    Course overview

    What Is AP Physics 1?

    AP Physics 1 is a full-year, algebra-based introductory college-level physics course covering Newtonian mechanics, simple harmonic motion, waves, sound, and rotational motion. It is one of the most popular AP science exams and emphasizes deep conceptual understanding alongside quantitative problem-solving. Scoring a 3 or higher can earn college credit at thousands of universities.

    Who is it for?
    Students in grades 10–12 taking AP Physics 1 for the first time, or students who want to self-study for the May exam. No prior physics required — just comfort with algebra.
    How is it taught?
    Live 1-to-1 online classes with a verified Physics mentor. Your first session is a free trial that maps your level, then classes follow a personal plan. From $12/hour.

    How AP Physics 1 mentoring works

    1. Step 1

      Free trial & level check

      Your first 1-to-1 session is free. A Physics mentor works through AP Physics 1 problems with you to find exactly where marks are being lost.

    2. Step 2

      Your personal plan

      We write a plan around those gaps, starting with Kinematics, Dynamics, Circular Motion and Gravitation, paced to your exam date.

    3. Step 3

      Live 1-to-1 classes

      Weekly online sessions with the same matched mentor, with practice set between lessons and every mistake reviewed.

    4. Step 4

      Progress updates

      Parents get regular updates on accuracy, pace and readiness. If the mentor fit isn't right, we rematch at no cost.
