Chemistry class overview
My tutoring style is exam- focused, interactive And visually engaging, emphasising patience to ensure students grasp complex concepts effectively. I specialise in teaching a wide range of chemistry subjects from inorganic to Organic chemistry, using tools like microsoft Teams ,zoom and interactive whiteboards. I follow a comprehensive curriculum covering Topic like chemical bonding, atomic structure, and biochemistry. With over 200 students taught, I work with elementary, middle and high school students, tailoring my approach to suit their individual learning needs, ensuring they excel academically. Lecture-Based Teaching • Use concept maps and flowcharts for complex pathways (e.g., glycolysis, Krebs cycle). • Incorporate storytelling (e.g., how ATP is “the currency of energy”). • Integrate clinical correlations (e.g., diabetes in carbohydrate metabolism).

Chemistry concepts taught by Srishti
The session covered organic chemistry concepts, specifically the Birch reduction mechanism for alkynes and aromatic compounds, and delved into the complexities of radical polymerization, including RAFT polymerization and its associated mechanisms. The student worked on applying these concepts to specific reaction scenarios, and a plan was made to revisit polymerization concepts in future sessions due to the remaining time constraints and the complexity of the topic.
Birch Reduction Mechanism
Radical Polymerization (RAFT)
Inductive Effect in Organic Chemistry
The Tutor and Student reviewed several organic chemistry reaction mechanisms, including carbocation rearrangements (Wagner-Mirwin shift), elimination reactions (dehydrohalogenation with Zaitsev's rule), and alkene functionalization (hydroboration-oxidation, epoxidation, ozonolysis). They also discussed the role of DMSO and other reagents in oxidation and SN2 reactions. The session concluded with a plan to cover alkynes, NMR spectroscopy, and ranking problems in upcoming sessions.
Wagner-Meerwein Rearrangement
Elimination Reactions (E1 & E2)
Hydroboration-Oxidation
Oxidation Reactions (Ozonolysis
Epoxidation)
The Tutor guided the Student through various addition reactions of alkenes, including hydrohalogenation, hydration (acid-catalyzed and oxymercuration-demercuration), catalytic hydrogenation, halogenation, and ozonolysis. They practiced identifying reagents and predicting products based on reaction mechanisms and rules like Markovnikov's and anti-Markovnikov's. The session concluded with a plan to continue practicing these concepts with the Student's problem sets.
Electrophilic Addition to Alkenes
Markovnikov's Rule and Anti-Markovnikov's Rule
Hydroboration-Oxidation and Oxymercuration-Demercuration
Ozonolysis and Carbonyl Compounds
The Student and Tutor reviewed nomenclature, physical properties, and the importance of alkenes. The student practiced IUPAC naming. They also discussed lipids, fats, and oils, including the effects of saturated versus unsaturated fats on cholesterol levels and heart health. The tutor assigned reviewing lesson two before the next session.
Alkenes: Structure and Reactivity
Nomenclature of Alkenes
Cis-Trans Isomerism in Alkenes
Physical Properties of Alkenes
Interesting Alkenes: Ethylene and Polyethylene
Lipids: Triglycerides
Fatty Acids and Health
The Tutor and Student worked through complex enolate chemistry problems, focusing on reaction mechanisms involving LDA and DMAP. They analyzed enolate formation, alkylation, and acylation reactions, including a detailed step-by-step mechanism for a multi-reagent reaction. The Student will practice a similar problem as homework.
Role of DMAP as a Catalyst
Stereochemistry in Enolate Reactions
Acylation of Enolates
Enolate Alkylation
Enolate Formation Mechanism
The Tutor and Student worked through Aldol condensation reactions, including their mechanisms and variations like the Nitroaldol (Henry) reaction. The session covered the formation of aldol products, dehydration, and the nucleophilic attack steps. The Tutor planned to cover Claisen condensation in a future session.
