Advanced Physics Programs (Online + Lexington MA In-Person)

These programs are designed for students who want a deep and rigorous understanding of physics, not only for AP exams, but also for future study in STEM fields, physics competitions, and admission to highly selective universities.

Program Schedule Overview

Program Format Summer Schedule School-Year Schedule
Foundations of Physics Online + Lexington Tue / Thu 9:30 – 11:00 Mon 7:00 – 8:30 PM
AP Physics Track Online + Lexington Tue / Thu 2:00 – 4:00 Tue 7:00 – 9:00 PM
Competition Track (F=ma / USAPhO) Online + Lexington Mon / Wed / Fri 9:30 – 11:30 Tue 7:00 – 9:00 PM

1. Foundations of Physics

For students entering Grades 7–8.

This course builds the physical intuition and mathematical modeling skills required for future AP Physics and competition-level physics.

Students learn to think in terms of systems, forces, energy, and models rather than memorizing formulas.

2. AP Physics Track

For students entering Grades 9–12.

Covers AP Physics 1 and prepares students for AP Physics C.

The goal is not only a score of 5, but a level of understanding sufficient for college-level physics and engineering.

3. Competition Track (F=ma / USAPhO)

For students interested in physics competitions.

Topics include advanced mechanics, problem solving, and mathematical methods used in F=ma and USAPhO.

Students typically enter this track after completing AP Physics 1.

Teaching Philosophy

Student Outcomes

Many students started with no prior physics background.

With consistent work, students can progress from AP Physics 1 to F=ma and AP Physics C within one year.
