About

Hey everyone! I'm excited to invite you to my seven-day Electricity and Magnetism course (everyone interested can join, not just AP Physics C people). I’m a student who self-studied AP Physics C and aced the exam, and I’ve had a knack for physics since junior high. Analyzing complex physics situations and relating them to real life has always been a thrill for me, and now I want to share that excitement with you.
﻿
Here's what we'll cover over the seven days (it's ultra flexible and can be adjusted according to your needs):
1. Electrostatics: Understanding electric charges and forces.
2. Gauss's Law: Applying this key principle to electric fields.
3. Capacitors: Exploring how these components store energy.
4. Circuit Analysis: Breaking down complex electrical circuits.
5. Magnetic Fields: Diving into the fascinating world of magnetism.
6. Electromagnetics: Combining electricity and magnetism in exciting ways.
7. Recap, Exercise, and Q&A: Reviewing everything, practicing, and answering your questions.
﻿
Of course, if you have any physics questions related to E&M, bring it onto the table, and I'd be more than happy to have a discussion together.
I know that electricity and magnetism can be less intuitive than mechanics, and it’s normal to struggle. But through our highly interactive sessions and the benefits of a small class size, we’ll tackle these topics together and make them more approachable.
I’m really looking forward to working with you and sharing the pleasures of physics. Let’s dive into the world of electricity and magnetism and have some fun learning together!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

While I recommend following each lesson in sequence to get the most out of the course, there's no problem if you need to drop in or out. Each session builds on the previous one, but you're welcome to join at any point and catch up as you go. Let's make learning fun and flexible!

About the Tutor

I'm a high school senior with a passion for math and science, seeing learning as an exploration filled with curiosity and discovery. I believe in active learning, akin to a wanderlust journey. Although I've never taken AP courses, by self-studying, I've got 5s in AP Calc BC, Stat, Physics C, Chem, Biology, and CS using online resources. Now, I'm eager to help others embark on this self-guided learning adventure.
