Several scientific literatures enumerated some problems and concerns while research reports elucidated some solutions and options. Incorporated in this article are existing issues and current trends in organic chemistry education which can inform students and teachers of challenges and possibilities in the field. Pedagogies of various forms and mode are reported and discussed on its use and potential impact to the teaching and learning process.
