Ask questions. The most important thing you can do in this class is ask questions. You often won't understand how something works, but if you ask a question, Ms. Torchia will answer, and she'll keep answering questions as long as you ask.

It's obvious that science is something Ms. Torchia loves, but the ways in which she teaches can be inefficient. She often doesn't explain the topic as well as she could and doesn't do a lot to make sure everyone understands. One of the most helpful things you can do to counter this inconvenience is ask as many questions as it takes for you to fully understand something. Good luck.
