Hi, I’m Tania! I got a 5 on my AP Calculus BC exam, and one of the things that helped me the most was going over Khan Academy’s AP Calculus course the previous summer.
That’s why I’m hosting a summer prep series that meets twice a week between June 20th and August 22nd. We will discuss Units 1-5 of AP Calculus AB and BC. Before each session, you will go over Khan Academy’s AP Calculus material. Then, during the session, we will review AP Calculus concepts, do practice problems, and share AP exam tips and tricks! Feel free to bring your own questions as well!
Previous knowledge required:
- Completion of Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry
- Plans to take AP Calculus AB or BC during the upcoming school year
Required materials:
- pen and paper
- ability to join Zoom sessions
- (highly recommended) working microphone
Topics
- Unit 1: Limits and Continuity
- Unit 2: Differentiation: Definition and Fundamental Properties
- Unit 3: Differentiation: Composite, Implicit, and Inverse Functions
- Unit 4: Contextual Applications of Differentiation
- Unit 5: Analytical Applications of Differentiation

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY
During this series, topics will build on each other, so it can be difficult to catch up if you miss too many sessions.
To make room for other students, you will be withdrawn from the series if you have more than 3 unexcused absences in a row.
Please message the tutor(s) if you are unable or do not want to attend a session.
