Chemistry Tutoring in Atlanta
Chemistry studies the composition, structure, properties and change of matter. Students explore how matter changes when combined with or exposed to certain factors. Lab classes demonstrate the nature of these interactions through hands on experiments.
The AP Chemistry course provides an interdisciplinary approach to the topic for advanced students who have already completed general chemistry and Algebra II. Students in the class will explore topics including atomic structure, intermolecular forces and bonding, chemical reactions, kinetics, thermodynamics, and equilibrium. Twenty-five percent of a student’s time in AP Chemistry is spent in a laboratory setting making observations and predictions, designing experiments, analyzing data, and constructing arguments.
The Learning Island provides private one-on-one tutoring in all aspects of science. Our tutors work with students and their parents to assess where each student is right now and to develop a customized lesson plan tailored to his or her needs. Students can receive a review of the fundamentals of the scientific method and how scientists make and test predictions. We explain the process of evolution as it applies to biology and simplify chemical reactions in chemistry. We take the mystery out of Newtonian physics and fluid dynamics and provide a review of the math used in physics classes.
Tutors provide students with the tools and vocabulary to understand scientific passages, study better, and make the most productive use of their homework time. We also show students what is expected of them during laboratory classes and can even help them memorize that pesky periodic table of elements. Finally, we provide comprehensive reviews and study sessions for exams. Whether a student is seriously struggling or simply needs a little extra help with a difficult class, we can help them improve and grow to be their best.
