AP World History
Comprehensive Weekly Tutoring Program

  • Structured weekly group program: Bree offers a structured weekly tutoring program to help students better navigate this difficult college-level course. During the school year, Bree teaches her AP World History students the course content and more, helping them prepare for their multiple choice tests, FRQs, Finals, and the May AP Exam (see College Board Course Content Description, below). One-hour prepared group lesson per week; instruction takes place at the same day/time.
  • New group formation: If an open weekly group does not currently exist, it takes 4 students minimum to form a group (students must provide partners who attend the same school). Space is limited and spots fill on a first-come, first-served basis. There is a waitlist system in place.
  • As-needed private help: While most students prefer the guidance, support, and resources associated with Bree’s structured weekly program, Bree is also available on an as-needed basis when students need help on a particular topic.
