Kivato Physics Tutoring Austin is dedicated to leveling the playing field.
“Money should not determine who receives a quality education.”
Are you struggling with physics? Is it challenging to understand the concepts taught in the classroom? The tutors at Kivato Physics Tutoring Austin can help! Whether you are grappling with any physics in class or need help preparing for the AP Physics Exams, Kivato tutors can create an individualized plan to help you succeed.
Having a personalized plan for each student allows them to improve their overall performance and confidence in physics. Kivato’s Austin Physics tutors first give a baseline test to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the students allowing them to create a plan to address their needs.
These educational strategies go beyond a simple curriculum or just homework help, and they allow every student to have a better framework in which they can succeed in their studies. Beyond that, Kivato Physics Tutoring Austin provides students with qualified tutors who have mastered the material themselves. We can assist any student through rigorous topics, homework, and challenging problems for their physics class.
Who are the Kivato Austin Physics Tutors?
All Kivato Austin Physics Tutors meet at a minimum the following criteria:
- Tutor has 1 year of experience tutoring AND
- Is a current college student or has a higher level of education
The Kivato Physics Tutoring Austin educators are fully qualified and can assist every student in all physics topics. We are able to match every student with a tutor who is knowledgeable and can help answer every Physics question your student has.
In Physics, we see that a hands-on approach is important for students to really grasp the concepts. Therefore, at Kivato, we always look to teach students using an interactive approach. Kivato Physics Tutoring Austin will go through demonstrations, simulations, and perform experiments to help show the students how these physics concepts work in real life.
Finally, every session with our Austin physics tutors includes our tutors going through test-taking strategies and tips. These strategies cover ways to simplify complicated problems and avoid calculation mistakes. This will allow your student to be better prepared for the AP Physics exams.
AP Physics 1&2 and AP Physics C
The AP Physics Exam has undergone some major changes, but it remains an intimidating and difficult test. Because of the surplus of physics material, the College Board has split up the AP Physics curriculum into 2 different tests.
In 2014, the College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Exams changed the Physics B exam to two separate tests, the AP Physics 1 and AP Physics 2 exams.
The AP Physics 1 exam covers the following topics:
- Newtonian Mechanics
- Rotational Mechanics
- Introduction to Electricity
The AP Physics 2 exam covers the following topics:
- Thermodynamics
- Fluid mechanics
- Optics
- Electricity and magnetism
- Modern physics
The AP Physics C exam breaks the material into two exams as well, AP Physics C: Mechanics and AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism. Therefore, AP Physics 1 roughly equals AP Physics C: Mechanics and AP Physics 2 is approximately equivalent to AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism.
These classes are some of the toughest students take, but do not give up! Do not get upset or discouraged if you are struggling with physics material. Asking for help is a very important part of growing. Our Kivato tutors understand the level of rigor in these Physics classes as they’ve gone through it themselves. They are there to help you succeed.
