Strong preparation requires access to the right tools. This section compiles study aids and candidate-facing resources to support teachers as they prepare for TExES certification assessments. It also includes teacher-facing resources that can be share directly with your teachers. Teacher-facing documents are labeled with a “TF” in their title.
Coaches and certification leads should share these materials intentionally, using candidate data to identify which resources will be most useful for each individual. A candidate who is off-track on a specific content area has different needs than one who is ready to take a practice exam or interpret a score report.
