Mike talks with Jennifer Camara-Pomfret, longtime AP English teacher, instructor for Mass Insight, and Department Chair at Seekonk High School. Topics include strategies in writing the Argument and Synthesis essays, making sure students “fill their cups” with knowledge including current events, history, and literature.
Jen also emphasizes the need to “stay on the pole” or stick your thesis statement and respond logically to prompts with relevant lines of reasoning. She shares insight on her AP Language units, activities, and curriculum that help her students to master skills, as well as improve their close reading ability and FRQ writing performance.
