ISEE PREP KICK-START WORKSHOP

The HTA Isee Prep Kick-Start Workshop will be hosted this fall at First Baptist Academy on October 22 and November 1. The workshop is a great way to introduce students to the ISEE exam, obtain a baseline score and develop a customized individual practice plan. The two-day workshop begins with a proctored baseline practice test and ends with a helpful parent session that covers the student’s scores, practice plan and parent tips for holding students accountable to the plan. Students will leave with a good understanding of each section of the test including the essay and will have a firm plan to follow for 8 weeks prior to taking the exam in January.

Testimonials
“Houston Tutorial Association (HTA) offers Study Skills and the Writing with Ease program for our Middle School students. The director and staff collaborate with our teachers in order to adapt their programs and customize lessons to support our curriculum. Each child receives individual attention, student progress is well documented and well communicated to the parents and our teachers and the end of course assessments are testimony to how well their teachers got to know our students. The Study Skills course was so successful that our parents and faculty requested its return.”
