Reading, writing, and math preparation for CAEC

The CAEC test has five parts: reading, writing, math, social studies, and science. At PTP, we help you improve the foundational reading, writing, and math skills you’ll need to write the test.

Work on your basics

Our staff will work with you on your foundational reading, writing, and math skills. At your intake assessment, we talk about your goals and identify your strengths and weaknesses. Our experienced instructors will work with you to improve in the areas where you need the most help.
