Look if you find any difficulty just ask.
He has I think two people to field questions and he may even deal with it before the class.
I know this because he says so at the start
.
Never have I found a lecture so incredibly difficult to grasp.
I expect one needs specific knowledge before you attempt this stuff?
I was very interested in chemistry when I was 11 such that I read everything I could get my hands on my sourse being two cousins each of who were school teachers so I would borrow all their text books so that after a while I could pass Leaving Certificate Chemistry which demonstrates no more than if I decide to learn its not a problem but tell me I must and I am as dumb as a post.
I presume that you have a career to do with Chemistry as it seems to me you would need considerable study before you took on this stuff and further I gather that theses " chemists" are engaged by other chemists to produce products.
I guess I am asking if you can explain more about the context of these lectures.
I got into molecular biology and I would have watched over ten lectures before I started getting a small glimpse of what they were talking about but I feel that I would not be that lucky with these lectures as is seems very heavy going.
