Homework
4+ hours per week. This is highly dependent on student ability level and the subject area, but generally there will be 1-2 hours of assigned work at the end of the session. If you'd prefer that I don't assign homework I'm happy to not do that, although I don't recommend that for best learning practices, particularly in skill-based areas like mathematics or physics.

Class Experience

US Grade 9 - 12
Beginner - Advanced Level
This is a one-hour open ended tutoring session in any area of high school chemistry: standard, honors, AP, or IB level.  Students can request specific help with a particular topic, preparing for an upcoming test or quiz, reviewing older material, or even getting ahead on what's coming up next in their course.  Although I'm happy to cover new topics from scratch, students are encouraged to be prepared with specific topics that they would like to work on so we can make the best use of our time. 

While I'll cater our discussion to whatever you'd like to discuss during our session, common topics include:
Understanding the periodic table, dimensional analysis and unit conversions, Lewis structures and VSEPR, acids and bases, redox reactions, nuclear chemistry, balancing chemical equations, reaction types, polarity, gas laws, thermodynamics, and optics/quantum theory.

I emphasize frequent examples and regular feedback during my sessions - I firmly believe that an hour of lecture is not a good way to maximize learning.  I'll generally try to answer any questions my students have coming in, teach any new topics that may be requested, and then focus on providing and guiding students through as many examples as needed while emphasizing good note taking strategies and offering feedback.

Students should come prepared with a way to take notes (paper and pencil is preferred) as well as any quizzes, tests, homework sets, or study guides that they may want to work through.  They should also bring an appropriate calculator, if relevant.  Students are also encouraged to independently review and study their materials before we meet; we can make a lot more progress if they have already narrowed down some specific questions or topics that they would like to discuss.

At the conclusion of the session I will typically recommend and assign extra practice to supplement our discussion which should be completed before our next meeting.  Answer keys for individual review will usually be provided, as I believe immediate feedback is essential.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Here is an outside resource that may be used during our session: Ptable - just a simple online periodic table, if you don't have a paper copy. No account.
Supply List
Scientific or graphing calculator (will otherwise depend on the course)
I recommend the Casio fx-115ES Plus (~$20) for a scientific calculator and the TI-84 Plus CE (~$120) for a graphing calculator.
Worksheets and homework will be provided - no additional books are necessary.
A dedicated notebook for our sessions is recommended
