This may be a sort solution, try this way using REGEXP

 SELECT * FROM `tutor` 
   WHERE
 subject REGEXP '^(engg maths1|tpde|numerical methods|pqt|random)$' 
 OR Class_I_V REGEXP 'Class_I_V'

See for more info that satisfy your requirements, http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/regexp.html

EDIT Sorry at first i didn't see your database columns, i think you need Full Text Search in this case. see more here http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/fulltext-boolean.html
