We understand that the recent reemphasis on standardized testing in America puts a lot of pressure on teachers.
High school teachers are, quite understandably, often reluctant to devote valuable class time to teaching SAT test preparation.
Number2.com is designed to provide students with a forum for following a self-directed program of study in all areas of the SAT (and GRE).
The site offers a vocabulary builder, practice sessions complete with interactive feedback, and tutorial sessions in which the student is taught about basic techniques for answering various types of questions.
Each student's course will be individualized, so that students see only questions best suited for their current level of ability.
In addition to using the materials created by Number2.com, teachers can also monitor students' progress by signing up as their coaches.
Teachers who sign on as coaches will be able to see how many tutorials and questions their students have completed, along with how well they are doing.
Coaches will also be able to see how many words their students have mastered in the Vocabulary Builder.
We believe that the combination of superb material and tools for monitoring performance will make it much easier for teachers to provide the high quality preparation help they know their students deserve.
We have many ideas and suggestions for implementing test preparation teaching techniques, so please contact us
if you have questions about how best to incorporate the kind of things Number2.com teaches into your curriculum.
We would also like to hear about your experiences using Number2.com in the classroom.
