Based on my research and work with hundreds of Howard County Middle and High School students, I have developed this workshop for parents who want help with issues such as:
My child does well in class work,
but not on tests.
(Or, he/she does well on classroom tests, but
freezes up on standardized tests).
He does his homework, but doesn’t remember to hand it in.
I’m told my child “doesn’t test well,” but not why or what I can do about it.
My son/daughter is really bright, but doesn’t seem to know how to get organized (or take notes, or use their time well.)
If this sounds familiar, join me for this workshop. In this entertaining and enlightening gathering you will learn:
- The five top reasons students don’t do well on tests, and what that has to do with your child
- The single most powerful strategy for test preparation
- What your learning style is, whether it is the same or different from your child, and what difference it makes
- How to diagnose a study problem without judgment (and how to support without pressure)
- Why our kids’ brains are developing differently than ours
- The limits on your responsibility for help with homework and study skills, and community resources you should know about
You will leave the workshop with:
- New insights and tools
- A new Stressless Tests® Parents Kit available only at this workshop
- A fun and ingenious gadget to help your child focus as she studies
