2010 年,蘇老師參加李安電影《少年 Pi 的奇幻漂流》拍攝團隊之「知名演員經濟家教」甄選,讓我們意識到,一般學校與補教體系在教學模式上各有極限,許多小眾自學者雖然有進階需求,卻難以獲得合適的協助。2014 年,蘇老師正式成立家教團隊,服務範圍遍及全球,對象涵蓋美國學校學生、醫師、高階主管及補教名師等。 2017年臺灣知名資優生獲美國NYU破格錄取,成為NYU創校以來最年輕學生之一。該同學那年雖錄取NYU,但因私人考量暫緩入學,家教團隊老師有幸參與協助,幫助學生能在臺灣用較低費用,修習AP (Advanced Placement,大學先修課),隔年入校直接抵超過30學分。
2018年APcore Global Education成立,英文簡稱APcore,中文名稱為艾彼股份有限公司(統編50826652)。APcore希望能幫助更多有潛力學生,可用較低費用抵免學分。同時在供給面,隨者老師投入時間與教學/研究品質,給予晉升職銜降低反向選擇。另一方面讓家教老師成為較穩定工作,利用學習曲線優勢,滿足小眾消費者的需求。
In 2010, Mr. Su participated in the selection process for an economics tutor for well-known actors on the set of Ang Lee’s film Life of Pi. This experience made us realize the limitations of traditional schools and cram institutions, and how difficult it is for niche self-directed learners to find the support they need. In 2014, Mr. Su officially founded his tutoring team, which now serves students and professionals around the world, including U.S. school students, physicians, senior executives, and leading cram school instructors.
In 2017, a well-known gifted student from Taiwan was granted an exceptional admission to NYU in the US, becoming one of the youngest students in the history of the university. Although the student was admitted to NYU that year, he postponed his enrollment due to personal reasons. The teachers from our tutoring team had the privilege to assist the student by enabling them to take AP (Advanced Placement) courses in Taiwan at a lower cost than studying abroad. As a result, the student was able to transfer over 30 credits upon enrollment the following year.
In 2018, APcore Global Education was established, with the English abbreviation of APcore and the Chinese name of 艾彼股份有限公司 (Unified Business No. 50826652). APcore aims to help more talented students offset their credits with lower fees. At the same time, on the supply side, as teachers invest more time and effort into teaching and research, they can be promoted to higher positions to mitigate the problem of Adverse Selection. Moreover, this allows private tutors to have more stable jobs and improve their teaching abilities to meet the needs of niche consumers.
In 2019, the student who only applied to Harvard, Yale, Wharton (U Penn), and Stanford was accepted to all. In 2020, a student achieved a perfect score on the SAT in her first exam, setting a world record. In 2021, students won the world championship in the VEX robotics competition. In 2022, a student won the First Award of the American Chemical Society in ISEF. In 2023, a student was named a Regeneron STS Scholar and featured on the front page of the Greenfield Recorder newspaper. In 2024, the podcast produced by APcore began collaborating with multiple media outlets.
