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 simplifying expressions with exponents and radicals. They practiced applying exponent rules to handle negative exponents and converted radical expressions into exponential form for simplification. The student will continue practicing these concepts.
Negative Exponents
Converting Between Radicals and Fractional Exponents
Exponent Rules for Simplification
Simplifying Radicals
The Student and Tutor reviewed organic chemistry concepts, primarily focusing on isomers, carboxylic acids, and esters. They worked through practice materials and discussed specific functional groups and reaction types, with plans to continue reviewing isomers and other organic chemistry topics in future sessions.
Functional Groups: Carboxylic Acids and Esters
Isomers: Structural and Stereoisomers
Nomenclature of Organic Compounds
Organic Reactions: Esterification and Dehydration
The session involved reviewing chemistry concepts for an upcoming final exam, including solutions, solubility, molar mass calculations, and pressure-temperature relationships. The student practiced problem-solving and reviewed key definitions. The Tutor recommended reviewing notes on polarity and solubility and suggested a follow-up class to further prepare for the final exam by writing out answers to potential exam questions.
Evaporation and Solid Formation
Solutions at the Particle Level
Ideal Gas Law: Pressure and Temperature Relationship
Calculating Number of Moles
Polarity and Molecular Interactions
Calculating Molar Mass
Solubility and Intermolecular Forces
The student reviewed solubility rules to predict the states of matter in chemical reactions and practiced writing balanced molecular and net ionic equations. They worked through a worksheet with multiple reaction examples, determining whether precipitates formed and how to represent the reactions accurately. The tutor suggested confirming with the teacher whether to write out balanced equations when no reaction occurs.
Net Ionic Equations and Spectator Ions
Identifying Precipitates in Reactions
Solubility Rules and Aqueous Solutions
States of Matter in Chemical Reactions
Balancing Molecular Equations
Electrolytes and Dissociation Equations
Derivatives and Differentiation
Intercepts of Curves
Absolute Maximum and Minimum Values
Intervals of Increase and Decrease
Critical Points
The Discriminant
The tutor and student worked through a practice algebra test, focusing on simplifying algebraic expressions and operations with exponents. They reviewed rules for combining like terms, multiplication and division of terms with exponents, and expanding brackets. The tutor provided feedback on the student's work and offered strategies for minimizing errors.
