Course Description
HOW THIS COURSE WORK:
This course, Ace Mechanics in 10 Hours (The Complete Course), covers all the important concepts in mechanics, including video and notes from whiteboard during lectures, and practice problems (with solutions!). I also show every single step in examples and derivations of formula/equations. The course is organized into the following sections:
Motion in a Straight Line
Kinematics in Two Dimensions
Dynamics
Circular Motion and Gravity
Energy and Work
Momentum and Collisions
Rotational Dynamics
CONTENT YOU WILL GET INSIDE EACH SECTION:
Videos: I start each topic by introducing and explaining the concept. I share all my solving-problem techniques using examples. I show a variety of math issue you may encounter in class and make sure you can solve any problem by yourself.
Notes: In this section, you will find my notes that I wrote during lecture. So you can review the notes even when you don't have internet access (but I encourage you to take your own notes while taking the course!).
Extra notes: I provide some extra notes, including formula sheets and some other useful study guidance.
Assignments: After you watch me doing some examples, now it's your turn to solve the problems! Be honest and do the practice problems before you check the solutions! If you pass, great! If not, you can review the videos and notes again or ask for help in the Q&A section.
THINGS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE COURSE:
An instructor who truly cares about your success
Lifetime access to Introduction to Mechanics: Kinematics
Friendly support in the Q&A section
BONUS:
#1: Downloadable lectures so you can watch the videos whenever and wherever you are.
#2: Downloadable lecture notes so you can review the lectures without having a device to watch/listen.
#3: 7 problem sets in total at the end of each section (with solutions!) for you to do more practice.
#4: Step-by-step guide to help you solve problems.
See you inside the course!

Gina Chou
During my undergraduate years, I always looked forward to exams because I was well-prepared and found them rewarding. I know this isn’t the case for everyone, so I'm here to share my knowledge and help make your university journey a bit easier!
A bit about me:
I earned my BSc in Atmospheric Science and Physics, with a minor in Mathematics, from McGill University in 2018. I then completed my MSc in 2019 and my PhD in 2024, both in Physics at the University of Toronto. My research focuses on the impact of wind observations on global predictability, Arctic climate, and weather processes.
Since my second year of undergrad, I’ve gained extensive tutoring experience, working with students at Liberty Tutoring, supporting high school and university students through SUS Peer Tutoring and Saturday Programs, and working with private students both in person and online. I also served as a teaching assistant for math and physics courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels from 2017 to 2024.
I look forward to seeing you in class!
