About

Are you taking AP Chemistry next year? This series will help you learn the material needed for AP Chemistry! I will only be teaching the topics and maybe a few practice problems during the main sessions, while covering more practice problems during future office hours. The pacing of this series is very fast, with sessions everyday for 2 hours, however, I will extend the time of the sessions / slow down if needed. My Qualifications: - Took AP Chemistry last year and finished with A's in both semester - 5 on AP Chemistry Exam

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Feel free to attend/skip sessions that you think you have an understanding in, but note that the AP Chemistry curriculum does have units that completely build onto those before it.
