If this is in the wrong place, feel free to move it.

A little late, I know, but a lot of people are stressing about finals, so I decided, “Hey, why not help 'em out?” So, if you need help with studying for finals, or want to join the team, this is the place to go!

Application
This is if you want to join the team. I am looking for at least five more people.

Subject area of strength:
Know any good mnemonic devices? :
Are you willing to be a tutor?:

So, this team will be a long running thing. ‘Course summer time isn’t much help, but come the next year, this could be a very helpful tutoring device.

Current Team
President - StarscreamClone
Vice -
kayybee
DJ-stickman
mythbusteranimator
Scratchthatguys

Does not have a Scratch worker.
Subjects in this color have a Scratcher, but need more.

what is a “mnemonic devices”

Little quotes that help you remember something.

Ex. I use this for remembering Sine, Cosine and Tangent:
Soundwave over heats Cakes and heats Tomatoes on alumuerzo (which means lunch, by the way).
(Sine opposite/hypotenuse, Cosine adjacent/hypotonuse, Tangent opposite/adjacent)

Silly, but I remember it!

why not just use the old-fashioned “soh cah toa”

Because people's brains work differently. You use what works best for your brain.

but the human memory can only store about 2.5 petabytes!! save as much as you can

Well try explaining that to my teachers

but i probably don't live near them and i don't have their contact information

-_- haha very funny

Yeah, I know that one, but I prefer the Soundwave one.

Guys, let's try to get back on track, okay? Thanks!

So, anyone want to apply or need help?

I could help if you told me exactly how we would help

Basically, what happens is that Scratchers tell us the subject they are having trouble with, and we work with them to teach them the material. Stuff like that.

But how would we work with them?
Chats?
Your own forum?

hahahaha okay I'll do this

So we give help on this topic? If so, I might help with English, if I wasn't so busy myself

i might do this but helping others is beneath me

I'd like to say several things.

I hope we're not teaching people, but helping people. I don't think anyone has time to teach others entire lesson, but help them with problems they're stuck on.
People are probably going to cram whether we help them or not (if they were going to cram in the first place).
“Physical science” is an extremely general term and is usually used to describe basic science at an elementary level. So… like no computational questions.
Any elementary science is just like memorizing facts so I don't see why anyone would need tutoring for that.
I don't really see how we can help them with finals as they aren't taking the same test that we took so we won't know what's being covered. Maybe you should just call this like “Tutoring help” so we can answer any questions.

I'd be willing to be a tutor (not teacher).
I can help with any math up to trig/precalc, chemistry (one year high school), French (approx two years high school), Chinese (approx four years high school), and music theory.

We are definately not teaching them, this is like general help. Physical Science I mean like basic physics (I'll change that), and I'll put you on the list.

@mythbusteranimator - We help them here.

Oh, OK.

In which case I can do

- 9th/10th grade Physical Science (atomic models)
- Algebra II (polynomials, factoring polynomials, imaginary numbers)
