About

Are you taking AP Chemistry next year? This series will help you learn the material needed for AP Chemistry! I will only be teaching the topics and maybe a few practice problems during the main sessions, while covering more practice problems during future office hours. The pacing of this series is very fast, with sessions everyday for 2 hours, however, I will extend the time of the sessions / slow down if needed.


My Qualifications:
- Took AP Chemistry last year and finished with A's in both semester 
- 5 on AP Chemistry Exam
