AP Biology Help

    Ended Tue, Oct 10, 2023

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.

AP Biology Crash Couse

    Ended Fri, Jan 19, 2024

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!:)

AP Calculus AB Crash Course - Everything You Need to Know!

    Ended Fri, Sep 1, 2023

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.

SAT Mega Review Session

Hey, prospective DSAT takers!

If you’re taking the 3/9 DSAT, this session is a great place to review topics (both R&W and Math) that you’ve had issues with in the past and to ask any and all questions you may have about content, test-taking strategies, and what to expect on test day!

If you have specific topics that you’d like us to review during the session, please let us know in the welcome question. Learner-requested content review will take up roughly the first 30-45 minutes of the session. During the session, learners are encouraged to ask questions via a Google form that will be shared live. Live questions can be about anything, but we can’t promise that we’ll be able to cover content-based questions in-depth if they are not submitted ahead of time.

Hope to see you there!

NOTES:
- Co-hosts are welcome to apply, as the presence of multiple hosts will make it easier to answer questions and provide different perspectives. Co-host requests will be taken until Friday, March 1.
- Co-hosts will be expected to attend a pre-session Slack huddle on Monday, March 4, at 5:30 CDT. (Accommodations can be made for special reasons.)
- Sign-ups after Saturday, March 2, aren't as likely to have their "weakest area/concept" topic prioritized in the session.

Everything You Need to Know about Cellular Respiration

Cellular respiration was one of the hardest topics for me to understand back when I took AP Biology. I remember staring at my textbook for hours trying to comprehend the elaborate diagrams of Glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. In this session, I will explain everything you need to know about cellular respiration for the AP Biology exam, starting with the basics. Qualifications: I scored a 5 on the AP Biology exam and have been tutoring other students at my school in AP Bio since then
