Your biology tutor - Lipika
I'm Lipika, completed my Master's degree in Science. I have been teaching both online and offline for more than 6 years, working with students from India, USA, Canada & Australia. I have authored high school books for NGSS standard curriculum. I was working as an Academic Head for an ed-tech unicorn previously. I teach all science subjects till grade 10 and Physics, chemistry & geology till grade 12. I have tutored 300+ students. I love interacting with students and exposing them to the world of different possibilities. Hence, I take up different curriculum and spread knowledge. I prefer teaching on a blank page because I feel there is a scope to take students to a world of possibilities from blank to a vast diversity of knowledge. I use a simple blank page and use different colors for the demarcation of different things. Usually, the structure of the class includes recalling the topics of the previous class, introducing a new topic, solving problems from the topic, and ending the class after completing the topic with a summary of the class. I try correlating everything to the realistic world, and it helps students to understand the topic better. The practical use of the topics is very important, and I try to provide a glimpse of the use of the topic of discussion in practical life as well. I also help my students with their assignments, homework, and test preparation. I always take regular feedback from my students and parents and also give my feedback on the students performance, so that the tutoring sessions are effective for the learner.
Lipika graduated from The University of Burdwan

Biology concepts taught by Lipika
The student and tutor explored the concepts of microevolution and macroevolution, with a detailed focus on the mechanisms and types of speciation (allopatric, sympatric, peripatric, and parapatric). They also briefly discussed mass extinctions and the geological time scale, with the tutor providing downloadable resources for further study on natural selection and evolution.
Microevolution vs. Macroevolution
Speciation: The Birth of New Species
Geological Time Scale and Mass Extinctions
The Student and Tutor reviewed the core concepts of evolution, focusing on natural selection, evidence from fossil records, and the formation of different fossil types. They also explored biogeography, anatomical evidence for evolution (homologous and analogous structures), and the principles of divergent and convergent evolution, concluding with an overview of phylogenetic trees.
Biogeography and Endemism
The Lily Put Effect and Mass Extinction Survival
Divergent vs. Convergent Evolution
Types of Fossils and Their Formation
The Tutor and Student reviewed thermodynamic potentials and the Van der Waals equation, contrasting it with the ideal gas law and explaining correction terms for intermolecular forces and molecular volume. They explored phase diagrams, critical points, and the law of corresponding states, and briefly introduced Helmholtz free energy and partition functions for relating microscopic and macroscopic states.
Vanderal's Equation
Helmholtz Free Energy
Law of Corresponding States
Critical Temperature and Pressure
The Tutor and Student reviewed and practiced problems related to the Ideal Gas Law, Avogadro's Law, and Graham's Law of Effusion. They focused on applying these laws to calculate various gas properties such as temperature, pressure, moles, rates of effusion, and molar masses, with a plan to continue with more rate questions.
The Ideal Gas Law (PV=nRT)
Avogadro's Law
Graham's Law of Effusion
Molar Mass and Gas Density
The Student and Tutor reviewed the three modes of natural selection (directional, stabilizing, and disruptive) and their effects on populations. They then delved into the Calvin cycle, discussing its role in photosynthesis as the dark reaction for carbon fixation and sugar production. The session included an explanation of the Kelvin cycle's reactants, products, and its dependence on ATP and NADPH.
Modes of Natural Selection
The Calvin Cycle (Light-Independent Reactions)
Photosynthesis: Light-Dependent vs. Light-Independent Reactions
The tutor and student reviewed gas laws, including Boyle's, Charles's, Gay-Lussac's, and the combined gas law, through practice problems. They also covered calculating molar mass and applying Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures, with plans to continue practice on gas laws and rate problems.
