Divya Raj Mehta - Chemistry tutor in NYC

Are you looking for a teacher who not only teaches but inspires? Someone who can make even the most difficult concepts simple, interesting, and memorable? If yes, then you are in the right place! I am a passionate educator committed to making learning an enjoyable and effective experience for every student. My teaching philosophy is simple: teach from scratch, build strong foundations, and ensure students truly understand what they are learning. One of the biggest challenges students face is trying to grasp concepts they haven’t fully understood in class. Many times, students memorize without understanding, struggle with self-study, or get lost in the complexity of topics. I make it my mission to ensure that each student understands at least 80% of the topic during the class itself. This is not just a promise—it’s a practice . To achieve this, I use a mix of strategies, including interactive discussions, real-life examples, analogies, and problem-solving exercises, that make complex ideas easy to grasp. Whether it’s a challenging concept in science, a tricky problem in mathematics, or a historical event in social studies, I present it in a way that is not only understandable but also engaging. Many students hesitate to ask questions or admit that they are struggling. I create a friendly and supportive learning environment where no question is too small. I provide personalized attention, guiding students step by step until they gain confidence. With my approach, students feel motivated, confident, and ready to take on challenges without fear. I don’t just teach during class hours; I provide complete notes, study materials, and additional help whenever needed. I make sure students have everything they need to succeed.
