The College Board offers four different AP Physics exams: Physics I, Physics II, Physics C: Mechanics, and Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism. Physics I and Physics C: Mechanics have considerable overlap in terms of content studied, with the difference being that Physics C incorporates Calculus (making it much more in-depth) while Physics I only uses algebra (up to and including Algebra II). Physics II and Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism have a similar relationship. If you are struggling in one or more of these classes, ΄σΟσ΄«Γ½ can help you find an AP Physics tutor who meets your needs.
Here are some of the important concepts you may review during AP Physics tutoring sessions:
- Newtonian Mechanics
- Work, Power, and Energy
- The Mechanics of Sound Waves
- Thermodynamics (including Kinetic Theory)
- Fluid Statics and Dynamics
- Magnetic Fields
- Quantum Physics
Private high school tutoring sessions allow you to concentrate on only what you need to. For example, if you understand magnetism but have a harder time with thermodynamics, your study sessions can focus exclusively on the latter. Classroom instruction is rarely as adaptable to an individual student's needs, making an AP Physics tutor the most efficient way to study. AP Physics tutoring sessions also allow you to customize your learning environment. Any unnecessary distractions (including other students) may be removed. A tutor may design sessions around your unique learning style, and even foster an environment where you are not afraid to ask any questions you may have.
