Tutor for AP Environmental Science
We're looking for a tutor for AP Environmental Science. My kid has previously enjoyed working with a knowlegable college student -- professional tutor isn't necessary. Proximity to Oakland is a plus but there don't seem to be many so we'll increase distance if necessary. thanks for advice& recommendations

Has your student started APES yet, or is this for the fall? If he/she hasn't started the course yet, you may not need a tutor, my fairly average kid found it not too difficult. It is basically the equivalent of a 3-unit intro-for-non-majors college course. There are 8 overview chapters of ES (pollution, renewables, etc), each chapter is logical and is covered as an independent topic. Mainly keep up on the reading and make flash cards as you go.

My son took an online year-long course with the PA Homeschoolers (www.pahomeschoolers.com) and he got a 5 on the College Board AP Environmental Science exam. He took the teacher-led course which means his assignments were graded with feedback. Since he got a 5 on the AP exam, this course had really helped him. Students can also take an audit class without grade.
