Charlene Young ★★★★★ a month ago
Really enjoyed the AP Government Study Packets you offered on Supreme Court Cases and … More Foundational Docs. Also, the willingness to clarify AP digital testing things as they were updated this year. But honestly, I can't get past the cute dog logo. He's what really keeps me coming back!

Marco Learning is an amazing source for AP test prep and review. Marco is also a great … More resource for AP teachers to garner a greater understanding of their AP course and the AP exam for their course. Marco Learning is a key resource in my APUSH courses and my students time and time again point to the resources from Marco Learning as one of the key resources in preparing them for the AP exam.

Marco Learning is an awesome resource for me as a teacher! They have so many different … More PD courses and resources that helped me be a better AP Language and Composition teacher this year. The instructors were phenomenal and actually covered useful concepts that I could use in my classroom. They were really professional and knew what they were talking about! I would definitely recommend Marco Learning to any teacher!

Chelsea Bassham ★★★★★ a month ago
I teach AP Euro and Marco Learning made my experience teaching … More the course this year so much better. I was able to gain many free resources, as well as attend some online training in the summer of 2020. The community of helpful instructors and other teachers alike helped to keep me encouraged and motivated. Marco Learning is always great with communication and is constantly up to date on important exam info.

I found Marco Learning AP English Language and Composition mentoring and resources so … More valuable. Kate Upton is awesome, the videos are awesome, the resources are awesome. Since I am the only AP Lang teacher at my school, the monthly mentor meetings provided me much needed support that what I was doing in my classroom aligned well with what my mentor found essential.

Vicky Villa ★★★★★ a month ago
Marco Learning is filled with incredible teachers and resources for AP students (and high … More school students in general). I have been a close follower for over a year now, and I love everything about Marco Learning. They are extremely informative, helpful, and supportive!!

Audrey Gebber ★★★★★ a month ago
There aren't enough positive adjectives in the English language (or any other, for … More that matter) to express how much I value Marco Learning and how much gratitude I have for their selflessness. Thank you -- genuinely -- for everything you do for us.

Stella Blue ★★★★★ a month ago
Marco Learning seminars have been a gift, both for me and the students. John's calm … More demeanor and down-to-earth speaking style are easy to follow, and his presentations are much more interesting than those in AP Classroom.

Meilin Lamanna ★★★★★ a month ago
Whether it made me feel more confident with the course content, with myself and just encouraging … More and supporting me, MarcoLearning is a must for anyone taking AP classes.

Margy Pryor ★★★★★ a month ago
Marco materials have helped me immensely this past year. As I was struggling to provide … More materials and feedback to online and in-person students in synchronous learning, their materials helped me to streamline the process of feedback and to create lessons that would work for all of my students. I used their M-C materials and their check-box rubrics. I also showed a couple of their instructional videos to my classes to keep from reinventing the wheel.

Ben Bredemeier ★★★★★ a month ago
Marco Learning is fantastic! As a new AP Coordinator their emails and webinars were extremely … More helpful!

Emilia Magdaleno ★★★★★ 5 months ago
I couldn't imagine my school life without them. They are genuinely incredible people … More who not only make me laugh during their live sessions, but also give me great advice. <3

Shannon Mason ★★★★★ 5 months ago
Marco Learning is a trusted organization that provides content at a level students can … More access easily and engage in. They provide a variety of "free" teacher lessons and other supports that allow teachers to adapt quickly to AP College Board changes and to support student success.

Christine Luther-Morris ★★★★★ 5 months ago
Great presentations. So generous with their time and knowledge. They continue to help … More inspire me and keep my teaching fresh after 20+ years.

Sean C ★★★★★ 7 months ago
Marco Learning offer very valuable resources that are easy to understand. In addition, … More Marco Learning presents their lessons in an engaging manner and also adds in some inside jokes and pictures of Marco (the adorable support dog who is also their mascot). So yes, I think Marco Learning is better than all the other "tutoring" places that I have heard about. Not only did they help me feel more confident about the APs and SATs, they did it in a fun way and that is the most important part. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For Marco!

Myah Crowell ★★★★★ 11 months ago
Marco Learning creates a positive, welcoming learning environment through the screen. … More Any questions are answered almost immediately, the presentations are insightful, and the instructors are personable, good-natured people passionate about their subjects. Marco not only responds swiftly during class but offers a rapid response in their social media pages. I've completed 3+ Marco courses now, and I have taken away valuable information from each one. I've never been able to say that with complete confidence about an online course before, and I'm looking forward to attending more Marco courses in the future!

CB Dahan ★★★★★ a year ago
AP classes can be stressful and overwhelming. Luckily I had Marco Learning to guide me … More through every step of the way. They offer many free amenities such as preparations, practice tests and reviews. There are opportunities where you can pay to have multiple review sessions where you can ask questions and interact with Marco learning teachers. As well as multiple practice tests that they grade. And that’s only part of what they offer. Marco leaning is the best and I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

Anna Newton ★★★★★ a year ago
Marco Learning has been the best online PD for educators that I have seen in a long time, … More especially for high school and AP courses! So many times educational companies give you the smallest amount of free items to snag you into pay huge amounts of money for resources and PD. The spring of 2020 has been a huge transition. There were so many free resources, such as study guides and review videos. While they do also have courses/PD that you pay for, it is a reasonable price. All the people with Marco Learning are honest, supportive, responsive, and engaging! You "walk" away with many resources, videos, lessons that you have access to for a year, which of course you can download and save. They have also created Google and Wakelet communities to share resources for an unlimited amount of time.

Amanda Lopez ★★★★★ a year ago
Marco Learning gives students a variety of resources to study and create great videos … More that explain specific time periods or topics of certain subjects. The teachers at this institution are amazing and give their students special attention to ensure everyone is comprehending the information. My experience with Marco Learning allowed me to learn from different teachers and get great scores on my AP exams. Definitely would recommend for anyone searching to do well on an AP exam/SAT/ACT.

Joyce Cruse ★★★★★ a year ago
As a high school teacher for 35 years and an AP teacher for half that time - I can say … More that my year-long experience with Marco Learning has been the best professional development of my career. Their resources are excellent - on point with the latest changes to the AP curriculum - practical - they can be applied immediately to the classroom - student and teacher friendly - I don't have to do a ton of research to use their resources and they are written so students can practice the skills they need for the AP exam. Participating in the webinars has given me the opportunity to reflect on my own instruction and to make changes to improve student learning. John Moscatiello is a gifted and brilliant facilitator and Tom Richey is Tom Richey - a gem beyond words. Lastly -Marco Learning was a lifeline in a sea of uncertainty during this pandemic There was so much fear and so many questions as to how the shutdown would impact my students and their chances for success on the AP exams. Marco Learning provided invaluable resources and insights that enabled me to better prepare my students for their exams. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
