AP Language & Composition Intensive

Course Description

Whether one is about to take AP English Language & Composition in the fall, interested in taking the AP exam in the spring, or simply wants to deepen his/her/their understanding of non-fiction argument and analysis, this course will provide an overview of the AP Lang “big ideas” and “skills” both for exam purposes and beyond. Among the numerous focal points of the course, students will learn how to improve their timed writing skills, how to assess the rhetorical situation, and how to organize a line of reasoning in order to support a claim with evidence. We will also go over multiple choice strategies that can be applied to both AP English exams and other standardized tests. The hope is that students will emerge from the course as more confident writers and analytical thinkers.
