Your AP® Exam Survival Guide: An Interactive Q&A Event
Tuesday, April 15, 2025 at 7:00pm EST
Presented by: Parthena Draggett
Do you have any questions as you prepare students for AP® exams? Please join me for this open discussion webinar that will focus on your questions, concerns, and needs! Instead of a structured presentation, teachers will engage with me in a live Q&A format. You can ask questions about student learning needs, challenges for these last few weeks before exams, how to make sure that exam day is successful, and any other course and/or exam concerns that you may have. Our goal is to help teachers to gain deeper insights about how to prep students for exam day, empowering them to feel to prepared, confident, and ready to send students off to the AP® World Language and Culture exams.
