Periodically Nerdy: online chemistry courses
Learning made fun.
Chemistry courses that make the whole table make sense. Three weeks, online, for high school students, taught live on Google Meet by a Chemistry 11 teacher. Learn in a small group, one-on-one, or both.
Every atom in you was made in a star. Here's how they behave.
Courses follow the topic your student is working on right now. These are the areas we cover most.

The product: confidence
Walk into the next test knowing how to solve it.
Hi, I'm the nerd behind it.
I studied for a BA and a BSc, then spent four years teaching in Asia, where I learned to explain hard ideas clearly to all kinds of learners.
Today I teach Chemistry 11, Physics 11 and Advanced Science 10 in Québec. My lessons connect the equations to things students can actually see, and I use enough humour to keep everyone awake through the mole.
Every course is built the same way: clear steps, lots of practice, and real confidence by the end.

More about meQuestions
What do I need for an online session?
A computer or tablet with a camera, a microphone and a stable internet connection. Sessions run on Google Meet, which is free and works in the browser.
Which grades do the courses cover?
High school chemistry, including Chemistry 11. If your course is different, mention it when you book and you'll hear back about whether it's a fit.
How big are the groups?
Between two and six students, so everyone still gets time to ask questions.
What happens after three weeks?
You can book another bundle to keep going, or stop there. Nothing renews automatically.
How do I know it's working?
You'll get progress updates during the course, covering what was worked on and what to practise next.
