US Grade 6 - 12
Beginner - Intermediate Level
This is a tutoring class based on the work students are assigned for the class they are currently enrolled in. I specialize in the use the models (physical, visual, graphical, mathematical) to aid students in developing a solid understanding of complex physics concepts including: - Kinematics (the study of motion) - Dynamics (forces causing motion) - Energy/work/power - Electromagnetism Students working with me will have access to The Physics Classroom’s web base study aids. This is a fantastic tool for learning and practicing physics concepts.
Learning Goals
Learning goals will be unique to the needs of each student.
