He will not do the work for you. You have to work for it and follow his techniques. Many tutors can review the material but few get right to work and show you exactly how to create the essays for the AP exams without wasting time. My daughter will be taking AP Exam in May 2020 and I will post how she did. No matter what, Morgan will make certain she is better prepared to meet the test challenge and give her the confidence to do her best. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I read couple of biographies and I was impressed by Mr. Christopher’s . I am glad I was able to find him . He has helped my daughter immensely. Mr. Christopher is very knowledgeable and passionate about AP World History. After her tutoring sessions i ask her to tell me what she learned and not only she uses intelligent words but also terms that are needed to be known to take the AP exam. I couldn’t have found a better AP history tutor !

She started as an average kid struggling to maintain her grades and ended up as a star student with two 5s in her Ap Euro and US History classes and A+ grades. To our surprise and our youngest did the same ! Having Preston as a teacher allowed him to pursue competitive extracurriculars, miss his classes and yet become a better student in the courses he missed. Thank you so much Preston! They would not have had a chance to go get accepted into their top colleges without having you as an AP history teacher!
