Private home tutoring for you or your child's physics needs is available for the following physics courses in the western/central Suffolk County and northern/central Nassau County regions of Long Island, New York. Meeting in your home on a weekly, biweekly or monthly frequency, rates are very reasonable and cover the following courses/topics;
NYS
Honors/Non-Honors Regents Physics
This is
typically taught in 11th or 12th grade in either public or private schools
and involves only basic algebraic and trigonometric math in addition to many
new and unique concepts that can be difficult to grasp. Using a
variety of demonstrations, activities and problem-solving tips, success in
Regents Physics can be easily achieved.
Advanced Placement
Physics B
This is a
college course also typically taught in 11th or 12th grade in either public
or private schools and also involves only basic algebraic and trigonometric
math, however its fast pace can be daunting, particularly for 11th grade
students who have had no previous physics (or AP) experience (note that The
College Board actually recommends this course as a second-year physics
course, meaning some other basic physics course such as Regents Physics
should be taken as a prerequisite for this course). Success in AP
Physics B is focused entirely on problem-solving and training one to answer
multiple-choice questions quickly without the use of a calculator.
Practice is also given to hone skills with Free Response (open-ended)
questions.
Advanced Placement
Physics C; Electricity & Magnetism
This is a
college course typically taken by 12th grade students in either public or
private schools and not only involves basic algebraic and trigonometric
math, but also encompasses some basic calculus, including simple
differentiation and integration as well as path and surface integrals (such
as seen in Gauss' Law and Ampere's Law). Depending upon the school,
students may also take the Mechanics section of the C course.
Since there is almost always an exam around the corner,
and college admissions departments look favorably on good physics grades (as
it is the cornerstone of all sciences), don't hesitate to assist your child
with the extra help he or she may be in need of in order to achieve success
in physics. I have a long list of tutoring references and with nearly
20 years of high school and college physics teaching experience to help your
child (NYS certified in Physics). Please do not hesitate to contact me via the email link above
in order to make arrangements for private tutoring. You will be quite
satisfied and happy that you did!
