Class Experience

US Grade 9 - 12
We will explore the following critical test-taking strategies while looking at different scenarios in different ways. We will use various learning methods each week with a different focus and aim to engage the learner through discussion.

🎓 This course is perfect for learners who want to improve their study and test preparation, time management, and organization skills to develop greater confidence in their ability to effectively apply their test-taking strategies. Learners may join the journey toward reading comprehension mastery at any time, pause when they need to, and resume the course again!

😁🖱💻🔌We'll meet weekly for fun and interactive classes where we'll complete activities to help us understand and apply our weekly test-taking strategies. By the end of each class, learners will demonstrate their acquired knowledge for each strategy learned, and by the end of the course, in a final review game.
