"I am very pleased with the online course as it has allowed me to gain additional skills for my upcoming test. I find that it has been an effective resource for me."

"Longsdale Publishing's ILTS TAP preparation program was the most effective tool I used to prepare for my ILTS exam. The program gave me a clear understanding of what type of material would be on the exam as well as an explanation for all of my incorrect answers. A very thorough and comprehensive study guide."

"In making a career change from a municipal investment banker to a school business official, I had to take the IL TAP 400 test to complete my licensure. It had been nearly 25 years since I had to compute the volume of a cylinder and the Pythagorean theorem. I took the test in March utilizing only the state booklet and one online test. I only passed two parts and needed help with the Language Arts and Math sections. Longsdale Publishing's system really help me to gain confidence going into the second testing session. I went through all the tutorials and then took all 4 tests in each section. The more I practiced the better I got and on testing day I PASSED! I would highly recommend Longsdale's process to prepare for the IL TAP 400. I wish I had known about it the first time I tested."

"I have found that your program was very helpful in the writing portion of the Tap test. It allowed me to understand what Longsdale Publishing and the professionals behind grading the tests are looking for in the writing process of the test. I liked that the response was only one to two days after I submitted my paper. This allowed me to get my paper reviewed by a professor and by your program. In the response you gave me positive reinforcement and what I needed to work on to be a better writer and to create a better paper. Thank you for all the help and I feel like I am now better prepared for my ILTS Tap test."

"After being out of school for 23 years, Longsdale's website has given me the tools I need to prepare for the TAP exam. I love the feedback given after the practice exams and the essay review component. So glad this site was recommended by the school."

"Your program has made a distinct difference in our efforts."

"We have found the TAP practice materials to be very beneficial. Our candidates have improved their scores after using the Longsdale subarea practice tests; the more practice tests they took and time invested, the greater the margin of improvement. One of our candidates went from a 217 to a 300 after using the Longdale materials - it was a happy day for her!"

"The ILTS-Basic Skills online preparation materials and practice tests helped me a great deal when studying for the exam. One aspect of the program that I found very beneficial was the ability to type an essay and send it in to Longsdale publishing to be read and graded. The feedback was helpful and it made me that much more confident for the test."

"The ILTS-Basic Skills course helped to alleviate my anxiety about taking the TAP. After working through the online course, I knew exactly what material I would encounter on the day of the test. The program outlines each proficiency standard with detailed explanations and examples. After passing, I attribute my success to this course and would recommend Longsdale to a friend. If you thoroughly work through this course, you will pass!"

"I was worried about taking the Basic Skills test. The biggest reason for this was that my first language is not English. However, with the help of the ILTS Online course, I was able to pass the test. What makes this program stand out from other programs is the feedback that is received for a writing sample and the twelve practice tests. I passed and so can you!"

"The rigorous standards required to pass the ILTS Basic Skills Test can be frightening. With success rates down, students often find themselves looking for sufficient material to prepare for the test. I was very fortunate to have found the Longsdale Publishing program. Longsdale gave me exactly what I needed to successfully pass the test. The reading material is thorough and useful in helping to prepare for the actual test and the practice tests are quite similar to those that one will encounter taking the real test. I could not recommend this program any higher. I can say that because of it I passed the test!"

"The ILTS-Basic Skills online course and practice tests helped me prepare for the Basic Skill Test. The course outlines each section in extensive detail. By practicing a few hours a day, I was able to drastically increase my scores on the practice tests."

"The ILTS on-line course was awesome. I took the Basic Skills Test and the Principal Exam here in Illinois on the same day. Approximately 10 hours of testing, and I passed both with flying colors. I attribute my success on the basic skills test, to not only the great course, but your great customer service. I have recommended the course over and over to others who are trying to pass the basic skills course. Thank you so much for your help, and thank ILTS On-line Course for a great product."
