Vaishnavi Your chemistry tutor
I have 14+ years of experience teaching Chemistry across multiple boards including IGCSE, A-Levels, AS-Levels, IB, and HSC, along with preparing students for competitive exams like JEE and NEET. I completed my MSc in Chemistry by Research from ICT, Mumbai University, which helped shape my analytical and subject expertise. I have worked with students in both India and the UK through full-time tutoring roles, and I focus on breaking down complex concepts into simple, relatable explanations. Teaching has allowed me to merge subject mastery with mentorship, and I enjoy designing engaging learning experiences that build confidence and conceptual depth. I am deeply committed to student-centric teaching methodologies and continuous academic innovation. I am passionate about making Chemistry engaging, student-friendly, and relevant to real-world learning.

Chemistry class overview
Chemistry is often perceived as a subject heavy in memory work, equations, and abstract theories. To counter this misconception, I always begin by establishing a strong conceptual foundation through intuitive analogies, guided questioning, and relatable examples. Rather than giving definitions first, I help students experience why a concept exists. Once reasoning is established, technical language and formal definitions follow naturally. This promotes durable learning and prevents rote recall. Students grasp faster when Chemistry is connected to daily life. I routinely relate topics to examples from medicine, food chemistry, materials science, sustainability, environmental issues, cosmetics formulation, and industry applications. This broadens perspective and demonstrates relevance. For advanced learners, I occasionally incorporate short research-based discussions linking textbook concepts to current scientific developments (battery chemistry, polymers, pharmaceuticals, spectroscopy, green chemistry etc.). This instills a research mindset early.

Chemistry concepts taught by Vaishnavi
The Tutor and Student worked through numerous problems involving the interpretation of NMR spectral data to deduce organic molecular structures. They practiced identifying functional groups, relating chemical shifts and splitting patterns to molecular fragments, and constructing full molecular structures. The Tutor also provided additional practice sheets for the Student.
TMS as an NMR Standard
Chemical Shift & Functional Groups
Interpreting NMR Integration
Splitting Patterns & Neighboring Protons
The Tutor and Student worked on understanding and applying the concepts of valency and oxidation states to correctly name and write formulas for ionic and some organic compounds. They practiced these skills using a study guide for an upcoming exam, with the next session planned for Thursday.
Valency
Writing Ionic Formulas
Common Polyatomic Ions
Naming Ionic Compounds
Organic Acid Nomenclature
The tutor and student reviewed the concepts of molecularity and rate laws, specifically focusing on how to determine reaction orders from experimental data. They practiced solving problems related to reaction orders and planned to cover the calculation of rate constants in the next session.
Molecularity
Rate Law and Order of Reaction
Determining Reaction Order from Experimental Data
Elementary vs. Complex Reactions
The tutor and student worked on understanding and applying concepts of proton NMR spectroscopy, including integration, chemical shift, and splitting patterns. They practiced predicting and interpreting NMR spectra through several example problems, with plans to focus on integration problems in the next session.
NMR Integration and Proton Ratios
Signal Splitting and Chemical Environment
Resolution and Advanced NMR Techniques
The Student and Tutor reviewed kinetics quiz questions and discussed factors affecting the speed of chemical reactions, including collision theory, surface area, concentration, pressure, temperature, and catalysts. They also introduced rate laws and the difference between elementary and complex reactions. The Tutor assigned a practice sheet and homework for the next session, focusing on rate laws, and scheduled additional classes to catch up on the material.
Rate Laws - Elementary vs. Complex Reactions
Factors Affecting Reaction Rate - Catalysts
Factors Affecting Reaction Rate - Temperature
Factors Affecting Reaction Rate - Concentration
Factors Affecting Reaction Rate - Surface Area
Collision Theory
Factors Affecting Reaction Rate - Pressure
The Student and Tutor practiced identifying organic molecules using IR spectroscopy, focusing on interpreting spectra and determining structures. The Student worked on identifying functional groups and understanding the influence of conjugation and electronegativity on peak positions. The Tutor assigned a practice sheet on IUPAC nomenclature for the next session.
