I have scheduled an appointment with a local tester who tests kids for independent schools. I am not sure of his experience with gifted testing overall, but I think since he tests kids for entry to independent schools, a large percentage of these kids would be on the gifted end. How would I go about verifying the testers experience with gifted testing?
ALSO BECAUSE OF MY BACKGROUND< I am very concerned with social/emotional issues. DD6 is socially normal, but is sometimes inconsiderate of her peers who may not pick up on things as quickly as she does. For example, while out in the mall, DD6 is eager to read everything. What I have noticed is some of DD6�s friends do not pick up reading the same things and sometimes the parent�s of these kids feel like something is wrong with their kids since I obviously do not spend the same amount of time coaching/reviewing with DD6 since I am a full-time working single mom and most instances they are married working part-time or not at all.
Any suggestions on either end appreeciated.
