About

{A Parallel to the Original Physics through Problems with different timings}

AP Level Physics.

Each week, we'll solve problems and questions from lovely books, mainly Concepts of Physics by HC Verma. Instead of focusing on a particular class or exam, this 2 year long journey will cover all the main topics of High School Physics, ensuring proficiency in all.

This series aims to improve your general physics understanding through a range of problems, starting with very simple basics and going to beautiful, complex, and interesting problems that get tougher, the kind that will make your foundations & concepts as strong as cement. Join me, and soon you'll see, how challenging yet elegant a problem can be! Learn to get a kick from solving problems, and start loving Physics with me :)

Learners are welcome to join mid series whenever they want, and only attend sessions for topics they feel relevant. This is completely open: join and leave as you wish, we're only trying to make physics fun!

Please note, we will be covering a lot of topics which may or may not be relevant based on your goals, I am trying to make the series comprehensively include all of HS Physics. Feel free to join and leave mid series and attend only sessions that you feel are worth it for you.

Hosted by a Tutor with ambitions of Physics Olympiad and accolades in Junior Science Olympiad.

Note: I expect basic understanding of the topics in question before attending the session so we can jump right in into beautiful problems. If you'd like to attend a series which goes slower, join Physics through Problems (slower), where we follow the same basic idea but devote 2 sessions per topic to give time to build from more basic foundations.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Attendance not at all mandatory - We'll be solving new, independent problems every week, so why not join a session and see?

(I expect many learners to enroll & attend a few classes based on importance & availability, though of course please do attend as many as feasible. This is a very flexible series with no attendance taken)
