Hi! I'm a failed Starcraft player and in need of some serious help when it comes to studying. I thought I could skip the so called 'boring life' of the everyday person by becoming a progamer, but I've come to realize at this point I'm simply not talented enough to do such a thing and had already lost my passion for the game anyway. With that being said I found something from when I was a child that fascinated me more than anything, that is space and physics! I've thought about this for a while now and realize that this is something I could do for the rest of my life! It interests me that much.

So it is time to study again! But the problem lies in the fact that my knowledge is very limited due to my time playing starcraft

I need someone that would be gracious enough to try and help me with mathematics, physics and chemistry. I can't get a tutor because I don't have any money and the amount of time I spent playing starcraft instead of studying, has put me very far behind from where I should be.

This is pretty much my last chance at having a life as most of my family are addicts and have been no help to me except a single brother. I skipped alot of school when I was younger from anxiety related illnesses and now I just want to study hard and well.. live. So I am pretty much begging for someone to help me with my lack of knowledge. I could send some money over on paypal. But the amount I can send is very limited due to my financial status. I've been training/studying for 10 hours a day in chemistry, physics and math and need as much help as possible as I hope to pass a 3CD maths and 3AB physics course by year 12, next year if my work can payoff.

I'm 18 and my email is ljd1131@hotmail.com same as my skype I do believe

Thx for reading

I'm 18

LOL, sorry, but you have plenty of time and are still young wtf. If you were in your mid twenties I could understand such a statement but even then you have some chances.

I'm sort of really in dire straits when it comes to money

So I will have to get a job soon...

If you need any help with any of those subjects, I could help you (finishing up a master's in physics with a background in chemical engineering, i have studied a bit of math as well). PM me if interested and I'll send you my skype.

Props to OP at finally realizing that playing games is not feasible for most people...

Playing games can set you behind in life and they you get depressed and play more games in an endless loop.

But you broke out of the loop at age of 18 (quite young). I have friends who did poorly in college and are now unemployed because of too much gaming... so you are not in a bad situation at all

My suggestion is that you learn these subjects yourself without asking the internet for help.
The resources exist, and you do much better when you don't have to rely on people to teach you. It's a nasty cycle that leads to being dependent on others for help. I'll give you a solid place to start: https://www.khanacademy.org/
