Professor Summer Ebs combines her education and teaching experience to create a Physical Science course geared towards middle school, but which is also appropriate for high school students. In the Physical Science course, Professor Ebs guides students through Chemistry and Physics lessons focusing on important concepts and diagrams, before finishing with many extra examples. The course covers subjects such as Heat, the Periodic Table, Chemical Reactions, Motion, and Forces. Professor Summer Ebs earned her Master's Degree in Science Education and has been teaching Physical Science for over 10 years.
