About AP History & AP History Tutoring

AP History refers to Advanced Placement History courses and examinations offered by the College Board in the United States that allow high school students to earn college credit and prepare for higher education by engaging in college-level studies. This rigorous coursework is designed to provide students with a deep understanding of historical events, forces, and trends, as well as to develop critical thinking, analytical, and writing skills.

AP History encompasses several different courses, each focusing on specific regions, time periods, or themes. The types of AP History courses commonly include AP United States History (APUSH), which covers history from the pre-Columbian era to the present; AP World History: Modern, focusing on global patterns and events from 1200 CE to the present; and AP European History, which addresses European history from the Renaissance to modern day. Additionally, AP Art History discusses the history of art from various cultures, time periods, and mediums.

These various AP History courses are related through their emphasis on historical thinking skills and the assessment of primary and secondary sources. They all aim to explore causes and consequences of events, compare different historical developments, and understand change and continuity over time. They often interconnect through themes such as conflict, social structures, or cultural developments, allowing students to develop comparative insights across different courses.

When tutoring someone who struggles with AP History, the best strategy includes a combination of personalized content review, skill development, and practice with past AP exam questions. This could involve creating tailored study plans that focus on the student's specific weaknesses, using a variety of learning tools such as flashcards, timelines, and mind maps to reinforce content knowledge, and improving essay writing skills through structured practice, feedback, and revision. It is essential to build the student's confidence in their ability to analyze primary sources, make connections between historical themes, and formulate coherent arguments.

The most common concepts in AP History courses include themes such as political structures and revolutions, social and cultural change, national and global identity formation, and economic systems and their transformations. The most difficult concepts typically involve mastering the skill of synthesizing complex historical material, effectively utilizing historical evidence in essays, and developing the ability to evaluate the significance and reliability of different sources. These skills require time and practice to develop, so patience and continual reinforcement are key to successful tutoring.
