I often thought I had no fears at this point in my life,
until I realized that I plan on graduating December 2014 and have to take my
certification test. I am basically freaking out and so stress out that I can
barely focus on anything else. I have never been a great nor good test taker
and to know that this could hold me back from doing what I long to do blows my
mind completely. I have began doing the necessary study methods and practicing
on Certify Teacher and taking practice TeXes exams but I feel that it’s just
not enough for me. I recently looked into purchasing the Generalist Ec-6 Study manual
so that I could have some more study materials, but then I think do I really
need that or should I just do what the school has provided. I am a believer in
the almighty God above, so I have found myself praying and asking him for
guidance. Guidance to help me do over and beyond on the actual test but also so
that I can be the best teacher I can be. Glad I could get this off my chest,
now it’s time to get to studying. I claim I will be fully certified by the end
of the summer 2014.
Article about overcoming fears(Read if you may):
How many RDNG classes have you taken? A bunch, right? The TExES exams all boil down to one skill: reading. If you read the questions carefully and avoid the answers that discriminate and/or don't address the exact point of the question, you should do just fine.
ReplyDeleteIf you're scoring 270-290 in Certify Teacher, even if you're stressed during the real thing, you can make a 240!
