I understand preparing for an AP exam can be stressful for many students, and that is where my APHG tutoring program comes in! Each session is designed to provide personalized support and help every student master the course skills and content necessary to find success not only on the exam, but in the course as well. Through guided discussions and readings, as well as tying content to real world examples, students will gain a deeper understanding of the world in which they live in, and, in turn, better understand the main themes present in AP Human Geography. Each week we will review content covered in class for the course, focusing specifically on what your student is struggling to grasp, as well as focus on the skills necessary to find success on the exam.
