I was lucky to have Shashi Sir as my chem tutor as his time slots are booked prior to Diwali for coming academic session. Before grade 9, Chemistry was the subject I feared the most. I remember telling Sir to go slow with me as I didn't understand anything in chemistry. But under his guidance, chemistry became my favourite subject. I could have never imagined that I would end up liking chem. My new found liking for the subject started to show in my grades soon. I started to put in more effort in studying it. Sir's method of teaching made chem seem easier. If I didn't understand a thing he would explain it until I understood it. By writing his tests, I understood the kinds of questions that could be asked in the exams (term and boards). He warned me about the usual mistakes made by students. In the end, I feel all this grueling on his and my part paid off. Chemistry was the best paper for me to write in boards. Now I feel that chem was never a tough subject to begin with (no subject is ), it depends on how the teacher is.
