Our Test Preparation sessions are geared towards both students with upcoming exams and younger students looking to master test-taking early!

At Candelora Academics, we tailor each lesson around an individual’s strengths and growth potential.

As we guide them along the path of our 3-Step Method, students master both content and strategy, meanwhile cultivating crucial independent study and problem-solving skills.

STEP 1 — FIND FOCUS

With so many exams available, deciding which to take can be daunting for students and parents alike.  Our test preparation begins with a consultative exploration of the options. We will sit with you and your child, talking over the different tests.

After our initial sessions, you’ll know which exam is the best fit to demonstrate your child’s full potential. We’ll also put together a road map of which areas we will be focusing our efforts on, be it vocabulary, elements of critical reading, geometry topics, etc.

For our younger students, we provide a non-threatening introduction to the “world” of  standardized testing. Instead of teaching to a specific test, we target a variety of best practices, offering a natural progression towards future success.

STEP 2 — POOL RESOURCES

With so many preparation materials available, finding the right ones for your student can be costly in both time and money!

As part of preparation, we introduce students to resources that match their learning styles, interests, and primary areas of focus.

STEP 3 — SUCCESS THROUGH PROGRESS

As students build a foundation of new concepts and strategies, we expose and fill holes from past material, and measure their growth often with practice tests.

We encourage independence by giving manageable yet challenging practice assignments to build their sense of personal accomplishment and success.
