Series Details

About

This series will go over AP Biology content in a relatively fast pace as a review for the up coming test on May and also provide more advanced knowledge that is not only interesting but also explains many concepts in AP Biology in a more detailed way. Participation in this course requires a current enrollment in AP Biology or a class of equivalent difficulty.

Tutor Qualifications

I took AP Biology one year ago and scored a 5. I am a British Intermediate Biology Olympiad gold medalist.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Come to whichever session you find the topic interesting, though please notify me at least one day in advance when you are not coming. Missing two classes without notification will result in a withdraw.
