AP Chemistry can feel overwhelming- but it doesn't have to be! In this class, let an experienced tutor and former AP Chemistry teacher guide you through the steps you need to take for success. Each week, we'll tackle different AP Chem exam problems- I'll show you how to figure out what the problem is asking, what skills to use, and how to maximize your score. I will not be using slides for this, but instead use an iPad whiteboard to work through problems. This makes class more like an in-person class with an instructor and a white board. A pdf of the notes from that night will be sent after the class session is over. This class is perfect for anyone taking AP Chemistry or an advanced or honors chemistry class who wants to prepare for the AP Chemistry exam in May. If you want to review with friends and you're interested in a private section of this for 3 or more people, please contact me for availability. Schedule of Topics: Each week we will do a selection of problems (different problems each week) from various publicly available AP Chemistry previous exam problems (both FRQ and MC) discussing strategies and how to maximize your score. Keep in mind that the focus for each week will be the listed topic but that other topics may come into play as well since many of the FRQ problems draw from multiple units in the AP Chem curriculum. Week of 3/18: Intermolecular Forces and Properties Week of 3/25: Thermodynamics Week of 4/1: Kinetics Week of 4/8: Equilibrium Week of 4/15: Atomic Structure and Properties Week of 4/22: Acids and Bases Week of 4/29: Additional Aspects of Equilibrium and Thermodynamics

In this course, I utilize the College Board AP Chemistry syllabus (https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/pdf/ap-chemistry-sample-syllabus-1.pdf) to guide topics as well as Chemistry: The Central Science (Brown-LeMay) and Chemistry (Zumdahl) which are both commonly used textbooks for AP Chemistry and college chemistry courses.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Pennsylvania Teaching Certificate in Science
I am a certified chemistry teacher (Pennsylvania, grades 7-12) with over two decades of experience tutoring chemistry as well as teaching in the high school and college classroom. I taught AP Chemistry for 7 years and continue to do professional development to stay current on current course requirements. I have worked with a lot of different types of learners at various stages of interest and motivation- from high school students simply taking the class as a requirement to college freshmen chemistry majors passionate about the course with never-ending questions. I can tailor my teaching style to fit the learner, and I do what I can to make it approachable by anyone.
