 Hello everybody, Andrea here with Dental L. So some common questions I get from students asking me about the Dental Assisting Board Exam Prep Academy. So I've been tutoring now for about 15 years. I was a dental assistant. I became a dental hygienist, a restorative hygienist, and now I have my own mobile practice. But I get a lot of questions of how long have you been tutoring? How does that work? So let me kind of tell you guys about that a little bit. So as I mentioned, I've been tutoring for 15 years and tutoring is all done online. So once you sign up for any one of my courses, you get full access right away. So you get full access to your login password area and then you can easily view all of the files any time. And for the Dental Assisting Board Exam Prep Course, you have full access to all of the materials until you pass within reason. If you sign up for the course and you plan to take the board exam five years later, then things might change by then. There will probably be more added. You get the idea. But within reason, you have full access until you pass. All of the materials are online, so you can view anything any time. You can open up the files using your computer, your Mac, your text, or sorry, your textbook, your iPad, your cell phone, whatever you want to use that way. The materials are a version of PowerPoints. Some of them are PDF files, but most of them are PowerPoints. I want to say 90% of them are PowerPoints, but you also have lectures where I'm teaching you just like I'm doing now. So you have video lectures. They are in a private folder on YouTube that you have full access to, which is fantastic. So you can, again, you can open that up any time, listen to it any time. So there's no hindrance that way. And the nice thing is, too, is we meet online one to two times a month and do a tutoring topic. So we do a topic for the board exam where I teach you guys critical thinking, because we all know critical thinking is a must. This is what you need to pass the board exam. It's one thing to answer very simple questions using mock exams, but you need to be able to answer different types of questions in different ways. So that's where critical thinking comes in. So when we meet online, you can see me. You can hear me kind of like we are now, but I can't see you and I can't hear you. So you don't have to worry about that. A lot of students do ask me like, oh, can you see me? I don't feel comfortable answering questions with other students. You know, it's so easy. You can't, nobody can see you. You can't see anybody. If you have a question, you just let me know. Or you can also type in a chat box that I do have as part of our live session. So it's really, really easy. And we meet online and talk about critical thinking questions. So we go through mock exam topics where two answers are always the correct answers, but I help you guys and help you guys practice pick the best answers. So they are so helpful. Plus, being a part of the Dental Assisting Board Exam Prep Academy, you have full access to all previous lectures for the past two years, not three, four, or five years because they have been outdated by now. So that's why you have full access to the past two years. Plus, if I gave you guys access to everything, you would get very overwhelmed very easily. So you get full access to all our live recorded sessions for two years. So let's say today you want to learn about oral pathology. All you have to do is go inside the course, look under your oral pathology module. You will see PowerPoints. You will see me teaching you lectures. Or you will also see our live session recordings where I go over mock exams, case studies, and critical thinking. So see how you have a nice little variety there because variety is the spice of life. You don't want to just study from your textbook for hours. That's boring. You will get bored. You will get upset. You won't study. Inside my course, the Board Exam Prep Academy, you get all different variations. Plus, you also get full access to a private group that we have for students only on Facebook. So you can form study groups with them. You can meet new students. That's where I kind of put on all of my updates as well is through that private Facebook group. So you have full access to me anytime. You can leave me a message at 2 a.m. and I will answer you. If I'm sleeping, I won't answer you. But as soon as I get to that message, then I will answer you. So you have full access to me anytime. So that's how the Dental Assisting Board Exam Prep Academy works. I'm going to show you guys actually inside the course right now. So I'm just going to stop this for one moment just to show you and I'll be right back. Okay, sorry guys. I had some technical difficulties here. So here is inside the Dental Assisting Board Exam Prep Academy just so you guys can kind of see how things are laid out. So you get full access to this right away. Typically, as soon as you log in, it will look like this. You can see all of the different options down here. But I like to tell students to click up the three bars here and then you will see the table of content. So kind of like a textbook where you have table of contents, you can pick a chapter. So let's say you want to read infection control. That's always fun. Let's say you want to look in histology and microbiology today. So you would click on that. It will load here and then you have the option to download it to your computer. And I like to do that because you guys have paid for it. You have full access. So then your PowerPoint opens up on your computer somewhere. You just click that and then it takes a couple seconds because my computer is a bit slow today. But then it will pop up. This is a larger PowerPoint actually. So it might take a couple of minutes. And that's only because my computer is really slow. So just as an example, you guys, so it pops up like this. You get full access. This is actually a mock exam that I happen to pop up. But you get full access to everything right away. And you can see everything here. So you see how that works. So I try to make it as simple as possible. The lectures that I teach you guys, our live tutoring sessions, those are inside our private group on Facebook. So then that way you can search per topic and search per lecture. So that's even easier. But as you guys can see, there's modules here. And then you would pick the file that you want to open. And then going down here, I have added here for you, like all of our lectures in one place as well if you needed it. Now actually today, I'm going through some updates inside the course. So depending on when you're watching this video, things might look a little bit different when you go to log in. But the basis is there. You get full access to everything right away. And then that way you can see everything. You can take your time, learn at your own pace. You have full access to it until you pass the exam. You get access to our lectures, materials, mock exams, case studies, everything. I have it everything right there for you to make it really, really easy. So if you guys have any questions, please let me know. I'm so happy to help. Happy studying and I'll see you guys in the next video.
