.Many parents want to wait until right before the ISEE or SSAT test to begin preparation, believing that this will keep the information fresh in their child’s mind. However, cramming at the last minute only stresses children out more and it is too difficult to learn that many skills and test-taking techniques in a short amount of time. As the following article shows, working with a private tutor on a regular basis will allow your child to acquire and practice the content and test-taking skills they will need to do their best on the ISEE or SSAT test.
How to Prep for the ISEE/SSAT? Consistently.
Countless parents have asked me same question: “What is the one thing that I can do to get my child ready for his/her ISEE/SSAT?” If you want to improve your child’s ERB or SSAT scores, you only need to do the following: Practice REGULARLY. Students need to decode the language of these standardized tests if they want to understand the questions being asked of them in the first place. It’s a well-accepted fact that consistency and immersion are the two cornerstones of language learning. If you make sure to apply a language every day, if only for a few minutes, you’ll learn that language much faster than someone who only thinks about it “every so often.” The biggest key to ISEE/SSAT prep is creating a program that can be reliably applied every day. If this isn’t possible, get as close to this ideal as you can. Of course, the longer you can spend per day on a routine basis, the more improvement you’ll see, but the most important step that you can take in improving your standardized test scores is to incorporate these tests into your everyday routine. Whether you’re working with a tutor or following a program of self-study, be sure to apply consistency and regularity.
