I had Mr. Rath for English 10 Honors. His class is pretty fun and is very discussion based. The first unit, the Joy Luck Club Unit, has a lot of homework. The other units are much more smooth sailing. The first day is quite interesting. You don't write many essays in this class. Most of the time we participate in discussions about what we read. The quizzes are detailed based and short answer/multiple choice while the tests are in class essays, Good luck!
As long as you pay attention in class and do the homework, you ahould be able to get an A in the class. If you're paying attention in class and doing most of the homework you shouldn't have to spend more than 5 minutes studying for a test. Also make sure to talk a lot and express your opinion even if it's controversial and make sure to have fun.
I would recommend studying before his tests. Make sure you're taking good notes, because almost everything Robinson talks about will be important. Just show that you are trying your best in his class, and you will be on his good side (he might even try and help you succeed).
Use flashcards to help study for the tests, especially for the nutrition unit. This class was pretty chill and interesting overall.
Always stay on top of your homework. You cannot afford to lose points in that category as the tests and quizzes are very challenging. This is, after all, a DOUBLE accelerated course. Also, to prepare for her tests you do NOT want to just memorize formulas and rules. Make sure you completely understand not only the information, but how to utilize it. There WILL BE material covered in earlier units on the tests, so always review previous lessons to jog back your memory. Lots of practice is required if you truly wish to succeed in this class. Good luck!
