Learn the Secret to Success on the AP United States Government and Politics Exam!After nearly 20 years of teaching Lewis Morris discovered a startling fact: Most students didn't struggle with the subject, they struggled with the language. It was never about brains or ability. His students simply didn't have the knowledge of the specific language needed to succeed. Through experimentation and research, he discovered that for any subject there was a list of essential words, that, when mastered, unlocked a student's ability to progress in the subject. Lewis called this set of vocabulary the "Insider's Words". When he applied these "Insider's Words" the results were incredible. His students began to learn with ease. He was on his way to developing the landmark series of Books and applications to teach this "Insider's Language" to students around the world.Our books and applications are helpful to any student.
