Series Details
About
I'll teach a basic run-through of AP Physics 1 before the school year begins. (Units 1-7). There will be practice problems along the way but also I'll provide helpful resources to study with. You don't need any background in physics for this series and I won't expect you to have any.
✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY
Attendance isn't mandatory however units tend to build off each other so missing one may cause some struggle in the future.
