And when it comes to standardized testing, knowing the types of trick questions they ask and using effective test-taking strategies is essential for a good score. When I tutor, my goal is to incorporate all these ideas to help you succeed. A major pitfall I address in my teaching is the tendency to memorize content instead of gaining a deep understanding. Oftentimes, students memorize the problems...

AP Pre-Calculus Tutoring FAQ
Pre-AP Pre-Calculus does not have an AP exam at the end of the course like AP Statistics or AP Calculus, but it is a class designed by The College Board to prepare students for college-level coursework. If you or your child are having a hard time in this intense class, Varsity Tutors can help you find an experienced Pre-AP PreCalculus tutor who can help you get back on track.
Here are some of the core concepts you may review during Pre-AP Pre-Calculus tutoring sessions:
Linear and Quadratic Functions
Exponential Functions
Logarithmic Expressions
Trigonometry
Polar Coordinates and Vectors
Statistics and Probability
An Introduction To Limits
Private high school tutoring sessions can allow you to focus on anything above, on an as-needed basis. For example, a student who finds linear expressions easy may not need to review them at all. If that same student struggles with logarithms, their tutor can review them instead to make the most out of time spent studying.
Pre-AP Pre-Calc tutoring sessions also provide the perfect learning environment in which to master the graphing calculator. The course is designed around using it for subjects such as trig and logarithms, but many students find it intimidating. Information must also be inputted perfectly to avoid the dreaded "syntax error" that forces a student to start over again. A Pre-AP Pre-Calculus tutor can demonstrate how to use the machine and then supply an endless amount of practice problems until their pupil is comfortable with it. If you make a mistake, your tutor can show you where you went wrong so that you don't have to guess. That takes a lot of frustration out of the learning process!
Private Pre-AP PreCalculus tutoring is a great way to establish a personal relationship with your tutor as well. Once your instructor knows who you are, they can design study sessions based on your needs, goals, and learning style. They can also encourage you to ask any questions you may have, allowing you to seek help.
