AP English Language Course Companion
2nd session
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!

AP Lang Writing Crash Course
5th session
Taking AP Lang this year? Have no fear! (and make sure you notice that that rhymes).
In this crash course, we'll cover the three types of essays you'll have to write for the AP Lang exam. We'll spend two sessions on each essay (and add extra sessions based on how much extra time we need).
In each introductory session, we'll do a quick warm-up related to the essay we will cover, then I'll go through the rubric and the mechanics of how each essay works. After that, we'll look at some example essays and score them together, and then you'll be able to write your own essay as practice on your own time. In the second session for each essay, I'll provide feedback for the practice essays you wrote beforehand.
Each session will be an hour long, and I'll add additional sessions if we need more time for practice or feedback.

✍️⭐ Crafting Captivating Narratives ✍️⭐
9th session
There are only 15 slots available for each version of this series, so register quickly! To make sure the series can be hosted, we need at least 5 learners registered by the start date.
This six-week series is perfect for our narrative writers of all levels, whether aspiring or professional.
Through the power of the Narrative Arc, we'll learn how we can shape stories to give the reader choice. And for what could be the first time ever, we'll have the option to use the second perspective in our writing.
Make sure to come prepared with access to Google services such as Google Docs and Google Slides, as well as access to Schoolhouse Assessments (built in). That's all you need!
This series serves as the first part to the Creative Writing Sequence I will be hosting. There will be two possible paths, and several available courses.
Please request make-up sessions through this form at least 24-hours in advance. Sessions will be hosted with 1 or more learners, so request as needed.
Note: This series will be fast paced. My availability is really limited, so in order to finish within the ten week margin, if I am unable to host both days, or you are forced to miss both weekly sessions, slides and a review activity will be made available in the assessments folder for your convenience! 🙂
Extra Note: If you've already completed the series, I recommend that you still register again. The main group will be going further than the last times this has been hosted, and there will be both extra enrichment opportunities, and the chance to "teach the group."
Additionally, if you've completed the series priorly, you're welcome to apply as a co-host! I'd love to have you.
📏 Session Length: Estimate around 6 sessions and up to 4 office hour sessions within a span of 10 weeks. Dates and times are tentative.
