Series Details

About

Taking AP World History this upcoming year and worried about how you are going to approach it and what's covered. In this series, we will run through the AP World curriculum, and I’ll guide you on how you should approach this course throughout the school year. AP World can be a daunting course to approach so knowing exactly what you should do and how you should do it can make a big difference. I will provide you with resources and notes that will greatly make your AP World experience better. While the majority focus will be on content, we will go through some essential skills throughout the sessions and practice them as well.

Tutor Qualifications

I took AP World History during my Sophomore year and received a 4 on the exam and maintained a 95+ both semesters.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

This series is a commitment because of the vast amount of content covered, it is crucial that you are here almost every session. Therefore, you will be withdrawn from the series if you have more than 2 unexcused absences in a row. Please message the tutor in advance for any absences!
