If you're getting ready to take the Praxis test, you may benefit from a Columbus Praxis prep course. The educational consultants at Varsity Tutors can help you find a course that's right for your needs. Whether you're studying at Ohio State University, Capital University, or any other school in the Columbus area, you've undoubtedly put plenty of time, effort, and expense into your education to have made it this far. A Columbus Praxis course will give you access to a professional Praxis test instructor who can provide you with guided review sessions that may be just what you need to bring all your hard work to fruition by pursuing your goal of teaching certification.
What sorts of content material will I encounter in a Columbus Praxis class?
The Praxis test comes in a variety of forms, depending on your state's licensing rulings and your current level of education. The Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators, or Praxis Core test, is usually taken by those who are seeking to enter a teacher preparation program and gauges your skill in Reading, Writing, and Mathematics. You'll be tested on your ability to compose arguments, analyze texts, perform math operations, and complete other similar tasks. The three subjects are broken up into three separate tests, which you'll be able to take either in a single stretch or over the course of several days.
If you're looking to be licensed in a specific content area, you may be interested in taking a Praxis Subject Assessment. These exams cover not only general knowledge and pedagogical skill, but also will evaluate your understanding of subject-specific content. These tests don't follow a single format, as they differ depending on what subject you'd like to be licensed in, but generally, you'll have to answer multiple-choice and essay questions on the topic at hand. The Principles of Learning and Teaching Tests fall under this category as well. These tests intend to measure your general teaching ability at one of four specific grade levels: Early Childhood, the K-6 grades, grades 5-9, and grades 7-12. There is also a Praxis Elementary Education: Content Knowledge for Teaching test that combines some of both of these test types, by assessing both your subject knowledge and your elementary school-specific pedagogical skills.
How can a Columbus Praxis course assist me in studying?
When you enroll in a Columbus Praxis class, you'll gain access to a virtual classroom where you'll be led in review sessions by an experienced Praxis test prep teacher. Through the use of video chat technology, you'll be able to see and speak with your instructor and classmates, so it can feel just like a traditional classroom. You can participate in teacher-led review sessions, and your instructor may choose to break the class up into discussion groups so you can get to know the material alongside your peers. Collaborative study of this kind has been demonstrated to enhance the abilities of students to both acquire information and hold on to that information in the long run. Working with other prospective teachers can be a great way to come to know a range of diverse perspectives on education, which may reinvigorate your understanding of pedagogy. And by sharing your own knowledge with the class, you can reinforce your existing proficiency. You'll also be able to request one-on-one review time with your instructor, so if you're struggling with a particularly challenging topic, you can spend a bit of extra time getting back up to speed.
There are plenty of logistical advantages to an online course. Since you'll be able to get to your Columbus Praxis course from any location where you have access to the internet, you'll have a lot of flexibility in how you choose to study. You'll be able to take control of your own study space, so you can attend your course from a place that you find comfortable, productive, and distraction-free. And as you won't have to commute, you can squeeze a course into a busy day or free up more time for Praxis prep. There are many course meeting times available, so even if you have a particularly demanding schedule, you can find a course that's effective for your lifestyle.
How can I get enrolled?

You can get into a course quickly, as new course sections are starting every month.

...to break difficult topics into simple components, and I am able to guide students in making connections. I am especially effective at working with students who feel they are "math challenged." I have been working one-on-one with students for the past ten years, both as a college instructor and as a private tutor. Helping students gain confidence in themselves and their ability to think mathematically is both my passion and my purpose.... My philosophy of teaching can be compared to a cord plugged into an outlet. I view the successful student as a three-pronged plug. Students will have maximum learning gains when they have a connection with: 1) the material, 2) the instructor, and 3) their own learning. My job is to facilitate this connection.
