 Review the Review January 7, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this book so that I could brush up on my math skills before taking the basic skills test for the MTTC. However, while taking the practice test in the math section I found three mistakes, and there may be more. They either gave me the wrong answer, doubled an answer, or completely contradicted themselves in the explanation. Although the majority of the questions were helpful, it made me lose a little faith in the book.
Basic Review Source for Michigan Teacher Certification Test November 13, 2007
This review source provides a basic framework for preparing for the Michigan Test for Teacher Certification. The practice questions were helpful. Michigan Department of Education internet materials are also listed. The enumeration of Michigan Department of Education lists, guidelines and criterion was valuable.
 Good Book For Elementary Teachers July 19, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The MTTC (REA) book is an excellent resource for not only passing the MTTC (Michigan Test for Teacher Certification), but a good resource book to have as a teacher. The book gives good explanation of subjects and gives beginning teachers (or not yet teachers) a glance on the subject areas they should be knowledgeable of. I would recommend this book highly to beginning teachers, not-yet teachers, and seasoned teachers as well, we can never know too much as teachers.
Good Help is Hard to Find March 23, 2007

I'm preparing for my MTTC Elementary Education Test. I took the Basic Skills test three years ago and passed it without studying, but I know the Elementary Education Test is going to be a hare harder so I got the book to review.
The book offers study-help hints, subject review and a practice test with a bubble-sheet, answer key, and my favorite--answer explanations for both the teacher certification test AND the basic skills test.
The answer explanations justify the practice test's correct answers and describes why the other choices for each questions are not. The MTTC review book also covers how the both real tests are scored.
In all, I'm recommending the book because it's helped me brush up a bit on all the basics of educational philosophy and the backbones of test subject matter such as language arts, mathematics, social studies, science, the arts, and health/phys ed.
I'll be testing for teacher certification April 14th. Wish me luck!

Buying the Bundled MTTC Prep Guides June 13, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased the bundled package which included the MTTC Teacher Prep Book with the CD and the book without the CD. The books are idendical, so don't bother buying the bundled package. Purchasing one or the other would be sufficient.
In terms of a review, I haven't used the book yet.
