Remember that the math component of physics is easy and that the only hard part is the understanding of the fancy words that they use.

Just try to print his materials on time more. And of course, keep a calm and productive mindset as always.
Class of 2022
There are notes given for each lesson, and you just need to fill in some blanks in them. All concepts are explained clearly and concisely. Problem sets are given before tests to help prepare. They are very similar to the actual tests and serve as a great review. Tests have 2 parts. The online (Brightspace) multiple choice part is tough, and easy to make a silly mistake. The written long answer part is a lot easier.

Mr. Fraser is one of the best teachers I have ever had. He makes class fun and enjoyable, is almost always available for extra help or questions (he took 15 minutes to respond to an email sent at 11 PM) and provides all the resources you need to study. His teaching style makes it very easy to learn, and his class was a breeze. My only concern is that sometimes his tests (especially multiple choice) can be harder than other classes, but he offers many ways to increase your marks.
