Welcome to DanaRamsey.com!
 
Are you looking for professional educational testing, teaching and tutoring combined with the warmth and understanding that a seasoned home schooling mom can bring?
 
 
Based in Columbus, Ohio, I offer academic testing using the nationally normed and standardized Woodcock-Johnson III Tests of Achievement.  Additionally, private mathematics tutoring and enrichment, as well as small group hands-on math classes, are available in a relaxed, pressure-free environment.
 
 
In addition to being a duly authorized W-J III Achievement Test administrator with hundreds of individual tests given to kids of all ages, I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Applied Mathematics and Teaching of Mathematics grades 6 - 12.  My ongoing professional development--designed to keep my skills cutting edge--includes coursework in teaching the elementary aged child, problem based approaches, using manipulatives for the kinesthetic and concrete learners, and holistic approaches such as teaching math through art.   I have more than a decade of teaching and tutoring experience in individual and institutional, public and private settings with all ages pre-K through grade 12.  Moreover, I've taught my own three kids since their birth.  I can relate to you as a parent and to your child, coming alongside your family to help you achieve the goals you've set forth for your kids.
 
HERE are what some of my satisfied clients have had to say.  I look forward to you becoming one of them! 
 
Warmly, 
Dana Ramsey 

How old must my child be in order to be tested?
I can test children ages 2 and up (as well as adults up to age 90.)

May I bring other children with me to the test?
Yes, but no children may remain in the same room as the child being tested as they may be a distraction. I have a play area available with many toys and books.

Do you report scores to my local school district?
No. I do not report your child’s scores to anyone but you. I keep all test scores strictly confidential. I will sign a copy of the test scores which you may choose to mail to your local school district. The W-J III Tests of Achievement meets the requirements of a nationally normed, standardized test as set forth in the Ohio Administrative Code.

Will testing before the end of the school year negatively affect my child’s scores?
No. The test results are calculated according to the time of year the test is taken.

How can I help my child prepare for the test?
Be sure he or she is well rested, adequately fed, and try to maintain a relaxed atmosphere the day of the test.

What should I bring?
I will provide all materials your child needs for the test.
