Cannon was an adequate teacher. I passed both AP Macroeconomics (4) and AP U. S. Government & Politics (3) with Cannon. These classes are super easy. You can pass Government and Macroeconomics merely depending on online resources. The classwork is sufficient enough to only gain basic knowledge to get a 1 or 2 on the AP exams. For Government: find study packets and read them multiple times; take practice MC tests, take and review past AP FRQ exams; and watch YouTube videos on the court cases, amendments, and foundational documents. For Macroeconomics: I watched AP Daily videos, took notes on the videos, and went over what I took note on; took and review past FRQ exams; and I purchased Jacob Clifford's Ultimate Review Packet (includes great practice materials). If I knew how easy these classes were, I would not have taken them. I would have only taken the AP exams. You can truly do a crash course review a month or two before the exam the way I outlined above and pass. Taking the class via high school is a waste of time. All that unnecessary work when you can just review. Save that time and use it to take Dual Enrollment coursework at a Community College or self-study for AP exams like AP Biology, AP Physics C, AP Chemistry, etc. Or use that time to learn a coding language. Coding is the future. Knowing how to code -> Never being unemployed

Ms. Cannon taught these courses like college survey courses, which is good. So if you cannot handle college coursework, do not take the class. AP U. S. Government and AP Macroeconomics were brief and fun in my experience.
