PRAXIS Core Math Tutoring FAQ
If you want to be a licensed math teacher, you're going to need to take several Praxis Math exams. The Praxis exams are designed to ensure that prospective teachers have the content knowledge and academic skills necessary to do their jobs. If you need help preparing for one or more exams, Varsity Tutors can refer you to an experienced Praxis Math tutor to guide your studies.
Here are some of the tests you may prepare for during Praxis math tutoring sessions:
Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators - Mathematics
Each of these has a unique format and rubric, so let's look at the general Mathematics: Content Knowledge test as an illustrative example. It's a computer-based test consisting of 60 questions (including multiple-choice, choosing items from a list, and fill-in-the-blank) over 150 minutes. Two-thirds of the questions deal with content commonly covered in Algebra II (Algebra, Trigonometry, Logarithms, Functions), while the remaining third encompasses college-level concepts such as discrete mathematics and calculus.
A Praxis Math tutor can adapt their study sessions to your needs. If you don't remember the math you studied in high school that well, your sessions may review it until it clicks again. Any questions you have can be answered in a timely manner, allowing you to seek assistance before you start feeling overwhelmed. If you need additional practice problems on a very specific concept, your tutor can provide additional ones until you're more confident. Your tutor may incorporate your hobbies into Praxis Math tutoring sessions to make them more engaging.
Practice exams are also a significant component of Praxis Math prep. If you know exactly what the time allotted to you feels like, you can more effectively budget your time on test day. Likewise, practice exams help you get accustomed to the exam's interface. Graphing calculators are tough enough to manipulate when you have a physical one, so adapting to a virtual one may take a few tries.
