Organic Chemistry Tips?

So I'm done with the first week of Organic Chemistry I and we're still learning the basics like formal charges and starting to get into different bonds like pi bonds and stuff. Any tips so that I can stay on top of my game in the class? Any websites you recommend? Studying tips? Anything? A LOT of people say O-chem is difficult so I just want to make sure I understand everything.

PS: I really don't like reading ahead in the book in this case because I don't get what I'm reading. I need the professor there to teach me it.

    Sounds like your driven, that's the first step

    As for advice, yes the book can be boring and difficult to read at times, but it is very important to stay ahead of the game

    I run an online tutoring business and have a series of (free) organic chemistry tutorial videos that you may find helpful to help you understand the information and see how problems are solved and mechanisms worked through. I also run weekly live review sessions online which is like a 'study group' allowing you to ask questions and participate in answering other student questions to help you learn/understand
