Sharan
AP Statistics Tutor • +30 Subjects
I am a rising sophomore at Cornell University, studying Human Biology, Health and Society. I am on the premed track and am pursuing a minor in South Asian Studies. I was born in India and grew up in Singapore and Buffalo, NY, where I currently live. This past semester, I tutored middle and high school students in math, biology, and chemistry in Ithaca. I also particularly enjoy tutoring for standardized tests such as the ACT, as I feel it is where students are able to make a lot of progress quickly, and it also tends to be the most rewarding for both the students and for me! As someone who loves making organized and detailed plans, I believe having a clear set of goals for one's future is the key to success, and this can be applied to anything, from a single test to one's entire career. I would love to help my students with setting goals and making plans in their high school and/or college careers, in addition to tutoring a specific subject! In college, I am most involved with Cornell's Hindu Student Council and SPICMACAY, an Indian classical music and dance organization. Outside of academia, I sing South Indian classical music and play many different genres of the piano.

Ankit
AP Statistics Tutor • +48 Subjects
I am Ankit Jajoo. I am enrolled in Duke University Class of 2022 studying neuroscience and computer science. STEM is my number one passion, while history is my number one interest. Humanities and STEM not only coexist, but work together often in life. While STEM provides the foundation for the future, humanities contributes to how it is used to advance humanity as a whole. I love biology, chemistry, and computers. It is so cool to see how all these tiny minute parts of the world interact to create you, me, and everything we touch. On the other hand, history is cool to see how societies interacted to create the present world. The past is never separate from us, but always influencing everything from the various countries to cities to the tiny villages all over the world. The world is a combination of all of this and it is my passion to understand the world. Other than just about education and information, I love teaching other people about stuff. I enjoy teaching all my friends some stuff, in return they teach me other stuff. Contrary to popular opinion, teaching is a two way street. I've learned a tremendous amount from students and I hope they learned a similar amount from me. Tutoring students in a field I enjoy such as STEM or history is a dream come true.

Emerson
AP Statistics Tutor • +57 Subjects
I am an undergraduate student at the University of Chicago, working towards a pre-med double major in Psychology and Biology (with a specialization in Neuroscience). Beginning in my early teens, I began working and volunteering as a tutor in a variety of environments: I began as a volunteer at a summer program for underprivileged children at the Learning and Tutoring Center of East Austin, and since I have worked as a private elementary school tutor, a private SAT-prep tutor, and a preschool tutor for the Neighborhood Schools Program in South Side Chicago. I have taken, and succeeded in, a broad range of Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) classes, and am familiar with the latest formats, question varieties, and scoring guidelines of these standardized tests, along with the SAT. My teaching philosophy is to go beyond "teaching to the test". Although test-taking skills are crucial for any assessment, I believe the most valuable thing a tutor can do is to enhance and help develop conceptual understanding in our clients. I believe that once a student understands something at the conceptual level, he or she will be much better prepared for the topic, not only in the specific test we are preparing for, but anywhere else it may come up. Memorizing words or equations might help somebody in the short term, but understanding why that word means what it means, or what an equation is actually depicting is worth the extra effort. Besides test-prep I think I can be a great help in writing and editing, as I have experience in everything from short, timed essays such as the SAT essay, to college essays, to research papers such as the IB Extended Essay. I am fully fluent in Spanish for anyone who wishes to communicate in or practice the language.

Carter
AP Statistics Tutor • +38 Subjects
I am graduate of Brown University, where I received a degree in Economics and studied topics ranging from Computer Science and Applied Math to Literary Arts and Philosophy. I even helped create a class during my senior year, working together with other students to write a syllabus, gather reading materials, schedule guest speakers, and ultimately, present the results to an academic dean for course credit. After graduation, I moved to Hong Kong, where I worked at a a summer program at the University of Hong Kong, in partnership with the Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth, as a Teaching Assistant in a Game Theory class for advanced middle school students. After the program ended, I traveled around Asia, visiting places in Malaysia and Vietnam before eventually returning to the American South, where, as a native North Carolinian, I feel at home. I usually prefer tutoring in subjects involving math and social sciences but I am very flexible. Outside of education, I love playing guitar and piano, and I have released music both as a solo artist and as part of a band. I also like to play disc golf and lacrosse and enjoy participating in fantasy football.

Frequently Asked Questions
Students typically find probability distributions, hypothesis testing, and inference the most challenging units. Many struggle with understanding when to use z-tests versus t-tests, interpreting p-values correctly, and distinguishing between Type I and Type II errors. Additionally, the transition from descriptive statistics to inferential statistics trips up many students because it requires a conceptual shift—moving from describing data you have to making conclusions about populations you don't have complete information about. Tutors with AP Statistics expertise focus heavily on these concepts with targeted practice and clear conceptual explanations rather than just formula memorization.
The AP Statistics exam has 40 multiple-choice questions (90 minutes) and 6 free-response questions including one investigative task (90 minutes), requiring different strategies for each section. On the multiple-choice portion, time management is critical—you have roughly 2 minutes per question, so identifying when to skip and return to harder problems is essential. Free-response questions require you to show your reasoning, define variables, and justify conclusions, which means partial credit is possible even if your final answer isn't perfect. A tutor can help you practice both sections under timed conditions and teach you how to structure responses that earn maximum points, particularly for the investigative task which tests your ability to design and critique studies.
Calculator proficiency is crucial since the AP Statistics exam allows graphing calculators for the entire test, and many calculations (normal probabilities, t-tests, confidence intervals, regression) are much faster with a calculator's statistical functions. However, you must understand what the calculator is computing—blindly plugging numbers in without knowing whether to use 1-PropZTest or 2-PropZTest will lead to wrong answers. Tutors emphasize learning your calculator's specific functions (TI-84 is most common), practicing calculations under timed conditions, and always being able to explain the logic behind which test or procedure you're using, not just which button you pressed.
Score improvement depends on your starting point and consistency. Students who begin tutoring with weak conceptual foundations typically see larger gains (5-7 points on the 1-5 scale) when they work through systematic review of units like probability and inference. Students already scoring 3-4 often improve to 4-5 by refining their free-response writing, avoiding careless errors on multiple choice, and mastering the nuances of hypothesis testing interpretation. Realistic improvement requires regular practice with released AP exams, targeted review of weak topics, and time between sessions for independent problem-solving—tutors guide the strategy, but you do the work.
Starting 3-4 months before the exam allows time to work through all major units systematically and build conceptual understanding rather than cramming formulas. If you're starting closer to the exam (6-8 weeks out), tutoring should focus on your weakest topics and full-length practice test review. Some students benefit from ongoing tutoring throughout the year to stay current with coursework, while others use tutoring strategically during the units they find hardest. A tutor can assess your current level and help you create a realistic study plan based on when you're taking the exam and which topics need the most attention.
The inference unit is abstract—students must understand that a 95% confidence interval doesn't mean there's a 95% probability the true parameter is in that interval (a common misconception), and that p-values measure evidence against the null hypothesis, not the probability the null is true. These conceptual errors persist because students memorize procedures without grasping the underlying logic. Expert tutors use simulations, visual explanations, and repeated practice with varied contexts to build genuine understanding, then help you interpret confidence intervals and p-values correctly on both multiple-choice and free-response questions where interpretation is explicitly tested.
Graders award points for: clearly defining variables and parameters, stating the correct procedure or test by name, showing calculations or reasoning, and providing conclusions in context of the problem. Many students lose points by stating conclusions like "reject the null hypothesis" without explaining what that means in the actual scenario—graders want to see that you understand the practical significance, not just the statistical result. The investigative task also rewards you for critiquing study design and identifying limitations. Tutors teach you to structure free-response answers using a consistent format (like State-Plan-Do-Conclude) that ensures you hit all the points graders are looking for.
Full-length, timed practice tests should be a regular part of your study plan starting 6-8 weeks before the exam—they reveal which topics you need to review and help you build stamina and pacing strategy. After completing a practice test, spend time analyzing every wrong answer to understand whether you made a conceptual error, misread the question, or ran out of time. A tutor can review your practice tests with you, identify patterns in your mistakes (e.g., consistently misinterpreting confidence interval language, or rushing through free-response), and target tutoring sessions to address those specific weaknesses rather than re-teaching topics you already understand.
