I hope to continue in academia to become a professor of psychology, as teaching is among my greatest passions.
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.

I have spent time living in France and England and love to travel. My time abroad has cultivated a love of language and writing and how to use academic tools in order to create opportunities in life beyond the classroom. I am excited about helping students achieve their academic and personal goals. Hobbies: reading, cooking, music, writing, art, books, traveling, photography, travel
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
Score improvement depends on your starting point and how consistently you apply tutoring sessions to practice. Students often see meaningful gains—typically 1-3 points on the 1-5 AP scale—within 8-12 weeks of focused preparation, especially when tutoring targets your specific weak areas like probability concepts, inference procedures, or data interpretation.
The most significant improvements happen when you combine tutoring with regular practice on released AP exams and problem sets between sessions. Your tutor can help you identify which topics are costing you the most points, then create a targeted study plan to address those gaps efficiently.
Many students struggle with distinguishing between different inference methods—knowing when to use a t-test versus a chi-square test, for example—and understanding the underlying concepts rather than just memorizing formulas. The free-response section often trips up students who can do calculations but struggle to interpret results in context or justify their statistical choices.
Pacing is another major challenge. The AP Statistics exam includes 40 multiple-choice questions in 90 minutes plus six free-response questions in 90 minutes, so students need strategies for managing their time and deciding which problems to tackle first. Many students also underestimate how important it is to read questions carefully—misinterpreting what a question asks can lead to selecting the wrong procedure entirely.
An effective AP Statistics tutor should understand both the content deeply and the specific ways the AP exam tests that content. They should be able to explain why you're using a particular statistical method, not just walk you through the steps, and help you avoid common misconceptions like confusing correlation with causation or misinterpreting p-values.
Look for someone who is familiar with the current AP Statistics curriculum and exam format, uses released AP problems during tutoring, and can diagnose exactly where you're losing points. The best tutors adapt their teaching style to how you learn and focus your limited prep time on the topics that will have the biggest impact on your score.
Ideally, start tutoring 3-4 months before the AP exam (late December or early January for a May exam). This gives you time to build understanding of concepts you may have missed during the school year and work through practice problems strategically. If you're starting later or retaking the exam, even 6-8 weeks of focused tutoring can help you target high-impact topics.
During tutoring, plan to study outside sessions too—at least 5-7 hours per week reviewing notes, working practice problems, and taking timed practice tests. Your tutor can guide you on which practice materials to prioritize and help you understand mistakes on practice exams, turning those sessions into learning opportunities rather than just assessment.
Free-response questions reward clear communication and justification of your statistical choices. Many students lose points not because their calculation is wrong, but because they don't explain why they chose a particular test or procedure, don't state their hypotheses, or fail to interpret results in the context of the problem. Practice answering every free-response question by writing out your full reasoning, not just doing the math.
A tutor can review your written responses and show you exactly what the graders expect to see. They can also help you manage the 15 minutes per question that the exam allows—deciding whether to sketch a distribution, write out all steps, or focus on clear interpretation depending on the specific question. Practicing with a tutor's feedback is much more effective than grading yourself.
You'll have a formula sheet during the exam, which is helpful—but you still need to understand what each formula does and when to use it. Many students waste time on the exam searching the formula sheet for the right equation or misapplying formulas because they don't understand the underlying concepts. Knowing your most-used formulas by heart saves valuable time and lets you focus on problem-solving strategy instead.
A good study approach is to memorize the formulas you use most frequently (like those for standard error, confidence intervals, and test statistics) while using the sheet as a reference for less common ones. Your tutor can help you figure out which formulas are worth memorizing based on how often they appear on released exams and which ones tend to trip you up.
Take at least 2-3 full-length, timed practice tests using released AP exams—ideally under exam conditions (90 minutes for multiple choice, 90 minutes for free response). After each test, don't just check your answers. Analyze every problem you missed: Did you choose the wrong procedure? Misread the question? Make a calculation error? Understanding the pattern of your mistakes is far more valuable than just knowing your score.
Your tutor can help you review practice test errors efficiently, focusing your study time on concepts that show up repeatedly in problems you get wrong. They can also help you practice test-taking strategies, like which sections to tackle first or how to manage anxiety during timed practice, so the actual exam feels more familiar.
