When a noun or word is followed by another noun or phrase that renames or identifies it, this is called appositive. For example, "Our teacher, Mr. Davis, is out sick today." The appositive is the word that renames the subject. So, if the subject is "Mr. Davis", what word is renaming him? That would be the appositive. Hope this helps. :)
