Owens Community College offers spring ACT Preparation Class, May 9 – June 6
Students preparing to take the national ACT test are encouraged to bring a pencil, paper and a calculator to Owens Community College as the academic institution offers a class titled “Building Confidence with ACT Prep” in May and June, 2011. The class is coordinated through the College’s Workforce and Community Services.
The ACT preparation class will occur Monday evenings, May 9 – June 6, from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the College’s Arrowhead Park Learning Center on Indian Wood Circle in Maumee.
During each of the four sessions, students will be tutored in all five sections of the ACT test. The actual ACT is comprised of one test in each of the following areas: English, math, reading, science reasoning and writing.
In addition to being tutored in these areas through one-on-one teaching, students will learn traditional testing strategies such as how to take a timed test and how to find the elusive answer to a difficult question. The ACT preparation class will not occur on Monday, May 30, in observance of Memorial Day.
Owens serves as a host site for the national ACT test. The next testing date after the ACT preparation class is June 11. Prior registration through the ACT organization is required.
Limited seating is available and early registration is recommended. For more information, or to register for the class, call (567) 661-7357 or 1-800-GO-OWENS, Ext. 7357.
