Hi guys,
I am a new junior in Thayer Academy and I am Asian (spent 16 years outside the United States)

I am literally suffering from APUSH right now.
We are using Pearson’s “American Destiny” as textbook. My teacher is good. He explains things and answers questions in class.
I am also using Amsco prep book and the Insider’s Guide.

The problem is…

1. Even though I read the whole thing, I do not get the idea of what is going on for every significant event (I get much better after my teacher’s explanation but still kinda confused)

2. I have some general knowledge errors and misunderstanding and I dont even know why and how it happens

3. I dont think I have the right study method and my productivity for APUSH is kinda low

Can anyone give me some advice on APUSH?? Do you guys have some good study methods? I think I am good at analyzing but the biggest problem is I dont get any clue of what exactly happened and I cannot organize and have a structure in mind to connect everything together.

Thank you soooo much!!
HELP PLEASE!!!
