Hi there! I’m Brooks—a high-energy AP U.S. History/Government teacher with a passion for helping new educators survive and thrive in the classroom. With a master’s in American history and a decade of experience, I’ve turned my obsession with primary sources, political schematics, and “aha!” moments into a treasure trove of strategies for new teachers.
Why work with me?
Battle-tested frameworks: From DBQ breakdowns to SCOTUS case speed-dating, I’ll share the exact lesson plans and pacing guides that keep my students engaged (and my sanity intact!).
AP insider intel: Learn how to hack the exam rubric, spot common student pitfalls, and turn dry content into classroom magic.
College prep hacks: My college-prep resources help bridge the gap between “I hate history” and “Wait, this is actually fascinating?!”
What you’ll get:
Instant access to my library of hundreds of resources
Proven methods to simplify complex topics like electoral college math or Reconstruction-era politics
Real talk about classroom management, parent emails, and surviving May’s AP grind
When I’m not geeking out over the Federalist Papers or creating Hamilton-inspired review raps, you’ll find me helping teachers like you avoid rookie mistakes and build confidence fast. Let’s turn your lesson plans from “meh” to “mic drop”!
