Hello and welcome everyone! This session will cover the basic information on cell biology, including cellular organelles, membrane transport, diffusion, and tonicity. The information covered in this session will align closely with Unit 2 of AP Biology, Cell Structure and Function. This unit focuses on exploring the cell as the basic unit of life, its organelles, cell transport processes, cell metabolism, cellular communication, and more.

Need help with your AP Biology homework? Struggling to understand that elaborate diagram of the Krebs Cycle? You've come to the right place! This series is kind of like office hours; you can come anytime you need help with any topic in AP Biology. I can help you with your homework, explain a concept to you, and answer any questions that you have about the exam. If you are interested in learning the content for AP Biology by unit, I also run an AP Biology tutoring series that meets every week on Friday: https://schoolhouse.world/series/10157 Qualifications: I took AP Biology and scored a 5, and I have been tutoring other students in AP Biology since then.

೭੧(❛▿❛✿)੭೨ Everything you need to know to get an A in your class and a 5 on the exam ೭੧(❛▿❛✿)੭೨ Hi everyone! This series is great for anyone who is planning to take AP Biology next year. AP Biology covers a lot of material and is ranked as one of the hardest AP courses, so getting a head start on the material will definitely help you do well in the class and on the exam. The material covered in this series is based on the AP® Biology Course and Exam Description from College Board: https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/ap-biology-course-and-exam-description.pdf This will be a year-long course covering all 8 units of AP Biology, starting in September and ending in May. The AP Biology exam this year will take place on May 16th, at 12:00 PM. Sessions will take place weekly on Fridays at 7:00 PM EST, and there will be practice AP sessions and office hours sprinkled throughout the week (since I've already reached the maximum number of sessions in this series, I will create separate sessions for these and send the links to register in the group chat). I will also provide optional practice questions/homework to help grasp the concepts for each unit in the series group chat. We will be covering the content for all 8 units of AP Biology: - Unit 1: Chemistry of Life (8%–11% of exam score) - Unit 2: Cell Structure and Function (10%–13% of exam score) - Unit 3: Cellular Energetics (12%–16% of exam score) - Unit 4: Cell Communication and Cell Cycle (10%–15% of exam score) - Unit 5: Heredity (8%-11% of exam score) - Unit 6: Gene Expression and Regulation (12%-16% of exam score) - Unit 7: Natural Selection (13%-20% of exam score) - Unit 8: Ecology (10%-15% of exam score) Note: Although I've listed what we are going to cover in each session in the session descriptions, it's just an estimate on how long I will take for each unit and may change. Below are some resources to help you prepare for the AP Biology exam: - Campbell Biology (textbook): I mainly used this resource to study for the AP Biology exam. There are many editions of this textbook (I personally used the 11th edition), but they all cover the content tested on the AP Biology exam. - Khan Academy: https://www.khanacademy.org/science/ap-biology - Fiveable: https://library.fiveable.me/ap-bio - Amoeba Sisters (YouTube channel): https://www.youtube.com/@AmoebaSisters - Crash Course Biology: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3EED4C1D684D3ADF - Bozeman Science: https://www.bozemanscience.com/ap-biology - Albert.io: https://www.albert.io/ap-biology (note: this site has a lot of great AP Biology practice questions but requires a paid subscription in order to use the resource) How I studied for AP Biology: I learned most of the content covered by reading and taking notes from the Campbell biology textbook. I also learned through class lectures and watching YouTube videos on topics that I was confused about. I reviewed for the AP exam by using the Princeton AP Biology review book and by taking a lot of practice tests. I took this course two years ago, scored a 5 on the AP exam, and have been tutoring other students at my school on AP Biology since then. I also took high school biology three years ago and IB Biology HL (year 2 of IB Biology) last year. Also, if you are unable to make the session times, please let me know! I can't change the times because many other learners have registered, but I'd be more than happy to schedule a makeup session with you. Additionally, if you need any help with biology homework, feel free to send me a chat and I will do my best to help you. Thank you, and I look forward to teaching you!:)

Hi everyone! In this series, we will be learning about five of the major human body systems (nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, immune, and sensory systems). For each system, we will learn about the organs involved, how the system works, pathologies, and other important information. Sessions will mostly take place once a week on Saturdays at 1:00 PM EST, and two sessions are needed to cover all the information for one system (two weeks per system). There will be an office hour session each week, where learners can catch up on the information that they missed, ask questions, or just come to study. Some additional resources: Crash Course for Anatomy & Physiology: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8dPuuaLjXtOAKed_MxxWBNaPno5h3Zs8. I highly recommend watching these videos in addition to my sessions. The animations are really helpful in understanding the body system and these videos are also really fun to watch. OpenStax Online Anatomy & Physiology Textbook: https://openstax.org/details/books/anatomy-and-physiology-2e. This is a free online textbook with in-depth descriptions of the body systems. Video Lectures: https://pulmonary.ucsd.edu/research/labs-centers/west/video-lectures.html. These videos were made for medical school students but are a great resource to learn about the body systems. Thank you for your interest in my series, and I look forward to teaching you!:)

Hi everyone! We will learn about genetics, covering topics such as inheritance, punnet squares, pedigrees, and so on. Each class will start with 30 minutes of a lecture on the concepts and end with practicing genetics questions and going over the answers. This session is great for anyone planning to take AP Biology next year, or would just like to learn more about genetics. A large portion of the AP exam is comprised of genetics problems, and attending this session will help prepare you for the exam:)

I'll go through different laboratory techniques such as gel electrophoresis, protein purification, PCR, and more!

೭੧(❛▿❛✿)੭೨ Everything you need to know to get an A in your class and a 5 on the exam ೭੧(❛▿❛✿)੭೨ Hi everyone! This series is great for anyone who is planning to take AP Calculus AB or BC next year. AP Calculus covers a lot of material and requires a lot of practice to master the skills, so getting a head start on the material will definitely help you do well in the class and on the exam. The material covered in this series is based off of the AP® Calculus AB Course and Exam Description from College Board. AP Calculus AB Course and Exam Description: https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/ap-calculus-ab-and-bc-course-and-exam-description.pdf Classes will be at 6 PM EST every day, and more sessions will be added to the series as we go on. Note that there are optional AP Practice sessions and office hour sessions sprinkled in between at different times. Each session will start with notes (see the blank notes documents provided under each of the session descriptions) and end with practice problems (also linked under each session description). Each session is scheduled to be an hour long, but the time may vary depending on the topic that we cover that day. Notes may take anywhere from 30 - 60 minutes. After notes, students are free to leave the zoom, or they can stay behind to work on the practice problems so they can ask questions as they do the problems. I will be available on the zoom call for about an hour after I finish notes to answer questions on the practice problems. The practice problems are optional but highly recommended. To bring to class: - ✏️ Pencil and eraser - 📱 Calculator (preferably a graphing calculator; you will need one for the AP exam) -📜 Paper or a notebook (to do the practice problems in) - 📝 You can print out the blank notes for each topic if you would like, or just take notes digitally:) Additional resource: Khan academy (https://www.khanacademy.org/math/ap-calculus-ab) is a great resource to supplement your learning for this course. Although I try to cover all the possible applications of concepts in the practice problems, Khan Academy has a lot of problems that you can do if you need more practice. Qualifications: I took AP Calculus AB two years ago and AP Calculus BC last year and scored a 5 on both exams.

We will go through three body systems, the immune system, the nervous system, and the cardiovascular system. Each class period will be around an hour and a half long, with a short break in between. Here is a preview of the slides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Be2JKUoXPmbzAXTIA3UbheZXrfkE3XGRe2Ll_RnXEbk/edit#slide=id.g13ea04279b2_0_172 (immune system). You will have access to all of the slides at the end of the session:) Note: I will create another session in late July to cover the rest of the body systems when I get back from vacation.

We will be learning about all of the major body systems (nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, immune, digestive, urinary, bone & muscle tissues, developmental biology, excretory, and respiratory systems). Learners should have some sort of foundation in biology (ex. taken a biology class). Classes will be an hour and a half long with a 10-15 minute break in between for questions. Thank you for your interest in my series, and I look forward to teaching you!:)
