Physics: Mechanics
Other

Physics: Mechanics is a course that explores the fundamental principles governing motion and forces in the physical world, the “mechanics” component of the high school physics curriculum. Students will dive into key topics including kinematics, dynamics, work/energy, torque and rotational motion, and waves. Through engaging lessons, real-world examples, and hands-on problem solving, this course builds a strong foundation in classical mechanics, equipping students with the analytical tools to understand and predict how objects behave—from falling apples to spinning wheels and vibrating strings.

 

Accelerated Intro to Chemistry
Other

This course offers students a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental principles of chemistry through a structured, concept-driven approach. Covering essential topics such as atomic structure, periodic trends, chemical bonding, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, states of matter, and basic thermodynamics, the course is designed to build a strong and lasting foundation in the subject. Students will sharpen their problem-solving abilities, strengthen their mathematical reasoning, and explore how core chemical concepts apply to real-world situations. With an emphasis on clarity, critical thinking, and analytical skills, this course also serves as strong preparation for advanced high school programs, including AP and IB Chemistry. No prior chemistry background is required, though comfort with basic algebra is recommended.

Rubik’s Cube beginner course
Other

This course is designed to help beginners build a solid understanding of the Rubik’s Cube’s structure, terminology, and solving techniques. By the end of the course, students will be able to solve the 2x2x2 cube in under 30 seconds, the 3x3x3 cube in under 2.5 minutes, and learn to solve the 4x4x4 and 5x5x5 cubes independently with no time restraints. In addition to practical solving skills, the course enhances students’ logical thinking and spatial reasoning, laying a strong foundation for more advanced cubing in the future.
