About
Hello, thanks for visiting my profile.
My name is Michael and I hold a Masters in Chemistry with Biochemistry from Heriot Watt University and PhD in Organic Chemistry from Glasgow University.
Teaching and mentoring is a real passion of mine, and I have been tutoring all levels of chemistry for >10 years.
I have a strong track record of helping students pass exams and help understand the fundamentals of chemistry.
I specialise in organic chemistry, and can help you tackle synthesis, mechanisms, NMR and other analytical techniques.
Offering tuition to the Cumbernauld area, as well as online via Zoom/Teams. Group tuition available depending on size of group.

Reviews from First Tutors
Imported from Dr Michael M.'s First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.
How we verify these
Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:
- Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
- Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.
The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

Mike was so so helpful in preparing for my third-year university Chemistry exams. Before we began the tutoring sessions I was genuinely convinced I would fail my OChem exam, however after only a few sessions I felt so much more confident in my abilities and walked out of my exam feeling very positive about how it went. I cannot thank Mike enough for his help!

Michael was outstanding; helpful, passionate and flexible in working arrangements. He was on hand to communicate when I needed him and I felt fully supported. He is very knowledgeable in his field and was of immense help to me succeeding in a niche subject at postgraduate level.

Michael was able to arrange tuition at short notice. In just one session my daughter felt more confident and capable which is priceless. Michael appears to be a well prepared and highly knowledgeable tutor and we look forward to continue working with him and achieve a positive outcome for grace in her exams.

Michael has helped my daughter with her A level Chemistry for the past couple of months. She has found him to be extreamly patient and explains everything in a clear and easy to understand manner. He uses past papers to asssess her progress to good effect. He is reliable, turns up on time and I would not hesitate to recommend him.
