This video is the kick start to an entire high school chemistry course that you can follow along with if you home school, need some tutoring help or are just studying for your chemistry class. I've been a chemistry teacher for six years and in that time I've taught more than 700 chemistry students. Yes, chemistry is hard, but that doesn't mean you have to struggle through it. There's no room for tears in chemistry! Through this series, I'll be teaching you the same lessons I'd be teaching in my high school chemistry classroom. In fact, we'll even go down to my kitchen to do some lab activities. The course will have fifteen different units - and I'll present them in order (same as I would in a classroom.) Of course, you can watch these in any order you'd like - but if you're here for the full experience, certainly start here and follow along.
