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 session focused on ionic and covalent compounds, including the formation of aluminum chloride and calcium chloride. The Student learned about polyatomic ions and practiced naming ionic compounds containing them. The session concluded with an introduction to polar covalent bonds, electronegativity, and dipole-dipole forces, including hydrogen bonding. The next session will be scheduled for January 14th.
Polar Covalent Bonds and Electronegativity
Dipole-Dipole Forces
Hydrogen Bonding
Covalent Bond Formation
Ionic Compound Formation
Polyatomic Ion Nomenclature
The Student and Tutor reviewed AP Chemistry concepts from units 1-4 using FRQ practice. Topics included stoichiometry, intermolecular forces, and error analysis in calculations. The tutor assigned practice worksheets focusing on MCQs and FRQs from Harvard resources as holiday homework.
Balancing Chemical Equations
Ion-Dipole Interactions
Lattice Energy and Polarization
Hydrolysis Reactions
Stoichiometry and Mass Calculations
Empirical Formula Determination
The Tutor and Student covered ionic and covalent bonding, including the octet rule and exceptions, formation of ions, and drawing Lewis dot structures for ionic and covalent compounds. The Student practiced constructing these structures for multiple examples, focusing on electron transfer and sharing. Electronegativity was introduced as a prelude to polar and non-polar bonds, with homework assigned to reinforce these concepts before the next session.
Drawing Covalent Molecules
Electronegativity (Introduction)
Covalent Bonding
Writing Ionic Bond Formation
Ionic Bonding
Octet Rule and Duet Rule
The Student reviewed multiple-choice questions on chemical bonding, molecular structure, metallic bonding, and alloys. The Tutor provided explanations and visual aids to clarify concepts and problem-solving techniques. The student was assigned a worksheet for further practice and will schedule future lessons after their break.
Ionic and Covalent Bonds
Electronegativity and Bond Polarity
Potential Energy and Bond Strength
Metallic Bonding
Alloys and Hardness
Lewis Structures and Octet Rule
Isomers
The Tutor reviewed chemistry basics, including atomic structure, chemical bonding, properties of water, and organic chemistry. The Student completed a quiz to assess their understanding of these concepts. A worksheet on atomic numbers and atomic mass was assigned for the next session.
Atomic Number (Z)
Mass Number (A)
Electronic Configuration
Valence Shell
Atomic Structure & Models
The Student and Tutor reviewed ideal gas laws, equilibrium, molar volumes, and partial pressures. They worked through FRQ-style problems involving the ideal gas equation and discussed the postulates of the kinetic molecular theory. The Tutor scheduled a follow-up class focused on kinetic theory and deviations from the ideal gas law.
