Hello, my friends! Last week I was teaching the most important reading concept to my students, and they told me that I need to create a video about it so they could practice. What is it.......

In this week's video, I teach you about main idea, the purpose, and key points to remember. Of course, we will practice! We review main ideas of a...

Hello, my friends! When I was a kid, I remember that dreaded feeling in my stomach when it was "back to school."

Now, I am actually thrilled for the first day of school. I don't have that dread and fear, but instead I'm...

Hello, my friends! Honestly, the GED/HiSET science test is mostly reading and critical reasoning. In other words, if you do well on the social studies and reading/RLA, you will likely do well on the science! 🤗 That said..... there are some science questions that you just need to know! My recent video covers topics such as earth and space science, chemistry, biology, and physical science. I go over science questions that cannot be figured out just by reading a passage. These are concepts that...
