Teaching is my passion and I am a teacher by choice.
I enjoy teaching and coding.
I believe learning is for life and invest most of my time in teaching and learning.
I view the problems from students' point  and believe concepts can be better understood with precise examples and good explanation.
I put in efforts to translate complex concepts into simple and clear form to understand, with real life examples that the children/students can relate to.

My teaching style is flexible and it is based on what students know, want to know and what they do not know. I train the children to analyze problems, design, develop, and improve computer programs with best programming strategies
Learning is made much more enjoyable..be it coding process or solving arithmetic problems.
I teach programming/coding for young children too. Understanding fundamentals are required for mastery, be it any subject. Therefore I focus on fundamentals. Mutually interacting and screen sharing, beginners will gain knowledge in developing the program and debugging.
As a person I am  honest, committed to any work that I undertake and patient.
I am approachable for a selected topic or specific problems if you think I could help.

My teaching subjects include the following
 
1. Computer Science syllabus of ICSE/ISC/ CBSE/IB /AP CS A (Python,java,C and C++) .
I include algorithm design and problem solving, pseudocode and flowcharts, programming concepts, data structure, arrays, databases.
For AP CS A I work though MCQ and FRQ questions together, so that children get to know the right strategies to approach the problem.
Prepare the children for the board exam in short time, guiding them to gain confidence in programming fundamentals and advanced topics like OOP, Data structure, file handling.
2.programming fundamentals(pseudocode, algorithm, flow chart),
Computer programming languages java, python ( including pandas and numpy modules), C, C#,Julia, Coral, C++, Go and R .
I teach Coral programming and turtle programming for the beginners and the children. They focus on basic programming, simple, easy to understand the structure of the program and coding.
3.Data structure : arrays, queues, stacks, Linked lists, trees (competitive programming)
4.Object oriented design and techniques
5.Digital systems in logic gates, truth table, canonical forms, K-maps, boolean algebra.
7.GCSE Math, computer science and AP Computer Science. Computer programming and Numerical methods(for B Tech,BCA)
(Solution of linear system of equations: Gauss elimination, Gauss-Jordan and Gauss–Seidel methods, Curve fitting: method of least squares, non-linear relationships, Linear correlation, measures of correlation.....)
8. Mathematics for school students
9. I teach Tamil (Reading, writing, speaking)
and spoken Kannada for beginners.

Awesome teacher!!!

Ms. Hemamalini K had tutored me on the basics of data structures and algorithms which, immensely helped with my placements in college. The concepts were taught to me in a very easy to understand manner making my basics in data structures and algorithms strong. Ma'am also took extra care to clear all my doubts regardless of how simple they were and always ensured proper understanding of each topic. Ma'am was also very sincere in teaching and I was always very eager to attend her classes. I would highly recommend everyone to take classes with Ms. Hemamalini K for her great skill in teaching. Will be forever grateful for all the knowledge I have gained. Thank You !
(P.S I have secured a job in a reputed company thanks to her tutoring)

Tamil language tutoring

I have been learning and practicing Tamil with Hemamalini Teacher's husband, Mr. Ramakrishnan. The classes are well structured with graded lessons of good quality. The attention paid to the distinction between formal and informal usage in Tamil is particularly helpful. Also, Mr. Ramakrishnan helps the learner actively raise their level through drills and exercises during class sessions. Having learned several other languages previously, learning Tamil with Mr. Ramakrishnan has been right up there for me in terms of quality and positive experience.

Knowledgeable and empathetic teacher

I took introductory classes in Python (native + numpy) from her before beginning my Masters of Data Science program. She has an excellent approach to break concepts down to simple topics and supported me through the journey. The 2 big things which helped me were that she would always ask good follow-up questions to make sure I understood the concepts well and wouldn’t hesitate to repeat and reinforce things which were discussed earlier. Overall, I was highly benefited by her program and would highly recommend her as a wonderful and empathetic teacher.

Concept made easy through her teaching

My honest review about the teacher is, she is very knowledgeable in terms of subject perspective as well as exam perspective.
She ensures every single class is utilized properly.
I reached her at last moment after school portions are over. She gave confidence and taught the exact requirement and to score high marks.
She taught concept easily and understandable way. Her experience proves it.
I will definitely recommend her to others as well

Amazing teacher

Mrs. Hemamalini has a tremendous amount of experience and lots of patience. She is great with kids, and I highly recommend her as teacher, especially for children. She has the ability to teach in different levels, be it to someone new to programming or to someone with a fair amount of knowledge in it. Its hard to find such a wonderful teacher.
My daughter has greatly benefited from her classes and she was always looking forward to learn more from the teacher.
