Writing the Sentence Workshop
- Odelia Chan
Tuition: $119
So you think you know what a sentence is? Think again.
In each 3-week workshop, we'll dive deep into the definition and make-up of a sentence, what separates the great ones from the not-so-memorable ones (90+% of all sentences out there these days!), and finally, how to write a sentence worth reading.
We'll cover more than just analysis and critique of sentences past. We'll create new ones that spark the mind and ignite the heart. We'll beat ChatGPT at its own game, and discover what exactly makes writing a truly human endeavor.
After all, sentences are the building blocks of the written (and spoken) word. This 3-week summer workshop is designed to inspire, educate, and entertain through an in-depth look at the art of communicating through words.
We'll see you on the other side of the period. (Or exclamation mark, or question mark, or...)

AP Comparative Government and Politics
- Julia Reed
Tuition: $685
AP Comparative Government and Politics is a dynamic class for all students, especially those looking to understand the inter workings and dynamic nature of international politics.
This course will first and foremost prepare the students to be successful on the AP Comparative Government and Politics exam. The tests and written work will be formatted in a similar manner to allow them practice and refinement over the year. The course will, on its broadest level, consider "ideas and their consequences." Ideas and worldviews are at the root of how everyone sees the world (metaphysics), and gains knowledge and understands truth (epistemology). An individual and a government's view on these things influences their decisions and ultimately lives and countries are impacted.
Today's world is highly interdependent and global in nature. Students will learn to think globally and will explore the impact of countries' interactions. Students will learn, not only how our country interacts and affects the world, but also how other nation-states, as well as non-governmental organizations, shape our world. We will compare and contrast ideologies, governments, and policies in order to grasp the significance of the current world political scene and analyze its impact.
We will focus primarily on the following countries: the United Kingdom, Russia, China, Mexico, Nigeria, and Iran. These countries will not only prepare the students for the exam but will give them a broad understanding of the major political systems.
This course will be exciting, connecting political ideas with real-world realities. Students will be assessed through tests, short papers, various assignments, and class discussion. We will meet every week for lecture/class discussion. We will use Canvas as our course platform (password protected). Additionally, we will have a time to meet to discuss current affairs and developing news in our key countries. Throughout the year we will have guest speakers, who will come to talk to us about real life experiences in these countries.

AP European Hist
- Michael Munson
Tuition: $700
AP European History is a high level academic study of modern European civilization from its origins in the fifteenth century to the present. This course is the equivalent of an introductory college or university survey of modern European history. AP Euro students will explore, analyze, and understand the significance of major European historical developments from the late Medieval Era to the present. By coming to know the history Modern Europe, students will be able to describe, explain, and discuss how the world we currently recognize, came to be. They will understand how the emergence of Modern Europe had significant influence on the world we know today. The will also come to know ways in which that influence continues and allows us insights on what the future may bring.
Below is the introduction of AP European History provided by the The College Board.
In AP European History, students investigate significant events, individuals, developments, and processes from approximately 1450 to the present. Students develop and use the same skills, practices, and methods employed by historians: analyzing primary and secondary sources; developing historical arguments; making historical connections; and utilizing reasoning about comparison, causation, and continuity and change over time. The course also provides seven themes that students explore throughout the course in order to make connections among historical developments in different times and places: interaction of Europe and the world, economic and commercial development, cultural and intellectual development, states and other institutions of power, social organization and development, national and European identity, and technological and scientific innovations.

AP European Hist
- Meredith Noah
Tuition: $720
This AP course is an in-depth look at "modern" European History starting with a brief look at the end of the Middle Ages and ending with the current time period with a discussion on contemporary issues impacting the continent.

AP Human Geography
- Carol Ann Gillespie
Tuition: $880
AP Human Geography is a course sometimes called "the gateway to AP testing." It is a freshman-level college course that is taught asynchronously (totally online with no "live" component) using my weekly YouTube lectures and assignments that include field trips, map analysis, and interpretation of models, charts, graphs, and other spatial data. It covers the central themes of Population, City and Urban Areas, Agriculture, Political Geography, Economic Geography, Culture, Development, and Spatial Analysis. A previous study of geography (especially world regional) is useful but not a requirement for success in the course. Because the course is online, it is very hands-on and inquiry-bad, They will use geographic analysis to sole real-life problems through the use of case studies and activities that require them to apply geographic analysis.

AP Macroeconomics
- Daniel Burns
Tuition: $675
Are you the sort of person who likes to talk about the effects of government policies and what the government should or should not do? You may be a born economist. Macroeconomics is the part of economics that studies government actions and looks mostly at problems of the economy as a whole such as inflation, unemployment, recession, international trade, and long-term growth. We will specifically learn about economics theories of important economists from Adam Smith, to John Maynard Keynes, to Milton Friedman.
In this class, you will learn how to predict the effects of government actions. For example, "What happens to unemployment rates when the government raises the minimum wage or cuts taxes?"
You will learn the skills necessary for analyzing economics problems: how to use the vocabulary of economists, how to draw “supply” and “demand” curves, how to read economics graphs, how to pull the economy out of recessions or inflationary spirals and how to promote long-term economic growth.
The most fun part of the class is the economics simulation games. Each game will be played twice (each run lasting two weeks), and there will be four games during the year.

AP Macroeconomics
- Howard Richman
Tuition: $695

This course will prepare students well for the twin goals of AP Exam/college prep, and understanding statistics in the world around them. Everyone uses statistics— we consume them through advertising, healthcare decisions, personal decision-making, playing games, and in nearly every field of study, from liberal arts to STEM, as well as in most professions. Students should expect to budget 1-2 hours per day for this course. For highly independent learners, there is also an asynchronous option available, for completing the course in just one semester. Last year, students in this section scored a "5" on the AP exam at more than double the global rate.

AP US Government
- Daniel Burns
Tuition: $675
My goal for this class is not only that students will excel on the AP U.S. Government exam, but that they will become engaged citizens and informed voters. We will discuss the big issues of freedom, opportunity, security, and equality and how they are influenced through the political process on a daily basis. I also hope to instill appreciation for the incredible heritage of liberty and representative democracy the founders gave us.
We like to have fun along the way! Games that help you apply civil liberties to specific scenarios are far more interesting than simply memorizing the Bill of Rights. We’ll take a virtual video tour of the Supreme Court. You’ll research TV ads from previous presidential campaigns to discuss which ones were effective and which were not. You will have the opportunity to watch Mr. Smith Goes to Washington for bonus points during the Congress lesson.

AP US Government
- Michael Munson
Tuition: $675
AP U.S. Government and Politics is a college-level full-year course that will prepare students for success on the AP Exam (in early May 2024). AP GoPo provides students with the content knowledge and reasoning skills that are the foundation of thoughtful and meaningful understanding of the processes of American Government and the political narratives that influence public opinion, election outcomes, and the creation of government policy. This course is a political science that explores the constitutional system and political culture of the United States. Students develop a deep understanding of American foundational documents, the reasoning and impact of significant Supreme Court decisions, the evolution of civil rights and liberties, and processes through which the ideals of American citizens influence government actions. By the end of this course students will be able to analyze and explain historical and contemporary political events by using the same political reasoning skills applied by professional political scientists.

AP US History
- Daniel Burns
Tuition: $675
AP U.S. History is not just about learning facts, but about analyzing evidence to reach conclusions. Just as professional historians evaluate a range of sources for significance and credibility, as an APUSH student you will have the opportunity to sort through evidence from primary sources, secondary sources, and our textbook to argue for your positions. What do you think about the transcendentalist literary authors? Did the South have the right to secede? What about Theodore Roosevelt’s Big Stick foreign policy? The basic idea is that APUSH students are doing history instead of just studying history.
The nuts and bolts of the course involve a variety of assignment types. These include reading primary and secondary sources, watching videos, and doing research online, as well as practice with AP-style multiple choice questions, short answer questions, essays, and document-based questions - all aimed at helping students ace the AP exam and master the content of a college-level U.S. History survey course.

AP US History
- Lisa Hawkins
Tuition: $799
NOTE: This course will include live virtual sessions during the second half of the class that will focus on APUSH test-taking skills. We will focus on essay writing, and I will use my twelve-plus year experience of being an official AP grader to help students understand what's expected of them. Time of class meetings will be determined after students communicate preferences of meeting times.
This course will cover the development of American history from its pre-colonial roots through recent developments. It will prepare students to take the AP US History exam in May. However, my goals for this course are more comprehensive than getting students ready to take the formal exam. I also hope to inspire and increase students’ love and appreciation for history, expand students’ capacity to think creatively and flexibly about critical issues, and communicate powerfully and compellingly.
Students will read primary and secondary source material, watch videos, listen to audio, and participate in discussions. They will have access to my college-level audio-visual presentations, which include both improving thinking, reading, and writing skills and covering the content of American history from origins into the 20th century. In addition, each student will learn to approach the various components of the AP exam. I offer prompt feedback to the students’ various assignments throughout the course.

AP US History
- Susan Richman
Tuition: $760
This AP US History course will thoroughly prepare students for the AP US History exam in May, 2024.
