"Through my once a week private coaching with Donovan, I became a skilled learner and a better student. I began my chemistry course with little confidence and even worse math skills, but Donovan worked with me each week to become a more confident test taker and gave me strategies to work through complex math problems.
Donovan shows his students how capable and smart they are by working with their strengths to help them succeed to their best ability. He taught me that working on the concepts is just as important as being able to power through practice problems. All of these are skills I think I would not have been able to learn anywhere else. Thank you Donovan!"

"Donovan is not only one of the most hard-working and intelligent people I know, but he is also incredibly caring. His natural instinct for teaching was apparent from the first time I met with him; I knew he would do everything he could to help me succeed and I found a lot of comfort in that. He had so many tips for studying, approaching exams, and understanding concepts that helped me get an A- in the course. I am a division 1 athlete and I didn’t have much time in my schedule to go to professor office hours, so having Donovan really helped me. He had good availability for tutoring sessions and would always be willing to answer any questions that I had. I would recommend him to anyone, he is amazing!!!

"Donovan is hands down the best coach I could have ever asked for! He helped me raise my grade in general chemistry from a C+ to a B+ through a wide variety of techniques! Furthermore, his positive energy and determination to help had such an impact that I have even become a tutor for general chemistry myself, which is something I would have never imagined... I can not thank him enough. He will not only change your outlook on chemistry, but on life as well!!!"

"Chemistry 101 freshman year was extremely difficult, from Alex (online problem set), the discussion packets, and the confusing lectures… I fell behind and was so lost I thought I wouldn’t be able to pass! Donovan was so helpful and supportive, getting tutoring with ChemCoach helped me get on top of Chem 101 and actually gave me study skills that I still use as a senior."!

I have loved working with Donovan!! Besides the clear explanations he has given me with difficult problems and chemistry concepts, he has boosted my confidence in myself to do well in chem and all my other classes! The help I receive goes far beyond the couple of hours we spend together a week. He has also taught me the tools to study and be successful on my own. Thank you Donovan!!
