I had Mr. Ellis for honors world cultures senior year and loved every second, especially when we got to leaning about the Middle East. The Middle Eastern peace conference is the best assignment I did all of high school and I learned so much from it. He takes the time to make sure you are very familiar with the material come test day but it is a very fun and interesting course, one of my top three favorites in all four years of high school.
