Mrs. Breen doesn't teach at East anymore(she moved on to better things, lol)! But I wanted to write this review just in case she comes back! (or if you go to Cinnaminson HS) Workload: She assigns a lot of work: worksheets, videos, lab reports, take home tests, and in-class tests. It's not going to kill you though. Don't worry if you do bad on the in-class tests, the take-home tests should balance it out if you work hard on them. Ended with like a 91. In class tests are multiple choice with a FRQ section. They're hard but not as hard as some of the other AP Chem teachers'. The take-home tests are mostly short response with some FRQs. She gives partial credit so don't worry if your answer isn't entirely correct.

Extremely kind, understanding, attentive teacher. I don't know a single person that disliked her. Teaches the material extremely well and prepares you nicely for the AP Chem exam. She is very accessible outside of class towards April-May(AP season).
