掌握 AP 歐洲歷史：撰寫 DBQ、LEQ 和考試準備

This 6-week study group is designed to help students master the essential skills needed for success on the AP European History exam. We will focus on key exam skills, such as analyzing primary sources, writing clear thesis statements, and effectively comparing historical events. Each week, students will gain a deeper understanding of both content and technique, preparing them to confidently tackle DBQs, LEQs, and SAQs. 

The historical content will align with the Unit being covered at this point in the academic year. Students may repeat the course as they progress through the Units. The examples will be updated to align with what they are covering.

Each session is focused on a specific AP exam skill—such as document analysis, thesis writing, or making historical comparisons. The course is structured with a mix of instruction, hands-on practice, and interactive discussions. Sessions will also include short content reviews of major historical periods to support skill-building exercises.

I will guide students through the AP skills in a highly interactive manner. My teaching style combines short lectures, slides, video clips, and group discussions to ensure that students engage with the material in multiple ways. After introducing a key skill, we’ll dive into real AP-style practice questions, working together to break down how to approach each question type.

What’s my teaching style? 

My approach is supportive and student-focused. I prioritize engagement and active learning, encouraging students to share their ideas, ask questions, and participate in discussions. I believe in giving personalized feedback so that each student can continuously improve their writing and analysis skills.

Each session includes:
•	Small-group discussions on key historical events and themes.
•	Collaborative practice with writing DBQs, LEQs, and SAQs.
•	Direct feedback on writing assignments and strategies for improvement.
•	Opportunities to ask questions and receive clarification during class or via messages outside of class.

By the end of the course, students will have strengthened their historical analysis, improved their essay-writing skills, and gained confidence in their ability to succeed on the AP European History exam.
