Receive personally tailored PRAXIS lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations.
If you're getting ready to take the Praxis, contact Varsity Tutors to get set up with a Cleveland Praxis tutor. The Praxis evaluates a wide array of skills that you will need in order to become an effective teacher. The Praxis comes in a few different forms. If you take the test entitled Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators, you'll be tested on core academic subjects such as mathematics, reading, and writing. The exam entitled Praxis Elementary Education: Content Knowledge for Teaching focuses on the knowledge necessary to teach at the elementary school level. There are also Praxis Subject Assessments, which test you on specific subjects. The requirements to become a teacher vary from location to location, so you must do your due diligence in researching what is required of you. You can ask your Cleveland Praxis tutor for more information on this subject if you're still in the dark. Teaching can be a fun and rewarding profession that enables you to become a lifelong learner. However, there are some things that you'll need to learn before you can enter a classroom and begin teaching. Let's review some of the ways that Cleveland Praxis tutoring can enable you to prepare for the Praxis and equip you with the skills that you need to become a teacher.
What are the advantages of seeking out a Cleveland Praxis tutor near me?
One of the most convenient things about getting involved in Cleveland Praxis tutoring is that it's taken online. This means that you don't even have to leave your own house. Instead, you can access the Live Learning Platform from anywhere you like. This is an online platform that enables you to use a virtual whiteboard, speak with your private Praxis mentor through a video chat, and work in a shared document editor. In addition, your sessions are recorded, which means that you can go back and watch them whenever you want to review the material. If you like, you could also take part in the sessions from a library like the Shaker Heights Public Library. Working with a private Praxis mentor is valuable because it can help increase your confidence by getting you ready for test day. An instructor can also boost your self-esteem by showing you the progress that you've made.
Whenever you study any subject, it's useful to be able to move at a speed that is comfortable for you. While you might not get this in a regular school environment, here you can move through the material at your own pace. If you have mastered the material that you need to know for the writing portion of the core exam, you can jump forward to something else. If you're struggling with the math section and you'd like more practice on solving algebra problems, this is something that you can take some time to focus on. Also, your Praxis instructor can put together a specialized plan of study that takes your learning needs into account. This plan can provide you with a greater sense of structure in your studies, and you can use it to work toward your academic goals. This is valuable since having established goals can motivate you to keep moving forward in your studies.
Another useful feature of tutoring is that your instructor can adjust their teaching to fit your learning style. For instance, if you are a visual learner, your private Praxis mentor can help you make better use of flashcards and other visual materials. If you are an auditory learner, you and your instructor can have conversations with you about the material. Likewise, if you don't yet have a clear idea of what your learning style is, this is a great opportunity to figure that out. Not only can this knowledge serve you well in future courses, but having a solid understanding of learning styles can also benefit you as an educator.
What are some topics that a Cleveland Praxis tutor can help me review?
Cleveland Praxis tutors can assist you with any of the Praxis concepts that you're having a difficult time with, from geometry to the analysis of texts. In Cleveland Praxis tutoring, you can ask your instructor any questions that you have about the Praxis. If you're confused about how to interpret quantitative data in the statistics portion of the exam, Cleveland Praxis tutors can help you answer any questions that you have about that topic. By the same token, if you have questions about how to evaluate arguments on the reading section of the test, this is also something that your Praxis mentor can address. After all, you can't learn if you don't ask questions about the content.
You can also learn valuable test-taking strategies when you work with a Praxis instructor. For instance, they can show you ways of getting rid of incorrect choices on multiple-choice questions. Yet another valuable aspect of tutoring is that it enables you to receive feedback from your instructor as you work your way through the content. If you make a mistake, your Praxis mentor can correct you, show you why you're wrong, and get you back on the correct path. This is an excellent way to learn because it keeps you from developing bad habits that will trip you up on the exam. Your instructor can also help you get a better idea of the format of the particular exam that you plan on taking. This way, you'll have an idea of what to expect on exam day.
