AP Physics – Make Sense of Motion, Force, and Energy
Explore the Laws That Govern the Physical World—One Concept at a Time
AP Physics 1 introduces students to the foundational principles of classical mechanics and prepares them for advanced studies in science and engineering. Covering motion, forces, energy, momentum, and more, this college-level course helps students connect mathematical reasoning to the world around them.
At Guru Tutorials, we bring this challenging subject to life with clear explanations, real-world examples, hands-on practice, and individualized support. Whether students are preparing for the AP exam or simply want to understand the “why” behind the laws of nature, our small-group online classes provide a supportive environment to succeed.
Why Take AP Physics 1 with Guru Tutorials?
Concept-Driven, Not Memorization-Based
We emphasize deep understanding and reasoning over formulas. Students learn how and why physics works—not just how to plug into equations.Interactive Learning in Small Groups
Classes are live, discussion-based, and capped at 8–10 students. Students get real-time feedback and support in working through challenging topics.Real-World Applications
From roller coasters and rockets to levers and pendulums, students explore the physics that powers everyday life—and the universe beyond.AP Exam Preparedness
Each topic includes AP-style questions, practice problems, and guidance on using correct notation, units, and explanation strategies—skills essential for scoring high on the exam.AP Physics 1 Units

Kinematics
Motion, displacement, velocity, and acceleration—graphing and interpreting motion.

Forces & Translational Dynamics
Newton’s Laws, free-body diagrams, equilibrium, and motion with applied forces.

Work, Energy & Power
Work-energy theorem, potential/kinetic energy, conservation, and power calculations.

Linear Momentum
Impulse, momentum conservation, and collisions in one and two dimensions.

Torque & Rotational Dynamics
Torque, rotational inertia, angular acceleration, and net torque.

Rotational Energy & Momentum
Energy and momentum in rotating systems, analogies to linear motion.

Oscillations
Simple harmonic motion, spring systems, pendulums, and energy transfers.

Fluids
Pressure, buoyancy, Bernoulli’s principle, and fluid statics/dynamics.

Testimonials
"What I liked most about the course was in general, the math portion of it. Every day we would focus on a different math topic to strengthen our knowledge. I'm not the biggest fan of math, but somehow how I was excited to attend class every Sunday. The lively atmosphere really contributed in me easily grasping these different topics. Overall, the math class was phenomenal and it went over my expectations of what I thought the class was going to provide."
"The math teacher (Rajesh Vaswani) was extremely helpful and kind. He went out of his way to help the students (such as taking extra classes, having longer classes, etc.). He was amazing, I couldn't have asked for anyone better."
"I really enjoyed this course because I had a good teacher who cared to make sure that the students learned the material and I thought the material was in point and well-paced!"
"I really enjoyed this course because in the past, I have really struggled with math. Since this class started in the summer, I was able to learn these topics before they were taught in school. This was very helpful since I was able to better understand these topics by the time the tests came in class. Also, by the time I was going to take the AP Pre Calc AP test, I had a lot of tips and tricks I had written down to solve the questions faster."
"It was engaging and fun. Everyone was kind and very helpful and I felt comfortable asking questions. Even when I was stuck or confused, I was able to receive the clarification and help that I needed. I had a great time learning with this course and really benefited from it."
