CrackOChem_OChem Basics II - pt 4

This video picks up right where the Organic Chemistry Basics Part I video leaves off. We will finish learning the fundamentals of organic chemistry to give you a solid foundation for the rest of the course. Here we talk about VSEPR Theory and the 2 Main Bonding Theories (molecular orbital theory and orbital hybridization theory). Enjoy!

About The Tutor

Garrett is a Harvard graduate. While earning his doctorate from the Harvard School Of Dental Medicine, he was hired by the university to propose and develop educational videos to complement the curriculum. During this time he worked with instructors at the medical and dental school to produce video tutorials in the areas of neurobiology, cardiology, pharmacology, radiology and pre-clinical dental laboratory.

However, Garrett's love for tutoring and helping students be able to understand complex subjects in a simple manner began with organic chemistry. He was initially told by his family, friends and instructors that organic chemistry would be the worst class he would ever take in college. Fortunately, with a lot of sweat, a few tears, and plenty of dry erase markers, Garrett was able to "crack the code" behind organic chemistry. In the process, he discovered a technique to teach ochem in a logical, straight forward manner, and the "CrackOChem" project was born. He spent the next several years developing this technique and passing it on to others through university organic chemistry tutorials, a study club, and organic polymer research. He was later hired by the University of California, Irvine for a full time position teaching advanced tutorials in chemistry and biology, and was also responsible for the hiring, training, and managing of university tutors.

Garrett is currently in orthodontic residency, but continues to actively help students through tutoring and future editions of organic chemistry video tutorials.

Hi purplepick1, thanks for the comment. Regarding the titles, it's just the first couple videos (g chem review, o chem basics I, o chem basics II) that have general titles because they cover the core principles for the foundation of o chem. In later videos, the title of the video is more specific to the topics. For example...

4. acids & bases

5. alkanes

6. alkenes

7. free radicals

8. nucleophilic substitutions

etc.

Thanks for watching!

By watching your videos, I feel like I'm in a real college study group. So I think it's fantastic because the advanced chemistry study group isn't offered at my school.

Thanks for doing these!

I think it would help a lot if you put in the title what the video is about so that it makes it easier to find what we are looking for :)
