Yes I used to have test anxiety but I learned how to use my intuition and answer what I think is best and it usually works and I stopped doubting myself!

Yes one of my good friends has test anxiety. I notice it makes her think negatively about herself and study excessively. She feels guilty if she does something or fun or gives herself a break instead of studying. As a teacher I can help my students make a study plan.

Yes, it causes me to hyper focus on an exam and only study instead of doing other activities. Educators can support students with test anxiety by giving periodic no risk assessments for students to experience what kind of questions may be on an exam prior to taking it. I learned about the different physical attributes of test anxiety

I have test anxiety for only specific subjects. I just get anxious and have to go to the bathroom beforehand to calm myself down and make sure that if I am timed I make sure my timing is good. Educators can help by understanding that some kids may need more time. I learned that it needs to not be stigmatized

I’ve had students with test anxiety. We talk about making sure we are prepared for the exam. We can offer retest options is needed. Something new is encouraging students to try and not letting students avoid.
