristy for a Gen Chemistry 1 class. I must say she is a tremendous help! She explains complicated topics in a way that is understandable, she is very patient, and she helps me focus on what is important in order to pass the class. Chemistry is my most difficult subject and she is helping me get through it and working with her makes it a lot less scary. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
- Valerie S. from Springdale, PA
I have given Kristy the materials that I need to know and she always is well versed in my material so she can teach it to me. I always leave our meetings with a much greater understanding. I feel much more confident when I go to class. When I come to her quietly worrying that my homework and projects are just too difficult, she dispels any of my anxiety and I leave in peace. Without her I would have never gotten a A on my project. We got it done in good time to enable me to start studying for the final.

Kristy has helped my granddaughter so much with her first college class. Chemistry was so hard for her and Kristy helped her understand it. My granddaughter is so comfortable with Kristy. So happy I found WyzAnt and especially Kristy!! Kristy is the greatest!! She continues to make herself available when my grand daughter needs her! We appreciate that so much! I do not know what grade my grand daughter would have without Kristy! Only 3 more chemistry classes left. We will miss Kristy but will definitely keep her in mind if we ever need someone for chemistry in the future.

Kristy is working with my 8-year-old son who has very high functioning autism. He's a total chemistry geek and she eagerly took on the challenge. Kristy showed up to the first lesson ready to work and had a seemingly effortless knack for keeping the lesson fun and educational all the while adapting to my son's current knowledge base. We couldn't be happier and are looking very forward to our next lesson! Update: We've now had four lessons and feel very fortunate to have found Kristy. She's wonderful & the perfect fit for our family. Couldn't be happier.
- Lisa A. from Tarentum, PA
I had Kristy help me with my chemistry class at the University of Pittsburgh and she was incredibly helpful! She was so patient and was willing to meet me/call me whenever I needed. I really appreciate everything she did to help me, and I would highly recommend her!
