Series Details

About

We will cover the three types of frqs found on AP History Exams: SAQS, LEQS, and DBQS. We will start with comprehensive explanations of each question style (including key techniques and strategies to make your lives easier), accompanied by opportunities to practice and receive feedback. Because this is a summer course, so y’all have not actually learned the content yet, we will be writing about non-historical, everyday content- the point is the writing styles/structures, not the history itself :)

Tutor Qualifications

I took AP world as a sophomore in high school, I received an A in the class and a 5 on the exam; since then I’ve taken AP US History and European History with the same results.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Do your best to attend every session! There’s no penalty for missing a week, but it really helps to let me know in advanced if you’ll be gone.
