AP LANG ESSAY OVERVIEW

Starts

AP Lang can feel very daunting, as the exam at the end of the year entails three different essays to be written: argumentative, synthesis, and literary analysis. These sessions will help you to get more comfortable either before you go into the class, OR just to improve your essay writing skills. We will go over already written essays and grade them to see what successful and unsuccessful essays look like, we will write successful essays together, and you will also write them on your own. Let's start our AP (or not) writing journey together!

AP English Language and Composition Essay Breakdown

Starts

Each session will cover an essay on the AP Lang exam: how to plan, write, and time yourself. This series gives a session PER essay, because each essay counts—devote time into learning them now, and you'll excel later! (Stick around for the additional MCQ session, as well!)

Thorough strategies will be given. No prior knowledge needed, nor any special materials. (It does help, however, if you are familiar with annotating prompts/texts).
