Teaching is collaboration. Rewarding and positive...

CLEP Analyzing and Interpreting Literature Tutoring FAQ
If you are confident in your knowledge of literature and your ability to analyze texts in detail and with sophistication, taking the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) Exam in Analyzing and Interpreting Literature as a college-bound high school senior could help you earn college credit for an introductory literature course. The exam, however, spans an overwhelming amount of material, covering American, British, and translated works of prose, poetry, and drama from the classical period through the modern day. Students are expected to analyze the nuances of presented excerpts with subtlety and finesse, draw a wide variety of conclusions based on these details, and make use of the vocabulary specific to literary analysis.
As a result of its expansiveness, even students who have strong analytical skills and have succeeded in their previous English studies often need extensive preparation in order to confidently utilize their abilities on test day. Figuring out where to begin reviewing for such an exam can be extremely overwhelming, and impersonal study aids and general class-based review can do nothing to help a student address this material in a way that makes sense based on his or her previous instruction, strengths and weaknesses, and specific concerns.

This individualized approach gives you the flexibility to spend as much time as you need on areas you are still struggling with, while not wasting time on subject areas that you have already completely mastered.

Recent CLEP Analyzing and Interpreting Literature Tutoring Session Notes
We reviewed the student's most effective strategies in depth and reviewed the importance of using those strategies. He worked through a passage and answered questions about it. We talked about the fact that he will have tests on "off" days, but he has to try to work through such situations and remember to use his strategies so that he can still achieve a high score.
On Monday, I left the student with a practice section (25 minutes and 20 questions) and said we would go over it first thing today. After solving the questions he missed and teaching him a few tricks on his calculator to solve algebra equations and cube roots, we divided a math section into four small sections. I gave him about six minutes to do five questions, and then we checked them. After doing one section, we extrapolated his score and determined he would have gotten a 570 on the math section. That was an improvement from the last time we did this exercise. I left two practice tests with him, and we will start our next session by going over the topics he missed on these practice tests.
Today we started studying for the math exam. We went through Chapter 2 of the study book, which included shifting of graphs, conic sections, and polar coordinates. He has done most of it before but not for a long time, and he responded well to it. I assigned homework from that chapter, and a section from the beginning of the book that he should know.
We discussed the requirements for the programs the student is applying to, then we talked about the major categories of questions in reading comprehension. At the end of the session, we worked through a sample passage. The student is willing to learn and prefers to figure things out on her own.
The student and I finished working through the exponents, roots, and equations section in the SAT prep math workbook. Although she had some difficulty with the most difficult questions, she has a good grasp of the fundamentals. We also went over rational exponents from an Algebra 2 textbook. She struggled a little with this topic, so her homework is to redo some of these problems and compare her answers to the process that we have written down. We finished up by going through the lines, angles, and coordinates section of the SAT prep math workbook and beginning the triangles section of the workbook.
The student and I focused on math. We reviewed a previous test. We focused primarily on test-taking strategies. One powerful strategy that has helped is substituting numbers in for variables. Also, we talked about how to identify answers that are obviously incorrect and eliminating those from consideration.
