Why Choose an AP Computer Science Tutor?

AP Computer Science A and AP Computer Science Principles are among the fastest-growing AP courses in the country — but many students struggle without the right support. Common challenges include understanding object-oriented programming in Java, writing Free Response Questions under time pressure, debugging logic errors, and connecting abstract concepts to working code.

A dedicated AP computer science tutor bridges the gap between classroom instruction and real understanding. Unlike generic tutoring platforms that match you with whoever is available, working with an active AP CS teacher means your tutor knows exactly what the College Board expects, what mistakes cost students points on FRQs, and how to build the problem-solving skills that separate 4s and 5s from lower scores.

AP Computer Science A (AP CSA) Tutoring

Expert AP Computer Science A tutoring is available for all four units of the 2025–2026 curriculum: Objects and Methods, Selection and Iteration, Class Creation, and Data Collections. AP CSA focuses on object-oriented programming in Java. Students need to master both multiple-choice questions — reading, tracing, and spotting errors in Java code — and four Free Response Questions that require writing methods, classes, and algorithms from scratch. AP Computer Science A tutoring helps you understand not just what the code does, but why it works, building the conceptual foundation that earns 5s.

AP Computer Science Principles (AP CSP) Tutoring

AP Computer Science Principles tutoring covers all five Big Ideas: Creative Development, Data, Algorithms and Programming, Computing Systems and Networks, and the Impact of Computing. The AP CSP exam includes 70 multiple-choice questions and the Create Performance Task, where students design and submit a working program. AP CSP tutoring helps students develop strong computational thinking, prepare for the exam’s conceptual questions, and produce a polished Create Task that meets every College Board rubric requirement.

AP Cybersecurity Tutoring

AP Cybersecurity is the newest AP Computer Science course, launching in the 2025–2026 school year. As one of the first teachers in the country to teach this course, specialized tutoring is available covering all five units: Introduction to Security, Securing Spaces, Securing Networks, Securing Devices, and Securing Applications and Data.

What Makes This AP CS Tutoring Different

Verified Results You Can Trust

Among students who completed 8 or more tutoring sessions, 92% scored 5s on the AP exam — and 100% scored 4 or higher. Classroom results also significantly outperform national averages: 54.5% of AP CSA students scored 5s versus 25.5% nationally, and 70% of AP CSP students scored 4 or higher versus 29% nationally. These results are not cherry-picked — they reflect a consistent, repeatable approach to teaching AP Computer Science that works.

1,845+ Verified Tutoring Hours

Every hour is tracked and verified through Wyzant with a public profile, 451 reviews, and a 5.0 overall rating. That volume of tutoring experience means there is virtually no AP Computer Science question, misconception, or struggle that has not been encountered and solved. Students from beginners to advanced coders have worked through every corner of the AP CSA and AP CSP curriculum through these sessions.

Active Classroom AP CS Teacher

Unlike retired teachers or career tutors, Tanner Crow currently teaches 36 AP CSA students at Blue Valley North High School in Overland Park, Kansas. Every tutoring session reflects the most current AP curriculum, the latest College Board exam trends, and real-time awareness of what is challenging students right now in 2025–2026. When the curriculum changes, the tutoring changes with it — immediately.
