I earned a dual bachelor's degree in ecology and contemporary dance performance, while continuing to mentor and assist my peers.

AP Economics Tutoring FAQ
The College Board offers two AP Economics courses: Macroeconomics and Microeconomics. A student may take both in one year, split them between two years, or take one and not the other. At the end of the school year, both courses have special AP exams that may earn a student college credit that they can take with them after graduating high school. Varsity Tutors can help you locate and work with an experienced AP Economics tutor today.
Here are some of the ideas that may be reviewed during AP Economics tutoring sessions:
Measures of Economic Performance (GDP)
How Markets Function
Macroeconomic Theories and Policies
The Law of Supply and Demand
International Economics
Interpreting Economic Data Through Graphs and Charts
AP Economics tutoring sessions may concentrate on any of these areas as needed. For example, a student who excels with the relationship between supply and demand but has a harder time with the "macro" concepts can focus on them during their study sessions. Likewise, if the list of macroeconomic theories proves too dry to remember, a tutor may help you develop a mnemonic device to make memorization easier.
Since the AP Exam is such an important component of the AP course, AP Economics tutoring is likely to place a strong emphasis on it. Both exams are structured in the same way: a multiple-choice section that lasts for an hour and 10 minutes before a free response section that lasts an hour. Your tutor will be familiar with both exams, enabling them to help you decide when you should guess and when you are better off leaving it blank. They can also show you how to eliminate some of the incorrect responses.
Students aren't allowed to write anything during the first ten minutes of the free response section. Your tutor can show you how to outline your thoughts to ensure that you do not forget anything, and even sketch a graph to reference while you write. Practice exams might help you make the most of this time as well so you're extra prepared.
