It was great! Easy to work through, fun to learn, and quick to understand. I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in learning about government.

This is a great class and you learn a lot but it is a lot of work. It takes a long time and there are lots of assignments a week. Tough class. But well organized!

This class was a lot of fun and very helpful. I definitely feel like I learned a lot about our government that I hadn’t really understood before! Any time I reached out to the teachers for help on an assignment, they got right back to me and were very supportive and easy to work with.

I have never really had any interest at all in Government so I wasn’t looking forward to this class this year, but now my mind has changed. This class gave me a great understanding of our Government and how it works and the little things and processes that happen and they go through. We played games to help us remember things and at the end of each week’s assignments we got to do research on some current events, plus so much more. This helped with my view of the world around me and so much more. I definitely recommend taking it.

I really really enjoyed this class! Starting out I definitely did not expect to like it as much as I did because government never really interested me. After a while though, I realized how many things I never knew about the United States and how interesting it could be! I will be heading to college in the next couple years and now classes in government have been added to my list of potential college majors. Learning about our country is so important and I definitely recommend that you take a government class, especially this one. Not only did I have fun but I have learned information and gained knowledge that will benefit me for the rest of my life. Thanks!

This class was very educational and enjoyable. I was very nervous about it at first but soon realized that it was not overly difficult and very fun! There were group projects, simulations, presentations, and current event studies, and I enjoyed every one of them. I now know so much more about the American Government and can form my opinions. It also gives me more confidence when talking to people about political matters and discussing history with them. I would definitely recommend this class!

This class was really fun and exciting to participate in! I learned more about American government in this this class then any other previous class that I have taken. Mrs van der Merwe was an excellent teacher and I could tell that she put a lot of effort into her class.

This class was very educational. It seamlessly combined all the material I needed to know, as well as chances to study current events and figure out how they related to the topics we were discussing. This approach made the realm of government come alive for me and make sense in a whole new way. At the start of the semester I thought that government would be a very confusing topic, but by the end of the semester I was able to look back on how much I learned and see that, with the proper tools, government can be a fascinating and rewarding thing to study. I greatly appreciated this class and I would highly recommend it!

This class is really well done, and is not too challenging while still being completely worth your time. I would definitely recommend this course.

This class was enjoyable, and Mrs. van der Merwe is an understanding teacher. The class covers a lot of important content in a little amount of time; but it’s manageable and worth every penny. I have learned so much about how the government works, and I know that knowledge will stick with me.
