AP English Language Course Companion
Starts
AP Lang can be tough with the amount of concepts you need to learn! I remember being super overwhelmed at the beginning of the year, and I would have loved to have had extra support. I got a 5 on my AP exam, but I couldn't have done it without tutoring, so I wanted to help others who are worried about taking the course or just want to increase their knowledge. I will be using the College Board curriculum as well as resources my teacher used and extra things I did myself when studying! This course will go throughout the school year.
Here is what we will be learning:
1. Rhetorical Situation: Reading
Explain how writers’ choices reflect the components of the rhetorical situation.
2. Rhetorical Situation: Writing
Make strategic choices in a text to address a rhetorical situation.
3. Claims and Evidence: Reading
Identify and describe the claims and evidence of an argument.
4. Claims and Evidence: Writing
Analyze and select evidence to develop and refine a claim.
5. Reasoning and Organization: Reading
Describe the reasoning, organization, and development of an argument.
6. Reasoning and Organization: Writing
Use organization and commentary to illuminate the line of reasoning in an argument.
7. Style: Reading
Explain how writers’ stylistic choices contribute to the purpose of an argument.
8. Style: Writing
Select words and use elements of composition to advance an argument.
I will also go over anything complicated that I struggled with or that you guys need assistance with! I'll also do reviews when test day gets close :)
I'm excited to get to know you and help you ace your AP Lang test!

Tired of using AI to write? you know it's bad, but you can't stop
2nd session
🤖 "Tired of Using AI to Write? You Know It’s Bad… But You Can’t Stop?" ✍️🚫
Let’s break the cycle and build something better.
You’re not alone. So many of us are stuck in that loop:
“I’ll just use AI to help a bit...”
Next thing you know , it wrote the whole thing.
Here’s the truth: using AI too much kills your voice, weakens your confidence, and leaves you stuck depending on something that doesn't even know you.
In this series, we’re doing what school never really taught us; learning how to write in a way that’s real, doable, and kind to your brain.
🧠 What we’ll actually do (for real, not just theory):
🔍 1. Why AI feels easier, and why it backfires
We’ll dig into what makes writing hard in the first place, burnout, pressure, overthinking, and how AI preys on that. You’ll get tools to overcome the real barriers you face.
🛠️ 2. Break down how writing works (in a way that finally makes sense)
No vague advice. We’ll walk through:
How to generate ideas from nothing
What a real, strong thesis actually looks like
How to structure an essay without a template
The truth about “sounding smart” vs. sounding real
🧏♀️ 3. De-code why your writing feels off
We’ll look at examples of flat vs. powerful writing (including AI-written stuff) and show you how to improve clarity, tone, and originality, even if you’re not “good at English.”
💡 4. Quick writing hacks that build confidence fast. You’ll get sentence starters, transitions, and flow tricks that you can use in any subject.
🤝 5. THEN, we write something together
We'll pick a topic as a group and build it from the ground up, brainstorming, writing the intro, planning the body, and crafting a conclusion as a team.
You can contribute ideas, edit lines, and see how great writing comes from real voices, not robots.
✅ You’ll walk away with:
Practical writing skills that stick
More confidence in your own voice
A mini group-written essay that shows what real writing can look like
A reminder that you’re actually more capable than AI ever will be
🎯 This isn’t just a writing session. It’s your writing comeback.
Let’s stop feeling stuck, and start writing like it matters.
