To succeed in any of Mr. Bourassa's AP classes you need to make time out of your week (I took just 45 minutes every Sunday) to study the relevant material. Both AP Economics and AP World History are very intense classes with lots of information to memorize.

Mr. Bourassa is one of the kindest people you will meet. He really cares about you but many of his students can say that his teaching style becomes very easily boring and is not engaging nor enthusiastic. He will put in a few jokes to pull you in but overall it is very hard for many students to pay attention and some recommend external resources to grasp knowledge that was easily lost during class time. That being said, if you don't particularly understand something, ASK HIM FOR HELP! Like the first sentence reads, Mr. Bourassa is so nice!! He will always try and make time either during homeroom or after school to help you and he constantly offers guidance and one-on-one sessions.
