LMSW PREP

Amanda was an amazing tutor. She was reliable, helpful, and educated on helping me and prepping me to take my exam. Amanda would make sure she would explain and take her time for me to understand the material. Amanda would also send me material that I would request based off what I have learned in my session or anything I needed to help me take my exam. Amanda’s experience also made it easy to learn from her and comfortable as well. I highly recommend Amanda if you are preparing to take you ASWB social license exam!!

LMSW TEST PREP

AMANDA WAS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ON THE SUBJECT AND PROVIDED EXTRA STUDY MATERIAL BASED ON MY TYPE OF LEARNING. SHE ALSO EXPLAINED HOW TO BREAK THE QUESTIONS DOWN AND ELIMINATE THE ANSWERS THAT DID NOT PAERTAIN TO THE QUESTION. SHE WAS AWESOME. IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE AMANDA IS YOUR PERSON!

Very astute tutor! Knows her stuff 👍

Keywords tips to look for in the vignettes, great way in breaking down the question to know exactly what they are looking for to get the RIGHT answers. Very helpful 🙂

Knowledgeable tutor

Amanda helped my to identify my weaknesses and how I may misinterpret things. As she helped me to reprocess how I think will hopefully answer future test questions more accurately.

A Great Start to Examination Preparation!

I had begun preparing for a comprehensive multiple-choice examination with Amanda W. Amanda was obviously an expert and she taught me a lot. Initially, in the beginning, we reviewed some approaches to the questions. She listened, as I recounted during practice quizzes: One reads the entire question, treats the question as a separate one from the others, looks for key words, figures out what the question is asking, deciphers what knowledge, skills, and abilities the question is testing. One uses the process-of-elimination (POE), when selecting the correct answer from the four (4) choices. One reads all four (4) answers, before selecting from them! As I practiced these approaches to multiple-choice questions, it had helped increase and boost my confidence in my selection of the correct answers. I wasn't cognizant of these approaches before, and I'm quite happy with the progress I've made. Thanks.

LCSW Prep

Amanda taught me to focus on areas to study that I am not as familiar with. Amanda suggested study materials. Amanda taught me how to think like a social worker when answering questions.
