Review
"The most complete TExES 293 guide I've seen."
— Maria L. Estrada, M.Ed., Literacy Coordinator, Dallas ISD
This study guide doesn't just prepare teachers for the exam—it elevates their understanding of reading instruction. From foundational literacy development to comprehension strategies and state-specific legislation, every section is thoughtfully structured and clearly written. The answer explanations are exceptional, making it easy to identify weak areas and truly learn from mistakes. A must-have for any serious candidate.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"An educator's blueprint for passing with confidence."
— James R. Callahan, TExES Prep Instructor & Education Consultant
As someone who has coached hundreds of preservice teachers, I can confidently say this is the best resource for mastering the Science of Teaching Reading (293) exam. Dr. Mitchell combines deep knowledge with practical insight. The balance between theory and application is unmatched. The included full-length tests are highly reflective of the real exam—and the clarity of the explanations is a game changer.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"A professional-grade prep book that respects the reader."
— Latoya Bennett, Bilingual Reading Specialist, Houston, TX
Many test prep books talk down to readers. This one does the opposite—it empowers. Dr. Mitchell respects the intelligence and dedication of future educators and offers a guide that is both challenging and encouraging. The sections on dyslexia policy and instructional planning are especially timely. I will be recommending this book to all my certification students.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Passionate, practical, and perfectly aligned to the exam."
— Kevin H. Alvarez, Assistant Professor of Reading Education, Texas State University
From the first chapter, it's clear this guide was written by someone who understands both pedagogy and the pressure of high-stakes testing. The language is direct, the strategies are effective, and the layout is easy to navigate. The glossary, legislation summary, and test-day tips are excellent add-ons that round out an already exceptional book.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Built for Texas educators, by someone who gets it."
— Rachel Mendez, Academic Coach & Curriculum Writer, San Antonio
So many prep books feel generic. This one is different. Every page feels like it was crafted with Texas classrooms in mind. From TEKS alignment to STAAR-relevant practices, the focus stays grounded in what real teachers need. The scenario-based questions in particular are great for understanding how theory applies in daily instruction. Dr. Mitchell nailed it.
From the Author
My background includes over 15 years of teaching experience in literacy development, teacher training, and curriculum design across a variety of educational settings. Through my work, I've had the privilege of mentoring hundreds of preservice teachers, many of whom were navigating the complex requirements of licensure examinations while balancing real-world teaching experiences and responsibilities. I've seen firsthand how overwhelming certification prep can be. There's often a gap between what's being tested and what educators need to know to truly serve their students—and my goal was to bridge that gap.
This guide is not a recycled summary of standards. It's a purposefully built, educator-informed toolkit designed around what I call the Four Pillars of Practical Mastery:
- Understanding Pedagogical Foundations - Every concept in this book is grounded in sound reading research. The pedagogy section doesn't just define instructional strategies; it breaks them down with examples you can visualize in a real classroom.
- Application Over Memorization - The structure of our practice questions, case studies, and scenario-based drills are intentionally crafted to mimic the TExES 293 exam format. But more importantly, they help you apply what you've learned in practical, meaningful ways.
- Full Context for Every Answer - Every question in this book is followed by a detailed explanation—explaining not just why the right answer is correct, but why the other options are not. This is how true mastery is built: through understanding, not just guessing.
- Support for the Whole Educator - Preparing for certification is both academic and emotional. That's why we included planning guides, mindset strategies, and tips to help you manage anxiety, focus under pressure, and prepare confidently.
As someone who's written extensively on literacy intervention, foundational reading instruction, and teacher performance readiness, I can confidently say this guide stands apart from others in its category. Previous books I've authored have focused more on theoretical frameworks or classroom management techniques, but this work takes on a uniquely urgent mission: to prepare future Texas educators for a pivotal exam that shapes how they will impact students' reading journeys for years to come.
What also makes this book different is our incorporation of real-world classroom scenarios, especially as they relate to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), dyslexia legislation, and multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS). These aren't just "good to know" terms—they are realities that Texas teachers will face head-on in public, charter, and even private schools across the state. By preparing you for both the test and the teaching responsibilities that follow, we believe this book serves as both a certification tool and a professional development resource.
Throughout the development of this book under the MindCraft Learning brand, our team worked closely with subject-matter experts, reading specialists, test-prep analysts, and credentialed Texas educators. Every page has been reviewed for accuracy, alignment to the TExES framework, and, most importantly, for usefulness in the field.
I wrote this with the knowledge that many of you are not just preparing for a test—you're preparing for a life in education. Whether you're transitioning from another career, coming fresh out of an education program, or returning to teaching after a break, this book was written with your path in mind.
If I can leave you with one message, it is this: You are more capable than you think. This book is not a shortcut, but a structured path that walks alongside you as you prepare. Every explanation, every strategy, every practice scenario was designed to help you think like an expert, teach like a professional, and pass this exam with integrity and purpose.
Thank you for trusting me and MindCraft Learning as part of your journey. Your dedication to mastering the science of teaching reading will pay dividends in the lives of your future students. You're not just studying to pass—you're studying to lead.
