...breadth facets of student needs. Chemistry is a subject which includes both theoretical (e.g. crude facts, reactions, reagents, etc..) and experimental aspects. Many students try to learn the materials by just memorizing the reactions and their concepts. In my opinion, we should try to promote the learning of chemistry through a more profound mechanistic approach. Students should be given the opportunity to participate in their parts for learning and achieving their objectives. As a tutor,...
