Series Details
About
physics is often treated as a collection of unrelated facts. the purpose of this course is to explore introductory physics in a way that emphasizes the innate connective nature of physical topics. this course will delve into the content of a university level physics class. calculus knowledge is not required, though it will be used from time to time, so learning calculus along with this course is recommended.
in this course, i hope to
- demonstrate good learning practices and efficient problem solving
- help you learn physics in a structured fashion
- show that solving a ton of problems is HURTFUL to learning a subject (less pain, more gain!)
- emphasize that the solution to a problem is much more significant than its answer
- explain why numbers are detrimental to learning in STEM
- introduce the 4 C's of physics: categories, conditions, comparisons, and connections
a few problems will be provided after every session to confirm your understanding
Tutor Qualifications
i am proficient in university-level physics, and have excelled in AP level physics classes. i also have experience tutoring this subject.

Session 1
Physics
this session will delve into vectors and their operations! we will cover
- vectors vs scalars
- representations of vectors
- vector addition and subtraction
- vector multiplication -> multiplication by a scalar, dot products, and cross products

Session 2
Physics
we will introduce kinematics, the study of motion! for now, we will stick to kinematics in one dimension, and work in 2 & 3 dimensions at a later time.
topics to be covered are:
- displacement, velocity, and acceleration
- motion with constant acceleration
- derivations of the kinematic equations
