Dr. Mignerey's Exam Style

Many students find that Dr. Mignerey goes on tangents during lecture, often leaving them confused about what topics are tested and what's not tested.
Exceptions-to-the-rule are frequently introduced to students for the first time on exams or briefly mentioned during class, but with no examples.
In Fall 2020, she posted 1 old exam for CHEM 135 and CHEM 271. If you tutor with me I will provide you the past 10 semesters worth of pre-online and online exams to study.
Most exams are designed for students to finish, or answer accurately, but not BOTH at the same time.

    Why Tutor with Me for Dr. Mignerey's CHEM 135 and CHEM 271?

    • Protect Your Grade - Exam 1 sets the stage for rest of semester - build your confidence early so you avoid an uphill battle mid-semester.

      Focus on What's "Actually" Tested - I emphasize topics that I know have been historically tested on in your class during our sessions. I'll reinforce really important subjects that you'll need to know to pass your exams and get your desired grade.

      Review Any Topic - It's difficult to stay engaged watching online lectures. I know this because I've experienced it myself. I can go over anything you did not fully take-in during class and re-explain concepts in a way that you'll understand.

      Accelerated Catch Up - If you're behind, I'll help you catch up 10x faster than studying on your own using private resources.
