Hi.
I am a Junior Special Education and Elementary Education major. The growing trend in our education is to encorporate technology in whatever ways we can. What better way than to provide a preparation course for students that want to increase their test scores. This program will lesson anxiety and fears of the test while preparing the students for one of the most important tests of their future.
Having the experience of an ACT prep course I can attest to the benefits that I have reaped from that course. I can personally say that my score went up 5 points. I can only imagine what a technology program helping prepare students for the ACT can do. I would love to implement this program in my future classes, as I a sure my students would love to use this program. This confidence booster is exactly what all students need before they take a huge decision maker for their life.

Hello! I am currently studying both special education and elementary education with a minor in Math Education. As I was looking through the website and the unique offerings of this program was I immediately interested. High School is a very important time for many students as they begin to understand their identity but at the same time high standards and expectations are made for the students to do well in school and high stakes test in order to go to school and eventually become successful. As I reflect back at my high school experience I remember taking prep courses for the ACT and found them to be greatly beneficial. Because I took the ACT twice, once without the prep and once after taking the prep courses my personal experiences can attest to the benefactor of the prep courses. Because these tests play a crucial role in scholarships and college acceptances, it is important that schools and educators are aware of the resources available for students to improve their test scores. This program is great because it is not only a tutorial but it helps students prepare for what the actual test will be like including similar questions and timing. ePrep is wonderful because it uses more modern approaches and allows students to interact. The most important thing for a student to have before taking a test is confidence and I think that ePrep will give students the confidence that they need in order to perform well and exceed their expectations.

I am a Junior at Trinity Christian College and double majoring in special and elementary education. I think this is a wonderful opportunity for high school students to prepare for the SAT and ACT. As a high school student, I took an ACT prep course through my school and it was very benificial. Even though I didn’t score amazing on the test, my scores that I did recieve were well above what I could have expected if I would not have taken the prep course. This would be a great way to help students not only prepare for the tests but to boost their confidence. I believe if students go into testing like these with a high level of confidence, they will score so much higher and to me that would be well worth the program! Thanks!

I am a student at Trinity Christian. I am majoring in elementary education and minoring in special education. The ACT and SAT can be very stressful and difficult for some students. I remember taking those tests in high school. I didn’t prepare much for them but I always wish that I would have. I think that ePrep is a great idea, especially for struggling students or special education students. Helping the students prepare for the test could help to greatly increase the test scores.

I am a student at Trinity Christina College majoring in Education and I think it is great that ePrep tracks the progress of students and helps identify a student’s strength and weakness. I do wish that I ePrep was around when I was preparing for my ACT’s…I think students will benefit from using this program especially since it helps prepare a student for important tests like the ACT and SAT.

I am a student at Trinity Christian College majoring in special education. I can see the benefits of ePREP as it gives a way for students to incorporate technology into their learning. And the feeling of having a one on one tutor could greatly enhance a students confidence and learning when preparing for these tests.
