About Nivyan

Bio

Hi, I’m Nivyan! I’m a Texas A&M alumnus with a Bachelor’s degree in Nuclear Engineering and a Master’s degree in Materials Science and Engineering. I have 13+ years of tutoring experience helping high school, AP, and college students improve their understanding, confidence, and grades in math and science.

Hi, I’m Nivyan! I’m a Texas A&M alumnus with a Bachelor’s degree in Nuclear Engineering and a Master’s degree in Materials Science and Engineering. I have 13+ years of tutoring experience helping high school, AP, and college students improve their understanding, confidence, and grades in math and science.

I specialize in helping students turn confusing math and science courses into structured, manageable systems. My goal is not just to help with one assignment or test, but to help students understand the material, recognize patterns, build stronger problem-solving habits, and become more confident independent learners.

At Texas A&M, I served as a Graduate Teaching Assistant in the first-year Chemistry program, where I led labs for General Chemistry II and Chemistry for Engineers. That experience taught me how to explain challenging concepts clearly to students with different backgrounds and levels of preparation.

My main areas include General Chemistry, Honors Chemistry, AP Chemistry, introductory college chemistry, high school physics, AP Physics 1, college physics, statistics, algebra, geometry, and precalculus. In chemistry, I help with stoichiometry, atomic structure, bonding, intermolecular forces, thermochemistry, kinetics, equilibrium, acids and bases, electrochemistry, and lab concepts.

My tutoring style is patient, structured, and student-centered. I help students understand the “why” behind each concept, connect formulas to ideas, organize their work, and develop reliable systems they can apply on their own.

Each session is customized to the student’s needs, whether that means step-by-step explanations, focused test review, AP/college-level practice, or accountability to stay consistent. I adjust my pacing and practice based on the student’s course, goals, and upcoming assessments.

Whether you are trying to catch up, prepare for an exam, strengthen your foundation, or aim for a high score, I would be happy to help.

Chemistry

As a highly experienced chemistry tutor with over 10 years of experience, I have a proven track record of helping students succeed. I am a former Graduate Teaching Assistant at Texas A&M University, where I taught General Chemistry II and Chemistry for Engineers Labs. My expertise in chemistry is further demonstrated by my A's in all college-level chemistry courses, including Organic and Analytical, as well as a 770 out of 800 on the SAT Chemistry Subject Test. I specialize in tutoring high school chemistry, AP Chemistry, General Chemistry I and II, and Chemistry for Engineers. My primary focus is on the mathematical aspect of chemistry, including Stoichiometry, Gas Laws, Thermochemistry, Equilibrium, Dimensional Analysis, Nuclear Chemistry, Kinetics and more. Additionally, I am available to tutor Fundamentals of Materials Science and Engineering on a case-by-case basis, having completed two Fundamentals Materials Science courses, NUEN 265 and MSEN 601. If you're looking for a dedicated and experienced chemistry tutor, look no further. I am confident in my ability to help you achieve your goals and excel in your studies.

Wonderful Chemistry tutor

Nivyan is a wonderful chemistry tutor. He was extremely helpful and made everything so much easier for my daughter to understand. He made sure she comprehended everything by making amazing analogies to relate chemistry concepts to things in real life. She is so much more confident about the topics and we truly appreciate Nivyan's tutoring. 10/10!

Zarna, 7 lessons with Nivyan

Great help, again.

Was struggling with a few concepts, Nivyan helped me out quite a bit. Good advice for practicing as well, am thankful for the help.

Noah, 4 lessons with Nivyan

Helped me get a 100 on my test!

I was really struggling with the mole and mole conversion concepts, but after one session was able to get a 100 on my AP Chemistry Exam!

Kind and knowledgeable tutor - recommended for ADHD students

My Tenth grade son is getting help with his AP Chemistry from Nivyan. My son has ADHD and Nivyan was very patient with with him. My son reported that he was also very knowledgeable and explained concepts very carefully and in detail.

Anne, 9 lessons with Nivyan

Very patient

Very patient, understanding and helpful. Will continue to use going forward. He didn’t rush or throw mathematical terms at me, he assessed what I needed and made adjustments to my learning style. For that I am very grateful.

Marie, 1 lesson with Nivyan

Excellent tutor!

Nivyan helped my son prepare & go over material for his HS Chemistry class & some Regents prep. He was struggling with the material. He is very flexible, & has a great way to help my son with ADHD understand the material. We highly recommend booking with Nivyan.

Benjamin , 10 lessons with Nivyan

Excellent tutor!

Nivyan helped my son prepare & go over material for his HS Chemistry test. He was struggling with the material. His exam score went up 30 points, and he was able to understand the concept much better. Highly recommend booking with Nivyan.

Benjamin , 10 lessons with Nivyan

awesome!

Nivyan has been an amazing help with my chem course. He is very knowledgeable and great at explaining concepts. I appreciate that he prepares practice problems and explains the thought process in solving them. I would highly recommend Nivyan!

Jamie, 1 lesson with Nivyan

Best tutor I've had by far

Nivyan helped me with chemical kinetics, a challenging chemistry topic, but walked me through it like it was elementary school math. I recommend him to anyone who needs help; it was worth every second of the session.

Derek, 1 lesson with Nivyan

Excellent teacher

Nivyan was able explain chemistry concepts to my daughter in a clear and concise way. We look forward to have future sessions with him on a time to time manner
