    We had a very positive experience with Alissa as a tutor for our pod of 5th grade boys from January - June 2020. She cared a lot about the boys and worked hard to create meaningful activities for them. The pod experience was invaluable … More for all of our families during a difficult year and we were so grateful to have found this partnership! We also want to appreciate Craig for helping to match us with a tutor on very short notice after we had cycled through a few folks who were not able to see the commitment through. Thanks for sticking with us!

    Dusty was the exact person we needed to help our child finish out the school year. So grateful to him for the way he steadily encouraged her and helped her stay on track and organized. He is flexible, responsive to our needs/schedule as … More a family, and a delight to be with. We are also thankful that Craig at Themba Tutors really "gets it" and partnered us with such a wonderful tutor who was a great fit for our girl.

    My child worked with Gillian D virtually for math enrichment. She is an excellent teacher. She took time to understand my child's specific learning style and provided tools that would be engaging. She was kind and empathetic- really … More made it her goal to connect with my child and build trust and rapport. My child started the school year with confidence and without the typically "brain-drain" that occurs over the summer, thanks to Gillian.

    I am going into my second year as a Themba tutor. I have met so many great individuals while working for this company. Craig and the rest of the Themba team do such an excellent job picking and choosing Themba tutors that suit each client's … More individual needs! I look forward to meeting new tutors and clients in the 2021-2022 school year!

    Our son started in a new high school, 100% remote, and was really struggling with Latin and Physics. I found Themba Tudors online and had an initial call with Craig, who was very knowledgeable, responsive, and found 2 amazing tutors for … More us. Both the Latin and the physics tutors were fantastic, connected with my son really well and helped him go from 'failing' grade to 'honors'! I will for sure continue using (and recommending!) Themba Tutors. Thank you, C, K, and W!

    Giulia Mercuri is a great Italian tutor! She was very responsive and accessible. Giulia put a ton of effort into preparing for each session and really helped our son with test preparation and projects. We are grateful that she was able … More to help, especially since our son did not receive any live teaching during COVID. We are happy that she was referred to us!
  • Avatar Christine Gennetti ★★★★★ a year ago
    As an adult student diagnosed with a learning disability during grad school, I knew I needed help dealing with my Master's program's demanding workload. I was seriously considering dropping out when I was referred to Themba Tutors. … More I was paired up with a wonderful tutor, Julie, who was a total lifesaver. I learned many techniques that I can utilize in the future as I embark on the next phase of my career.
    I can wholeheartedly say after working with Themba for two years that I would not have finished my program without this organization. And I am so thankful I selected them.

    We were introduced to a wonderful tutor: Mcedwyn. He and our son, a freshman in college, worked well together. As a result, our son’s grades significantly improved. The tutor taught our son subject content and various methods to effectively … More study for quizzes and exams. Our son was also taught time management and organization. My son’s experience with the tutor made the first year of college a less intimidating experience.
  • Avatar Jude Eugene ★★★★★ a year ago
    We have been with our tutor, Cailin Schiller, for two years, from 5th - 7th grade. She started as an executive functioning tutor with my daughter. From the start, she demonstrated a depth of expertise and a selective use of techniques skillfully … More adapted to my daughter’s ADHD and Math disability. Cailin made Math accessible and understandable to her in a way that even her teachers had not been able to do. She differentiated reading, writing and math tasks and assignments to tailor them to my daughter’s unique learning differences. Not only did it have an effect on her grades and her work efficiency, but she finally could do her work with less anxiety. Even my daughter’s teachers used Cailin’s guidance to modify their work with her. But most importantly, she became my daughter’s favorite resource. I can’t say how invaluable Cailin has been to my daughter’s progress and well-being. I’d recommend her a million times over. She is a gem.

    Victoria is a superb tutor. She helped my high school age daughter with her writing. Victoria's skills as a tutor, as well as her sense of humor and her engaging personality went a long way with my daughter.

    Themba Tutors provided a leaning specialist that was a perfect fit for my daughter. I told them what we were looking for and they delivered. Our tutor is responsive and flexible and makes it easy for my daughter to reach out to her own … More her own, which gives her an added sense of responsibility over her learning. As a therapist myself, I now regularly recommend Themba to my patients. A much needed and well provided service to the community!!

    The tutors at Themba are fantastic! Caitlyn McNeill helped our son academically, but also with getting organized in every subject, which he so desperately needed. She offered great advice and useful strategies that helped our son become … More a more successful student. We are using Themba tutors again this year for our daughter. We're so happy to have been referred to them!

    Paul Smith at Themba has been an exceptional tutor for my son, both in terms of teaching the subject matter and teaching how best to approach the process of learning math and executing assignments. We feel very fortunate to be working with … More Paul.

    We were very lucky to have found Edwouine Swift, my son's therapist through Themba Tutors. Thomas is 12 years old, and it is extremely difficult to get him to write. Edwouine just works her magic with him, he adores her and is so … More eager to follow her guidance. I have no doubt she will be a positive driving force in his academic future.

What Is AP Biology?

Unlike the mandatory high school biology course, Advanced Placement Biology or AP Biology is the equivalent of a two-semester introductory college biology course.. It is offered by the College Board in the United States to high school students who have successfully completed the prerequisite courses and wish to gain credit for introductory college-level biology courses. A student who enrolls in an AP Biology class is also required to take the AP Biology exam.

An AP Biology class aims to provide students a solid grasp and understanding of the core ideas and foundations necessary for college-level biology. While there are no official prerequisites for AP Biology, students are encouraged to take and complete the recommended high school biology and chemistry courses before moving on to AP Biology. The recommended prerequisites also typically vary from school to school.

 

Here are some helpful lecture videos with hands-on, interactive problem solving for all levels of science for ages 10 and up to master essential skills.

AP BIO 2

What Can Students Expect in AP Biology ?

AP Biology is a more in-depth study on core scientific principles, processes, and theories relating to living organisms and biological systems. Aside from classroom lectures, AP Biology puts importance on scientific experimentation. Students must participate in hands-on laboratory work and investigative projects. As such, AP Biology helps students develop a higher level of critical thinking as they  learn how to properly conduct thorough research and how to sift through information and identify the most significant and relevant data. This way, students gain and build a better and more enduring understanding and knowledge of scientific principles and practices.

 

Some of the most important skills that students are expected to acquire and develop in AP Biology classes include:

  • Data collection and analysis
  • Creating experiments and procedures to test predictions or theories
  • Drawing conclusions after interpreting raw data
  • Using evidence to develop and support scientific claims

 

When taking an AP Biology class, students will be introduced to an expanded curriculum, which includes:

  • Chemistry of Life
  • Cell Structure and Function
  • Cellular Energetics
  • Cell Communication and Cell Cycle
  • Heredity
  • Gene Expression and Regulation
  • Natural Selection
  • Ecology

 

Our private one-on-one AP Biology tutoring service is designed for students enrolled in either AP Biology or IB Biology, who are looking for a rigorous, challenging experience. Students will improve their test-taking skills through practice multiple choice and free response questions. Our AP Biology tutors will also help students develop an individualized study plan that incorporates various strategies. Students will be able to reinforce their understanding of biological concepts through inquiry-based activities such as POGILs, concept maps, and experiments. Our AP Biology tutors will help and encourage students to design their own experiments, analyze data, and formulate conclusions. With Themba Tutors’ AP Biology tutoring, your child will develop all the skills that are necessary to ensure his or her success on the AP Biology exam.
