Abstract
Licensure exams have become one of the most important factors in teacher certification. Test-takers often are presented with obstacles as they attempt to pass the licensure exam, such as discrepancies between test format and best practices in the classroom, lack of sufficient practice for productive skills sections of the exam, and ignorance of test-taking strategies. This article addresses ways to overcome these obstacles and proven strategies to enhance performance on licensure exams. In addition, the article addresses the need for the entire profession to become involved in the preparation of students for licensure exams, including guidance in locating resources and encouraging study abroad.
