To review everyday you should just review what you learned that day for that class and the day before. That way you are looking over what you learned and reviewing what you learned. Taking notes is fairly simple. You can do cornell notes with the main ideas on the left then the details on the right. Whatever way you take notes, when you go to review them highlight the important stuff so when you look back on them you know what is important. To write better essays you just need to follow the teachers directions, then once you get your essay back, see where you can improve and where your teacher says you need improvement. Talk to your teacher about how you don't speak english very well and see what s/he recommends to do.

You should at least review your notes daily.  Just try talking to your English teacher about your struggle when it comes to essays, and see if you can get help.  You are certainly good at English, even if you can't write as well.

To write better essays is to practice. Practice practice practice. You know what also helps? Discussions. When writing an essay, especially regarding the Argumentative and rhetorical, you are having a conversation with yourself, simultaneously trying to prove a point to your audience (AP Reader), so have insightful conversations in class. Your teacher for AP English Lang plays a significant role in this exam. English requires discussion, insight, and a great teacher!

For AP History and AP Chemistry, you should review the materials you learned in class as soon as you can after school. You might even be surprised to see how much you have forgotten in such a short period of time:) You will understand the concepts much better and help with memorization (especially since there are lots to remember in History and Chemistry)
