What is AP Physics 2?

Advanced Placement, or AP, courses were designed to give high school students a collegiate learning experience before they graduate and move onto college. Taking these classes is a great way for a student to accelerate their academic growth. There are a large number of AP classes available to choose from and the work that your student does in them can potentially earn them college credits. However, students need to pass the final exam that’s associated with their AP course in order to earn those credits.

AP Physics 2: Algebra-Based is a challenging course that builds upon the material that your student learned about in AP Physics 1. While taking this course, your student will spend time learning about thermodynamics, electric circuits, magnetism, and even quantum and nuclear physics. Through this work, your student will get the chance to enhance a number of important academic skills. For example, they'll learn how to interpret models, work with scientific theories, analyze data, evaluate evidence, and much more.

Although taking this course can be very rewarding, it can also be a difficult class to complete without any guidance outside of the classroom. If you think that your student would benefit from having some extra help with their work in this subject area, then consider signing them up to work with AP Physics 2 tutors. Working with a private instructor can help them improve their understanding of the most important subjects that they're learning about in the classroom. Their educator can also spend time helping them improve the academic skills that they need to do well in this class. The easiest way to get your student started with a private instructor is to reach out to us directly.

Can AP Physics 2 tutoring help my student prepare for tests?

One of the most important parts of this course is its final exam, which is administered at the end of the school year. On this test, your student will be tasked with demonstrating their understanding of everything that they learned about in their class. It’s important for your student to do well on the AP Physics 2 final exam because they'll need to pass it in order to earn college credit for the work they did all year. An AP Physics 2 tutor can help your student get more out of the time that they put into preparing for this challenging exam.

The AP Physics 2 exam features questions on a variety of topics. It is administered over a three-hour testing period and is split into two different sections. The first test section features a total of 50 multiple-choice questions and counts for 50% of your student’s overall grade. In this section, they'll need to demonstrate their ability to design experiments, use math to solve science problems, interpret and describe representations and models, and much more.

The second section of the AP Physics 2 final exam contains four free-response questions. Your student will have one hour and thirty minutes to respond to these questions and their responses will count for 50% of their overall grade. In this section, there will be two short answer questions, one qualitative and quantitative translation question, and one experimental design question. To do well here, your student will need to be knowledgeable in a wide variety of algebra and physics topics.

Preparing for a comprehensive exam like this one can be a difficult thing to do on your own. That’s why AP Physics 2 tutors can be such an impactful addition to your student’s test preparation process. Your student’s private instructor can help them learn more about every topic that they'll need to know before taking this test. They can also help them improve the academic skills that are covered on the AP Physics 2 final exam.

There are a number of different ways that your student’s instructor can assist them with the test preparation process. For example, your student’s instructor can help them improve their technical writing ability, which will be assessed in the free-response portion of the test. They can also help them create and review flashcards as your student attempts to familiarize themselves with the terms that are covered on this exam. The specific ways that your student’s instructor works with them can vary based on their learning style and individualized academic needs.

How can AP Physics 2 tutoring supplement the work my student does in class?

Private instruction is an incredibly effective supplement to the work that your student does in the classroom. That’s because it provides benefits that are hard to find in a traditional classroom learning environment. Your student will meet with their instructor in a one-on-one setting, which differs from the classroom where students learn in a group setting. In this way, private instruction can offer your student a level of personalization in their learning process that can be hard to find through other academic opportunities.

We understand that you may be interested in signing your student up to work with a private instructor but unsure as to whether or not they could fit it into their busy schedule. We can help you solve this issue when you reach out to us. When you do, we'll do all that we can to connect your student with an instructor who is able to meet with them at times that fit their needs. This makes it easy for your student to get the AP Physics 2 help that they've been looking for without having to rearrange their schedule to get it. This flexibility is key to what makes private instruction such an accessible learning opportunity.

When you reach out to us, you'll also have the option of connecting your student with learning opportunities that take place online or in-person. Each of these options can provide them with personalized assistance that helps your student unlock more of their potential in this subject area. If you choose online learning for your student, then they'll get to meet with their instructor on our Live Learning Platform. This platform allows your student to get as much out of working with their educator online as they would be able to out of meeting with them in-person. This is because they’ll be able to utilize the platform’s sophisticated academic tools, like integrated video chat and an interactive virtual whiteboard.

One of the other major benefits of online learning is the flexibility that it can add to your student’s schedule. That’s because they’ll be able to meet with their instructor from anywhere that they have a solid internet connection. Your student could participate in their study sessions with their educator while at home, from their school, or anywhere else that they find convenient. This is another factor that makes it even easier to sign your student up for this impactful learning tool.

Whichever option you think is best for your student, they’ll be able to work with their educator in a one-on-one learning environment. This ensures that your student’s needs are always their instructor’s top priority. Their instructor can use this intimate academic setting to create a customized lesson plan for them to follow that is specifically targeted with your student’s growth in mind. This lesson plan can focus on the topics and academic skills that are most important for your student to get assistance with. Your student can then work through each part of their lesson plan at a pace that works best for them and stop to ask for additional guidance whenever they need it.

How can I find a private AP Physics 2 instructor for my student?

AP Physics 2: Algebra-Based is a challenging subject that covers a large number of topics and academic skills.

Recent AP Physics 2 Tutoring Session Notes

Online AP Physics 2 Tutoring review by Wyatt
Today we covered genetics and heredity material that will be on an upcoming exam. The material covered subjects that the student first learned several months before, so we dove into each topic on the review sheet in depth so that he could have a thorough prep session for the exam. Some of the topics he needs to cover more independently are transcription, translation and mitosis. He had an understanding of each topic but needs a little more practice to do extremely well on the exam.

Today we worked on the student's ecology assignment. She has to research the ecology and the human impact on the ocean. We worked on making a food pyramid of the ocean with phytoplankton on the bottom of the pyramid and killer whales at the top of the pyramid. We also talked about how pollution and global warming have negatively impacted the ocean. She didn't struggle with any of the material.

Tonight the student and I began to edit her Lit Review paper on California grunion. She has finished everything except for the conclusion and needs to have that completed before our next session. I was able to read and help her fix mistakes through the first half of the paper. I'm planning on finishing this during our next session so she will be able to have it complete by the end of the week.

Online AP Physics 2 Tutoring review by Jason
We covered bacteria and viruses. I looked over the study guide she made from the book. Also, we discussed some note-taking and studying strategies to try to improve test grades. She seemed to mostly be struggling with committing the information to memory and being able to use her knowledge base to answer questions. Next session we should go over some test-taking strategies.

Online AP Physics 2 Tutoring review by Mike
We first discussed the student's result on the second exam and tried to figure out how he could have performed better. Next, we discussed the upcoming exam on DNA replication and transcription. We decided to save the practice exam for the following week and instead began work on Problem Set #8. We covered concepts related to polymerase chain reaction, primer and experimental design, DNA synthesis and replication, next-generation sequencing, cancer genomics, and mutation repair mechanisms. He indicated that he would look at base pair mutations and repair mechanisms in greater detail before moving on to the material on gene transcription. We agreed to meet after the weekend was through.

Online AP Physics 2 Tutoring review by Meredith
The student and I covered maxima and minima. This is technically a calculus concept but we broke it down into a physics interpretation. He did very well with this. We decided to shift our focus from class work to the physics SAT. We created a plan for how to approach the test and how to break down his study time for the topics. I left him with an assignment to finish the SAT questions in the kinematics section and review the summary pages.
