These two AP English webinars offer practical strategies to help both teachers and students make the most of the final month before exams, so watching the recordings will leave you with ideas you can use immediately.
Across the sessions, Dr. Brandon Abdon, Mr. Andre Scott, and Mr. Alfonso Correa share how they structure April without overwhelming students, emphasize focused essay practice over last-minute cram sessions, and build confidence by reviewing key skills like rhetorical situation, commentary, and literary analysis in small, manageable ways. You’ll also hear directly from recent AP students Louis Banks and Nevaeh Parker, who talk candidly about balancing AP prep with junior and senior-year demands, managing perfectionism and timing on exam day, and using what they learned in class to earn top scores without burnout.
