Meet Larry Krieger

    Best-Selling Author, National SAT & AP Expert

    Biography

    Larry Krieger is not just a test prep coach — he's a legend in the world of AP and SAT success. With over 40 years of experience in classrooms across the U.S., Larry has helped thousands of students unlock their potential and conquer the most challenging exams in American education.

    Raised in a small town in western North Carolina, Larry's passion for history runs deep — his father was a bomber pilot in the Battle of Midway, and Larry grew up surrounded by the stories that shaped America. But Larry's contribution to history didn't stop with learning about it; he made his mark by teaching it, inspiring generations of students in urban, rural, and suburban schools.

    Larry's teaching career spans AP U.S. History, European History, American Government, Art History, and Sociology — all delivered with energy, humor, and a laser focus on helping students succeed. His innovative methods led the College Board to recognize him as one of the nation's top AP teachers, and his SAT coaching took Montgomery High School to the #1 SAT ranking in New Jersey.

    As the author of more than a dozen best-selling test prep books, including Winning Words and APUSH Essential Content, Larry transforms intimidating exams into achievable goals. His books go beyond dry facts: they weave pop culture, memorable examples, and real test insights into strategies students can use to excel.

    Larry's mission is simple: to help students achieve scores they once thought impossible — and to do it with confidence, clarity, and a little bit of fun along the way.
