WHAT  IS  THE  QUESTION?

Kaaren “Katarina” Bock, Founder of What Is The Question? came to a realization:  doing well on exams requires three distinct skill sets.  

         The first is Area Knowledge (math, history, and so on).  

         The second is Test Taking Skills, which are separate from Area Knowledge.  

         And the third is having a Self Concept that includes
the capacity to do well on exams, and the confidence to do so.

         Our programs teach study skills, note taking,
test taking skills, and anxiety management skills.  

         Our abiding concerns are to convey the skills and attitudes
that make it possible to be a successful student.


         We don’t teach Area Knowledge.  
(Although we can provide guidance on
writing short answers and responding to essay questions.)

         We do teach how to learn, and how to show what you know when it counts.
Our name comes from
the first step in successfully solving any problem:  
Identify what is being asked.
