Susan Barber
Susan Barber teaches AP® English Literature at Midtown High School in Atlanta, Georgia, and serves English teachers on the National Council of Teachers of English Secondary Steering Committee and on the Test Development Committee for AP® Literature. She is the editor of and frequent contributor to the online resource AP Lit Help and has been an AP® Reader for the past six years. Susan, along with Carlos Escobar, instructed thousands of students (and teachers) through the College Board’s AP® Live videos after schools went remote during the spring of 2020; she was also an instructor for AP® Daily that fall. She has offered training at NCTE, Georgia Council of Teachers of English, the Folger Shakespeare Library, and AP® Summer Institutes through the College Board, and frequently leads English Language Arts workshops across the country. She has been featured in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and Edutopia. Susan is most proud, however, of the work she does on a daily basis in E225; she never tires of the beauty and chaos of the classroom.
