I have been tutoring AP US history, college US history, and K-12 US history for the last three years with The Princeton Review and my students' grades have improved by at least one letter in their classes.

Good grasp of knowledge and organized

I like using both slides and a lecture in order to solidify my knowledge on history. The lectures are logically thought out and mostly thorough, which is great for just a preview. Definitely recommend Amanda for APUSH.
