I should first start by saying, I passed the Communication and Literacy MTEL. I have this book to thank for that too. It is very helpful and prepares you for how the questions will be set up on the real test. I highly recommend this for a useful study tool.
This book is nothing like the actual test layout (which is all reading passages and answering questions). I'm upset I wasted so much time on it since I should have just taken the practice tests online. If you need a review of concepts it is adequate but also contains many typos). Save the money and practice online.
I just took the MTEL Communication and Literacy tests today, so my review is based on how this book compares to the current MTEL test. This book is extremely basic. I started studying with this book and wondered how, if the test was THIS easy, anyone could fail the MTEL. I won't say this book didn't help, as it does contain some good information in terms of grammar, but there are also many errors. There's also information that isn't even needed for the test. I wouldn't recommend this guide to anyone taking the MTEL tests.
I needed a book to help me for the reading portion of the MTEL seeing how I did not pass the first time around. I finished reading over the reading portion of the book and I feel as if I wasted my time. I still do not feel prepared for my next try and the book didn't really help prepare for the sections in which I need to work on.
Great book! Perfect overview of actual exam. Only part missing was practice sentence corrections. Passages could be greater in length, like exam. Overall excellent tool for MTEL prep.
This book was terrific. I felt incredibly confident going into the exam after using this guide to help me study. I felt just as confident afterwards. What impressed me the most was the way this book broke down grammar rules and gave plenty of examples and brief test questions at the end of each section. Awesome! The book was a little less helpful in extrapelating and disecting essays, but only a bit. The MTEL exam itself was harder than the essay examples given in this book, but if you know this little bit of information, you can go out and supplement this book with another that has a greater focus on brief essay extrapelation and understanding. This quide is decent in this area, but I would still recommend an additional source. In short, this book was worth the money. I am living proof as I passed the exam. Good luck!
Used this as my study guide and passed the first time.. Took both practice tests in the book and did the practice test online
My girlfriend used this book to prepare for the MTEL exam and to be honest, she ended up buying another book after using this one. It helped, but there was only one set of review questions. It would have been much more valuable to have more than one practice test.
