Description
Florida teachers have the option to take the FTCE Reading K-12 test in place of the 300 hours or professional learning courses for the required reading endorsement. Master the FTCE Reading K-12 test prep course has instruction and practice questions on all 9 competencies and 44 skills needed to pass this test. Each competency and skill has been thoroughly researched. They are explained in detail, with practice questions and answer explanations. By taking and passing the FTCE Reading K-12 Exam, teachers will have a professional reading endorsement to a current Florida teaching certificate.
As a hard working teacher who has been through the certification process, I was tired of seeing test prep companies charge high prices for online courses with limited access, so I created this course with unlimited, forever access at a reasonable price. If you would like to have this course in paper format, consider getting the companion book, Master the FTCE Reading K-12, which includes the same instruction, PLUS a full, 120-question practice test with detailed answer explanations, and 175 flash cards for the same price. Find the Master the FTCE Reading K-12 companion book on Amazon and on my website, elainechandler(dot)com. Just look for the orange and blue cover!
I wish you the very best in passing this test!
Who this course is for:
- All Florida Teachers
- Teachers who need the Reading Endorsement add-on to their professional teaching certificate
- Teachers who want Reading Certification as a separate professional certification
- Teachers in grades K-12
Instructor
I hold a Master of Science Degree in Literacy Education, as well as a Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education, a Bachelor of Science Degree in Health Care Management, and an Associate Degree in Respiratory Therapy. I started out working as a Respiratory Therapist, and was subsequently invited to teach a college-level clinical course where I supervised and taught preservice respiratory students in the Intensive Care Units of three local hospitals.
That’s where I found my love of teaching.
Then one of my children was diagnosed with the learning disability of dyslexia, and I transitioned to school education, completing my education degrees. I taught elementary students, and preservice teachers at the college level. I also helped an underfunded school obtain 5,000 books for their school library and directed 125 volunteer reading tutors over three years, increasing the school’s reading scores from 11% to 43% passing rate on state assessments.
From there, I spent the next 16 years working for global education publishers, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and McGraw Hill as a reading and math consultant and trainer. In these roles, I have created, presented, and trained on-site and online programs for reading, math, and social-emotional learning to students, teachers, conferences, and colleges.
