About

Hello everyone!  Are you taking AP Chemistry this school year? If so, this series will be a great match for you!  

In each session, we will get an overview of the unit. We will begin with easier practice problems to gain a basic understanding of the topics. Then we will progressively move our way toward more challenging ones to solidify that understanding.

AP Chemistry is a daunting course that may be difficult to understand. If you have any questions, please do not be afraid to ask! I was once in your shoes as a chemistry student and completely understand how you feel. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me, and we can schedule office hours in your free time!

Note:
Ideally, I would have started this series at the beginning of the school year, but I was quite busy in the beginning. Instead, it will start a few weeks before midterms.  Doing so will allows us quickly cover the beginning units, as you review for your midterms!  Afterwards, in second semester, we will slow down and move at a more ideal pace for the later topics.

Qualifications/About me:

- I am a senior in high school. Hopefully I won't be too intimidating like a chemistry teacher ;D

- I took AP Chemistry in my sophomore year and earned a 5 on the exam and an A in the class

- I have tutored AP Chemistry for over a year on schoolhouse.world (throughout junior year and senior summer).  Rest assured!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please try your best to attend all sessions. Attendance is not mandatory, but it may be difficult to catch up if you miss a session.

If you do miss a session, feel free to reach out to me, and I can schedule a make-up session/office hours!
