High school physics
The year-long physics course — regular or honors — one-to-one and online, with problem-solving taught step by step.
What this covers in detail
Forces and motion
Kinematics, Newton’s laws, momentum, gravitation and circular motion.
Energy
Work, kinetic and potential energy, conservation of energy, power and thermal energy.
Waves and electromagnetism
Wave properties, sound and light, electric forces and fields, circuits and magnetism.
High school physics is usually a student’s first course where algebra is used all the time to describe the real world. Most difficulty is in setting a problem up, not in the algebra itself. These lessons teach that setup, following your school’s course.
What this covers
Setup before algebra
Diagrams, known quantities and the right equation first — where most points are lost.
The math it needs
Algebra, trigonometry and graphs reinforced as the physics calls for them.
A path to AP
A strong regular or honors course is the best preparation for AP Physics 1 or AP Physics C.

Common questions
Does this follow my school’s curriculum?
Yes. Standards and course order vary by state and school; lessons follow your teacher’s units, homework and tests.
Should I take AP Physics instead?
It depends on your math level and workload. The assessment can help decide between regular, honors and AP.
