Jonathan Law AP U.S. History and Civics teacher Mr. Lui has has been teaching Law for nine years.

When asked about his favorite class to teach, Lui spoke highly of APUSH, citing his passion for the subject.

“My favorite class to teach is APUSH because it allows me to share my passion for history while watching my students grow throughout the year, especially in their writing and their ability to analyze different time periods,” Lui said.

Lui is also the assistant girls swim coach at Law. 

“Similar to teaching APUSH, my favorite part of coaching is seeing the growth that takes place over the course of a season,” Lui said. “As a swim coach, it’s incredibly rewarding to watch a swimmer climb out of the pool excited after achieving a personal best.”

Lui said he has a fun, hard-working group of students this year.

“They’re great this year,” Lui said. “Both of my classes have been performing well on assessments. They’re a nice group of students who want to succeed.”

Sophomore Yusuf Genc spoke about how Mr. Lui helps him succeed in his class.

“Mr. Lui helps me in many different ways,” Genc said. “He provides notes for every chapter, and many sources that help me learn. Before the midterm, Mr. Lui provided us with reviews that I could use to study, helping me prepare for the test.”

Sophomore Fiad Rahman said Lui’s methods of teaching work well for him.

“Mr. Lui creates Learning Targets for us,” Rahman said. “He presents information on the chapter that we’re doing on the SmartBoard in a slideshow presentation that he created. Then, we can type down this information in our learning target document. This method is extremely helpful for us students as we can look back on them for review.”

Lui has been a helpful resource for his students. His teaching style is widely praised by students taking his classes.

Sophomore Erik Borowski said Lui supported him during class.

“His style of teaching with the notes and everything,” Borrowski said. “They helped me with the tests, without them I don’t think that I would have done as well on them. I hope it can translate to the final as well.”
