AP Physics: ELECTRICITY & MAGNETISM

 

Summer Physics Program

AP Physics (Mechanics) and AP Physics (Electricity & Magnetism) is a Review and Test Prep class. It is assumed that the students who enroll are currently taking AP Physics (Mechanics) and AP Physics (E&M). This course is designed to help students achieve solid A in their base schools and enable them to be well prepared for the AP Physics Test.

The AP Physics class will focus on the critical AP Physics test and problem solving in AP Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism. It will review comprehensive knowledge and concepts in the May AP Physics test, which includes two major parts: AP Physics (Mechanics) and AP Physics (E & M).

In class, students will be actively engaged in challenging problem solving, difficult Physics formula learning, and strategic test taking skills. The majority of our former students achieved a perfect score of 5 on the AP test and scores of 700-800 for the SAT Physics Test.

AP Physics Part II covers  AP Physics 1, 2 & C (Electricity & Magnetism). Pre-requisite: students must have taken Part I (Mechanics) and advanced calculus.

AP Physics Instructor Dr. D. Luzader

Dr. D. Luzader is an experienced instructor who holds master’s degrees and a PhD in Physics. She received degrees from Northeastern University, and University of Maryland. Dr. D. has more than 23 years of teaching college-level Physics at a State University in Maryland. She has also conducted Physics research with CERN (European Nuclear Research Center, Geneva, Switzerland), and the University of Maryland. She enjoys teaching and tutoring AP Physics to high school students both during the school year and especially in the summer. She has joined Oakton Academy’s AP Physics teaching team since 2018. She is very excited about teaching the summer AP Physics at Oakton Academy. 

Instructor: Dr. Frank Lu is an experienced teacher with a PhD in Physics & Artificial Intelligence (AI) . He received degrees from Fudan University, University of Maryland, and Duke University. Dr. Lu taught college students at UMBC (MD), and American University (DC). He also tutored and taught students from TJ, Oakton, and Langley High Schools as well as other private schools. His students have received excellent scores in SAT Physics (700 – 800) and AP Physics (5).

Dr. Lu’s unique instructional method and teaching style includes many question and problem solving sessions, sharpening students’ understanding of key concepts, enabling students to apply those concepts to solve real Physics problems in life, and building a solid foundation for the rigorous AP Physics Test.

From 2014 to 2021, Dr. Lu’s AP and SAT Physics students reported their admission to top schools, including Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Columbia, U Chicago, Duke, Georgetown, UPenn, Carnegie Mellon, NYU, UC Berkeley, UIUC, Vanderbilt, UVA, Georgia Tech,  V Tech, and other great colleges. A big congratulation to our seniors!!
