I believe that some schools focus too much on getting that high score instead of teaching their students with fun and excitement. I’ve been taught that lessons should be engaging and active to keep the students focused and excited about learning. When schools start focusing on the test they tend to take away that excitement. I think it’s important to find a balance where the classrooms are still active and engaging but also get the material in that is necessary to pass the test. I can’t tell you how many years I remember taking time from language arts or reading in elementary and secondary grades to do practice test. Those weeks leading up to the tests were miserable and proved to be useless for me. I was one of those students that could make A’s and B’s all year but only approach basic on standardized test. This was frustrating because I was then placed in the nest grade level according to those scores not my actual grades. Looking back I wish I had teachers that had more interest in their students and not the test scores!

Absolute Consulting Engineers does electrical work, plumbing, and HVAC. Since when are they in the test development business?
Apparently, since the CEO decided he wanted to run a tutoring company on the side. This is the company's website, which is registered to...guess who? The CEO of Absolute Consulting Engineers.
So before anyone applies for this, do take a look at how busy the tutoring company is. That should give you an idea of how quickly they'll be paying you that big $15 an entry:
In the past decade, I have been greatly moved and honored to win numerous awards and been nominated for more still. My curriculum night presentations are always standing room only, because I’m the funny teacher who is going to make that half hour come to life with hands-on science, leaving them running to administration to sing my praises. ... My efforts pay off in children happily learning at high levels. Like so many of us here, I’m a doer, always thinking what more I can bring to my school and my students. Two years ago, I was lauded for my students receiving extremely high state test scores.
So, I hope you will excuse me if I’m a little grumpy that my name will be printed in newspapers and posted online as an inferior teacher in need of serious improvement. [Click below to read the rest.]
