This is a one-hour open ended tutoring session in any area of math, physics, chemistry, or ACT/SAT test prep. 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. Students...

Homework Offered
This is highly dependent on student ability level and the subject area, but generally for non ACT/SAT prep classes there will be 1-2 hours of assigned work at the end of the session and for ACT/SAT it could be up to 4 hours of work (completing a properly timed test and reviewing it is a time consuming process.) 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.4+ hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Grades Offered
Scientific or graphing calculator (required for SAT/ACT, 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
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
There will not be any sensitive or objectionable material covered during my sessions, and although some SAT or ACT reading passages may be political in nature I'll be treating them academically without any inherent bias on my part. Here are the outside resources that may be referenced during our session: Desmos - this is an online graphing calculator, which is often useful for demonstrating concepts. No account is required. Paul's Online Math Notes - a great online resource primarily for short calculus lessons and a big repository of practice problems and examples, no account required. KutaSoftware - a large selection of worksheets with answers provided, for all areas of mathematics from pre-algebra through calculus. You can make an account but it's not necessary to download the worksheets. Ptable - just a simple online periodic table, if you don't have a paper copy. No account. APlusPhysics - a medium sized selection of physics worksheets appropriate for up to honors physics. No account needed. The Physics Classroom - a very large collection of physics problems, mostly conceptual in nature, with no account required.
