Hello, I’m Victoria Sethunya from the Kingdom of Lesotho. With over 30 years of experience teaching various subjects, I have seen the evolution of education and the challenges that come with it. As the dynamics of the teaching profession continue to change, I have found that teaching online provides a safe, dynamic space where I can share my knowledge with passionate learners.
I truly value education and believe in its power to transform lives. My goal is to spend the rest of my life doing what I love most—teaching. I’m here to help you excel in your learning journey. If you believe that I can make a positive impact on your education, then you’ve come to the right place!
Welcome, and let's embark on this learning adventure together.
One way to create this visualization is by graphing the problem whenever possible. If a graph is possible and I can't construct one, I know I have a problem. How about you?
"In this video, I show how we can 'translate' definitions into formulas. Using speed as an example, I demonstrate how to turn its definition into a practical formula for calculation. By the end of this lecture, you'll be able to tackle similar problems with confidence.
Watch the video and decide whether you agree or disagree. Explain your choice!
How we set up a physics problem determines whether we get the right or wrong answer. If the setup is incorrect, the answer will be too. That’s why I emphasized at the beginning of the course that focusing on what we expect from our answer helps guide us in the right direction
In this video, I demonstrate how to 'track' units to find the quantity we're looking for. Using a conversion from seconds to hours as an example, I show how to follow units step by step to arrive at the correct value. By the end of this lecture you'll be able to tackle similar problems with more confidence.
In this course, students will dive into the fundamental concepts of physics, focusing on the essential skills needed to solve physics problems and develop a deep understanding of the subject. By the end of the course, students will:
