Frequently asked questions

What is AP tutoring and how can it help me succeed in exams?

Advanced Placement (AP) tutoring is designed to help students master college-level material taught in AP courses and prepare effectively for AP exams. At TutorsPlus, our AP tutors provide personalised instruction that reinforces course content, fills knowledge gaps, and develops critical exam strategies. Whether you’re aiming for a 5 on your AP exam or need help staying on track during the school year, tutoring can significantly improve your understanding and performance.

Which AP subjects do TutorsPlus offer support for?

TutorsPlus offers expert tutoring across a wide range of AP subjects, including AP Calculus AB & BC, AP Physics, AP Chemistry, AP Biology, AP English Language & Literature, AP History, AP Economics, AP Computer Science, and more. Each tutor specialises in their subject and follows the College Board curriculum closely, tailoring lessons to suit your learning style and goals.

Are TutorsPlus AP tutors familiar with the College Board requirements?

Yes, all our AP tutors have a strong understanding of College Board standards and exam formats. Many have experience teaching AP courses at international schools or have previously worked as AP examiners. They guide students through the official scoring rubrics, free-response questions (FRQs), and multiple-choice techniques, helping them meet or exceed exam expectations.

Can AP tutoring help me earn college credit or improve my university application?

Absolutely. Scoring well on AP exams can earn you college credit or advanced placement at many universities in the U.S., Canada, and even in Europe. Our tutors help maximise your scores, which strengthens your academic record and demonstrates your readiness for university-level study – especially important for competitive college admissions.

How are AP tutoring sessions delivered at TutorsPlus?

We offer both online and in-person tutoring, depending on your location and preferences. Online lessons use video conferencing tools with screen sharing, digital whiteboards, and collaborative materials. For students in Geneva, Zurich, Lausanne, or Basel, we also offer in-person lessons at your home or another convenient location.

How is AP tutoring different from regular classroom learning?

Unlike classroom instruction, which often moves at a fixed pace and caters to many students at once, our AP tutoring is fully personalised one to one teaching. Tutors identify your strengths, weaknesses, and specific learning needs, then adapt the lesson plan accordingly. This approach allows students to progress faster, receive immediate feedback, and focus on the areas they find most challenging.

When should I start AP tutoring to get the best results?

It’s best to begin tutoring early in the academic year to build a strong foundation in each subject. However, TutorsPlus also offers intensive revision support closer to exam time, including mock tests, timed practice, and targeted review of weaker topics. Whether you need year-round tutoring or short-term help before AP exams, we can tailor a plan that suits your timeline.

Do you offer support for AP internal assessments or research projects like AP Seminar or AP Research?

Yes. We provide guidance for students enrolled in AP Capstone courses, including AP Seminar and AP Research. Our tutors help students develop effective research questions, structure their essays and presentations, analyse sources critically, and understand the assessment criteria – all while maintaining academic integrity.

How do I know which AP tutor is right for me?

Once you contact TutorsPlus, we’ll discuss your goals, current challenges, subject(s), and availability. Based on this, we’ll match you with an AP tutor who has the right expertise and teaching style. Trial sessions can be arranged to ensure a good fit, and we closely monitor student progress to adjust support as needed.

Can you support students outside Switzerland with AP tutoring?

Yes. TutorsPlus offers online AP tutoring to students anywhere in the world. We work with international students preparing for AP exams from Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and beyond. With flexible scheduling and expert tutors, we make it easy to access high-quality AP support regardless of location or time zone.
