About

We'll go over basic high school physics principles as outlined in the Khan Academy High School Physics course as well as some AP Physics 1 Material from past exams, etc.

Classes will run as follows: First 15-20 minutes wil be a lesson on what we will cover. Next 60 minutes we will be working on questions that you might see from a high school physics class (like the ones from KA High School Physics), then the next 50 minutes we will work on harder AP Physics 1 questions. You will notice that the questions that we do get progressively harder to build a deep understanding of high school physics.

Office hours are scheduled upon request; normal office hours are scheduled.

Note that I am currently taking the course, so I will mostly be teaching this course as a general high school physics course from the beginning rather than an AP Physics 1 review series.

This session will be very fast-paced as I am trying to cover a lot of material in a very short time.
