Ms. Smart does an amazing job taking a complex subject and and explaining it in a meaningful manner by using real world examples and easy to understand language. She goes above beyond by also sharing test taking strategy and academic advice that I will definitely use in my classes. This is a great resource for students, parents, and new APHuG teachers!

I love human and cultural geography, and unfortunately there are too few podcasts about it! I’m so happy to have found this, because the subject is enthralling, and Miss Smart clearly has a lot of passion and love for the subject! I hope this podcast lasts a long time. There’s certainly enough humanity to cover ❤️

I get that this is a podcast for students but I really love human geography and so I was hoping for some good human geography content between the many, tips and tricks for students episodes. Unfortunately, when a episode about a topic other than school navigation tips comes up it’s more of a light topic with introduction information. Human geography covers a lot of topics and I understand that this is for a high schooler to understand within a semester but in the episodes I listened to I wasn’t hearing as much about human geography as I was light coverage about government systems, agriculture, with very easy and basic connections to human geography. Often statements were glossed over or not backed up with much detail. Again, I understand this is based not only on a high school class but is meant to be in bite sized small topics. However with a podcast description stating a experienced human geography teacher will help “navigate the exciting but challenging world of human geography content” I expected something with more substance. Perhaps it would be better to change the description to specify that this is a podcast made for if you’re taking that specific high school class instead of having it read like it will be a podcast about human geography. TLDR: If you’re taking the class this is made for apparently it’s great but if you’re looking for a podcast about deeper human geography then this isn’t for you.
