What is the Chemistry Made Simple Podcast?

4 min • 19 januari 2021

An introduction to your host Matthew, and how he can help you grow your chemistry grade.

His key value is to demystify chemistry as much as possible, to clear the fog, to simplify.

Each episode will bring you the essence of a topic, the clear account of what you need to know. An account that has been distilled through his face-to-face tuition with students just like you.
