About

This course will go over the first part of mechanics at a fast pace. After taking this course, you will have a good understanding of Kinematics and Forces, preparing you for part 2 of Mechanics. This will provide a good background for those taking Physics 1 next year, or Physics C Mechanics. This course is a starter level course, and no prior Physics is required. Depending on whether or not you guys want to, I can cover the calculus concepts as well!

Recommended knowledge: Algebra 1&2

No prior Physics knowledge required

About the tutor: Hi, I'm Bill, and I've recently taken AP Physics C and AP Physics C EM, which I scored 5s on. I am hoping to spread my knowledge to you guys through this crash course on Mechanics!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please do not miss 2 sessions unexcused. If you need to miss a session, please let me know and I will accommodate. These dates for sessions are not set in stone, I am willing to move around sessions if you guys would like!
