About

Welcome! In this series, we will go over all the units in Khan Academy's High School Biology Course (NOT AP/IB). I will go over content in each session, and we will do Khan Academy practice problems. I intend on making sessions interactive and engaging. I hope to be able to help you learn about biology! :)🧪🔬

❗🕕 Sessions are planned to be on Saturdays at 6pm EST. There is no set end date yet. Sessions will be added as time goes on.

🐢Sessions are pretty slow-paced. The sessions are slow paced because I want to make sure each learner knows the content well. 💡


The units we will go over include:
1. Ecology and natural systems
2. From cells to organisms
3. The cell cycle and differentiation
4. Energy and matter in biological systems
5. Gene expression and regulation
6. Inheritance and variation of traits
7. Mechanisms of evolution
8. Common ancestry and phylogeny

There is unit 9 as well but I won't be going over that in my series.

Sessions

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Missing three consecutive sessions in a row will result in withdrawal.

If you register and don't attend, it may not be fair to those who want to join and commit to the series. However, I understand if you can't attend a session due to an event, getting sick, etc.

If 2 consecutive sessions pass with no learners in them, I will have to cancel the series.
