Welcome to IB Physics (HL), Year 1!

I hope you're ready for a fun, activity-filled year of physics!  This is a relatively fast-paced course (for example, compared with general physics), but I will do my best to make sure that the class pace is appropriate to ensure that everyone has time to complete assignments and has time to comprehend the information presented!

I am available to help you when you need it--all you have to do is ask.  If you would like help one-on-one outside of the class period, we will set up a time that works for both of us.  If you think of a question while you're at home, just email me, ask the question, and I'll read the email before the next class starts so I can get back to you.  If we work together, anyone CAN do well in Physics!
