Series Details
About
Hey, welcome to this series about Human Anatomy and Physiology! In this series I want to cover the basics first and then go into following body systems:
The Integumentary System (the skin)✅
The Skeletal System✅
The Muscular System✅
The Nervous System✅
The Cardiovascular System (Heart & blood vessels) ✅
The Respiratory System ✅
The Digestive System ✅
The Lymphatic System (Immunity) ✅
The Endocrine System ✅
The Urinary System ✅
As you can see there's a lot to cover! So it will take a long time to teach all of these. I am going to go into depth for each one of these systems.
Prerequisites: High school level biology completed or another class of similar level.
Also high school level chemistry or another class of similar level is recommended but not needed
* More sessions will be added
Tutor Qualifications
I have taken this course and have been teaching it for a while.

Hey!! My name is Nitya. I’m a rising senior in California. My hobbies are reading manga/manhwa, playing video games, and spending time with family. I like learning new things about anything, especially biology and astronomy-related! Hope to see you around SHW! 💖💫 They ask me why I teach, and I reply, "Where else could I find more splendid company?" - Glennice L. Harmon
