Lesson Comments

Michael contacted me directly to set this up. He has a DBQ tomorrow. We reviewed the possible topics his teacher provided him with. He told me has only done 4 DBQ's this year. The AP Exam is 6 weeks away!!! I gave him some strategies on how to practice for them. He asked if we could set up a regular appointment to work on DBQ's leading up to the exam. He will contact me to coordinate a day and time.
