Reshma Your chemistry tutor
I am an experienced math, science, and business teacher with over 15 years of experience working with students of all ages and levels. I also teach IELTS and ESL. I work with students' individual needs to help them excel and create a supportive and inclusive learning environment. I teach topics such as math equations, factoring, number sense, chemical bonding, atomic structure, and physical chemistry. I also teach topics in general science such as biological compounds, states of matter, and basic physics. I am adept at tailoring my teaching methods to cater to individual student needs, ensuring a thorough understanding of the subject matter. Whether it's homework help, test prep strategies, or review sessions, I offer comprehensive support to enhance learning outcomes. I look forward to embarking on this learning journey!

Chemistry class overview
My teaching methodology is grounded in a student-centered, inclusive, and adaptive approach that prioritizes meaningful engagement, critical thinking, and real-world application. I believe that teaching is not simply the delivery of information, but the facilitation of learning — where students are active participants in their own intellectual, emotional, and social development. At the core of my methodology is the belief that every student learns differently, and it is my responsibility as an educator to create a learning environment that recognizes and nurtures that diversity. I draw upon a blend of pedagogical strategies — including constructivist, inquiry-based, experiential, and collaborative learning models — to build lessons that are not only educational but also relevant and empowering. Student-Centered Learning Rather than positioning myself as the sole source of knowledge, I strive to create a learning space where students feel ownership over their learning journey. This means encouraging curiosity, giving students choices, and allowing space for exploration. I use techniques like flipped classrooms, project-based learning, and open discussions to shift the focus from passive absorption to active discovery. When students are given the opportunity to explore topics that interest them, within a structured framework, they become more engaged and intrinsically motivated. I support this by offering multiple means of content delivery — visual, auditory, kinesthetic — and varied methods of assessment, ensuring all learning styles are accommodated.

Chemistry concepts taught by Reshma
The tutor and student worked on identifying types of chemical reactions and understanding polyatomic ions. The student practiced applying these concepts to homework problems, with the tutor providing explanations and resources. They planned to continue practicing these types of reactions in future sessions.
Types of Chemical Reactions
Polyatomic Ions and Charges
Balancing Chemical Equations
The Tutor and Student reviewed the topic of thermodynamics and calorimetry in chemistry. The Student completed an online quiz and then worked through practice problems applying the Q=mcΔT formula. They also discussed endothermic and exothermic reactions and practiced calculations related to heat transfer and temperature change, concluding with a practice quiz.
Specific Heat Capacity
Endothermic and Exothermic Processes
Temperature Units in Calculations
Calorimetry
The tutor and student reviewed the fundamental concepts of chemical equilibrium, including its dynamic nature and the conditions required for it to occur. They practiced writing equilibrium expressions (KC) for different chemical reactions and discussed how macroscopic properties remain constant at equilibrium. The next session will involve further practice with these calculations and potentially an introduction to Le Chatelier's principle.
Chemical Equilibrium
Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Equilibrium
Conditions for Equilibrium
Equilibrium Constant (Kc)
The student and tutor worked through a physics assignment involving graphical analysis of motion. They practiced plotting data points, determining appropriate graph scales, calculating average speed using the distance over time formula, and finding the slope of the graph using both graphical (triangles) and algebraic methods. The next steps involve continuing to work on the assignment, with the tutor available for further assistance.
Calculating Slope from a Graph
Line of Best Fit
Speed and Its Calculation
Graphical Analysis in Physics
The student and tutor focused on chemistry test preparation, practicing balancing chemical equations, identifying reaction types, and understanding concepts like polyatomic ions and electrolysis. They worked through study packet problems, with the tutor providing guidance and explanations. The next meeting is scheduled after the test to discuss performance.
Balancing Chemical Equations
Types of Chemical Reactions
Polyatomic Ions
Redox Reactions and Electrolysis
The Student and Tutor worked on identifying chemical compounds from descriptive names and writing their corresponding formulas. They practiced nomenclature rules, including the use of prefixes and valence, and were introduced to the concept of transition metals and their variable charges, with plans to delve deeper into this topic next session.
Nomenclature of Binary Ionic Compounds
Diatomic Molecules
Naming Covalent Compounds (with Prefixes)
Transition Metals and Variable Charges
