COMMENTS BY FORMER STUDENTS

"The structure of the course, and the instruction offered by Ray were top notch. He is an expert on taking this exam, and grading work, and is able to break down this complicated subject for his students better than anyone I have encountered to date. Everyone in the class received personal attention and assistance, and I cannot sing his praises enough! The quality and depth this workshop covered far exceeded my expectations, and I will be sure to tell everyone I know how wonderful it was. I think this workshop helped me a hundred-fold in being prepared for the exam. Now I need to get back to studying!

"This course proved to be the deciding factor for me passing. As a project manager, I do grading plans quite often and people look to me for professional guidance. When I took your class, it became crystal clear that I was missing some key elements in my solutions. The practice vignettes in addition to the instructor's insight and experience was what I needed to pass."

“Its a bloody miracle! After 5 attempts, thousands of dollars and losing pounds of hair, I just found out that I passed my nemesis - Section E....and I owe it largely in part to your study session in San Francisco. Thanks to you I have now passed the LARE.”

“I passed multiple choice sections A, B, D, and Site Design section C the first time I took them. I will be taking Grading Section E for the first time in June. Thank you so much for all of your help and support throughout this process. I truly believe that I would not have even come close to passing if I had not taken your classes.”

“I am excited to let you know that I passed both sections C and E! I have no doubt that your review courses gave me the tools, momentum and confidence to pass. Your courses covered everything and more that was required to know on the exam. I would recommend anyone taking the test to avoid the anxiety and disappointment I felt after failing both sections in December to take your review course. I also want to thank you for your down to earth, supportive and "demystifying" approach to teaching the review courses.”
Mary Dewing, Modesto, CA, Apr 06

“Against all odds I passed the grading exam this time! I am so relieved and thankful that I found your class! No one offers the kind of class that you put so much work into--it is so valuable, I can't even tell you! Many thanks again from one happy camper in Michigan!“
Nannette Alton, Lansing, MI, Oct 07

“I have now successfully passed all 5 sections. I credit you and your courses for that, and appreciate all that you taught us.”
Troy Cook, SLC, UT, Apr 08

“Very good at reinforcing basic skills in preparation for the exam. Instructor is great at explanations in a very straightforward manner. I found the practice vignettes to be incredibly valuable and appreciated the overview of each vignette.”

“I just received the official letter from the State of Washington that I have passed Section C. Many thanks for the class! I could not have sorted out the program without all of your guidance.”
Wes Simmonds, Seattle, WA Apr 06

“Thank you for offering these classes...they are a great help in taking the test. I really think that the two (performance section) courses prepared me better than I ever could have done on my own.”
