Stressing Over Chemistry?
You’re not alone.
- AP Chemistry is one of the toughest courses out there (as is IB Chem!), but it doesn’t have to feel that way.
- It takes a bit more than just late nights and hard work.
- It takes understanding the subject so you can become comfortable with Chemistry.
Take a breath. You can absolutely do this.
Meet Your Instructor
Hi, I’m Dr. Vaish Sarathy - Ph.D. chemist, AP educator, and founder of Plum Pudding Chemistry.
I’ve spent 15+ years helping high-school students turn confusion into clarity and stress into strategy.
My mission is simple: to make Chemistry make sense and to make it fun (yes it can happen!)
How I Help Students
Learn, Understand, Solve
Every concept in chemistry is broken down into intuitive, real-world logic.
→ We take a break from memorization.
→ And through story telling + world building + deep problem solving, you’ll see how atoms and molecules actually work together.
When concepts click, when practice is targeted, recall and problem-solving become effortless.
Ace the Test
Turn concepts into confidence
→ Understanding is just the start.
→ We’ll practice applying what you know – breaking down tricky AP-style questions, mastering data analysis, and learning test-smart shortcuts that save time and earn points.
From equations to experiments, you’ll learn to think like a chemist and test like a pro.
Grow Beyond the Test
We don’t just teach chemistry — we train thinkers who question, connect, and create.
→ Chemistry is a doorway.
→ Whether your goal is college acceptance, pre-med track, or a future in research, you’ll build the habits, logic, and confidence that last far beyond this course.
Go beyond the test. Build habits and confidence that last a lifetime.
By exam day, you will be prepared x 10.

“Vaish is the best – and my favorite – tutor out of all the ones I’ve had! She made me really like subjects that I used to find boring before – such as chemistry. I understand concepts ten times better when I learn with Vaish than when I learn them at school. To help me understand new concepts, she would use very interesting analogies – and they help a lot! Aside from being a teacher, Vaish is also a very good person. She really cares about how I do in school and hopes for my success. Her praises make me feel more and more confident about myself.”
