Series Details

About

This series is intended as a preview for anyone planning on taking AP® Computer Science Principles next year. No prior computing knowledge is expected, but a background in Algebra I/Integrated Math I is expected and needed. We will be going over every major topic assessed on the exam.

This is going to be sort of a bootcamp for the course, intended to serve as a preview for the upcoming topic you will learn in AP® Computer Science Principles.

If you are joining mid-unit, it is very highly recommended to look at the Drive here to catch up: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/2/folders/1A7qtvxpgjqqLDRm89lZn0WRFavJFjyMf
You should really first be looking at the unit we are currently on (Unit 3), since in this course, you do not need to have knowledge of previous units to understand our current one. (For example, you do not need to understand Unit 1 or Unit 2 at all to understand Unit 3.) After that, feel free to take a look at any other units and topics if you would like to prepare more for AP CSP.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please do not miss more than three sessions and message the tutor if you cannot make it!

About the Tutor

I am a high school senior. I have a passion for computer science, astrophysics, and history. I am joining Schoolhouse to be able to share some of my knoweldge with others who need it the most, while at the same time trying to get help in areas I need help in as well. Science education in the U.S. is really dumbed down and slow, so I taught myself some advanced topics for an 11th grader thanks to how accessible all this information is nowadays, especially Khan Academy! I speak English, Spanish (somewhat fluent), and French (somewhat fluent).
