Beginner Level
This class session is to meet the tutor and discuss what Science-related topic the student wishes to discuss. General Science, Life Science, Physical Science, Biology, and Advanced Biology Topics are welcome. The student is to enroll and then send the specifics they choose to discuss with the tutor 48 hours before the meeting. Many students approach me with topics that can be confusing to understand. One such topic is DNA In Physical Science, another favorite topic is how the periodic table relates to atoms, molecules, and compounds. So many students get lost in learning facts but never understand how they relate and flow during the process. This is where I come in and break it down for them.
