Students who are preparing for the AP Calculus AB exam
All levels
One-on-one and small group (Max. 7 students/class)
Class Introduction
This course is a college-level course that prepares students for the AP exam given in May. Emphasis is placed on the theoretical aspects of the calculus of functions of a single variable. As dictated by the AP Calculus AB outline, the topics include limits, polynomial and transcendental functions, the derivative and its applications, the definite integral and its applications, slope fields, and techniques of integration. Students benefit from spending more time on these topics than would be allotted in most calculus courses taken in college. Students may expect the amount of work in this class to be equivalent to taking a college calculus class.
Outcome
Upon completing the course, students can expect to achieve the following goals:
- Develop a solid comprehension of the key concepts required for AP Calculus AB, encompassing topics such as limits, continuity, differentiation, integration, etc.
- Identify and address any specific areas of weakness that students may have, and provide targeted instruction and support to enhance each student’s understanding and proficiency in AP Calculus AB.
Feedback
Students and their parents will receive brief feedback after each class, regarding the student’s general participation in class. Students will also receive feedback on graded assignments via email.
Schedule
30 group lessons, 2 hours each, 60 hours in total.
