About

[Feel free to join if you missed past sessions!] Hello fellow learners!  Will you be taking AP Chemistry this school year?  Well, this course will be perfect for you!  By signing up for this course, we will be covering AP Chemistry topics side by side as you learn them in school.  This series will cover the same topics you cover in class, but we will go a little quicker so you can have an understanding of them before going to class!  In each session, I will explain each chemistry topic.  Then, we will work together on practice problems relating to those topics.  

During our weekend sessions, I will try my best to match with your school schedules.  If it doesn't, feel free to reach out to me and I can create a separate session/office hours just to focus on that topic!  By joining this series, I hope that it will be an excellent supplement to your AP Chemistry class, allowing you to succeed in the course and AP exam!


Since AP Chemistry is a very difficult topic, and I am just a junior, you may ask why I can be qualified to teach you.  Well, fear not!  During my time in the class, I got As on all the tests my teacher gave and a 5 on the AP exam, so I can share with you my tips and strategies so you can do the same as well!  I hope to see you all soon!

Session dates and plans most likely will change to adjust to pacing (It will likely slow down rather than speed up because what I have right now is way ahead of schedule than what I learned at school)


Notes:
Who this course is for:
- Motivated and hardworking learners (There will be alot of information, slides will be posted after each session)
- Students taking AP Chemistry this coming school year (I hope that this series will be a great supplement to your course!)


Since there is a lot to cover in AP Chemistry, I may offer resources/problems for you to have which will solidify your understanding of your topic. 

Course load [These won't be mandatory, but are recommended, I'll leave the mandatory work up to your teacher ;p ]:
- Videos may be given to watch
- Practice problems may be given

Overview of what each session will be like:
- Introduce topics covered for the day
- Lecture (explain topics + do practice problems relating to topics)
- Ask questions relating to lecture or any questions you have from you AP Chemistry class

FYI:
AP Chemistry is an extremely difficult topic and I understand that may be difficult to comprehend.  Due to the time limits during the session, I may not be able to answer all questions.  As a result, please reach out to me through the chat feature on schoolhouse.world for questions that I could not answer.
