Award-Winning PRAXIS Tutors
serving Tampa, FL

Education has always been at the center of my life. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering from Georgia Tech, then went on to study Mathematics at the graduate level at the University of South Florida. Later, I completed a degree in Educational Leadership, which allowed me to combine my love for teaching with strong expertise in tutoring for exams such as the PRAXIS and FTCE. I began tutoring many years ago, and it quickly became one of the great joys of my career. I truly love everything about schoollearning, teaching, and being part of the academic journey. As a high school math teacher, I taught a wide range of subjects, from Algebra to AP Calculus, and I've carried that same versatility into my tutoring work. My goal is always to break down difficult concepts into clear, understandable lessons while keeping students engaged, confident, and never overwhelmed. Beyond teaching content, I focus on building strong connections with my students. I believe that when a student feels comfortable asking questions and isn't afraid to say, "I don't understand," real learning happens. I create a relaxed, encouraging atmosphere that fosters curiosity and growth. Over time, I've also developed a wealth of test-taking strategies, which I share as needed to help students manage anxiety and approach exams with confidence. The greatest reward for me is seeing my students succeednot just in mastering the material, but in gaining confidence in themselves as learners. Many of my students have told me how much easier math feels after working together, and I'm proud to have earned nearly perfect ratings throughout my years of tutoring. At the heart of everything I do is a love of learning and a passion for helping others discover it too. Tutoring is not just my profession it's my calling, and I am grateful for every opportunity to make a difference in a student's academic journey.

A biology degree plus a 33 ACT and 1500 SAT mean Kaitlyn already has strong command of the science, math, and reading content that anchors the Praxis Core and many subject-area subtests. She teaches across all three core domains and uses her own test-taking instincts to show candidates how to read ETS question stems carefully and eliminate trap answers quickly. Rated 4.8 by students.

I am listening to and learning about him or her as an individual. I can also discover what motivates the student during this conversation and plan for how to frame future tutoring sessions in terms of what the student already knows and enjoys.

The Praxis exams test both content mastery and the ability to apply knowledge in classroom-relevant scenarios, which means rote review alone rarely gets candidates across the passing threshold. Emily, who holds a doctorate and has extensive experience with standardized professional exams in her own field, walks test-takers through targeted content review and question-analysis strategies specific to their Praxis subject area.

Mati's background spans counseling, special education, and published writing — which means she's lived the content that shows up across multiple PRAXIS exams rather than just studying it for a test. She breaks down each section's question patterns and teaches targeted strategies for the selected-response and constructed-response formats that trip up most test-takers.

Jennifer's social sciences degree and broad teaching range across reading, writing, math, and elementary content give her solid coverage of the Praxis Core Academic Skills domains — particularly the reading comprehension and essay sections where candidates often underestimate the scoring rubric. She walks test-takers through ETS's specific expectations for constructed responses and teaches them to budget time across question types so nothing gets rushed at the end. Rated 4.9 by students.

The PRAXIS tests future teachers on both content mastery and pedagogical reasoning, and Peter has lived both sides — he holds a master's in English Education and a journalism degree that sharpens his reading and writing instruction. He digs into the constructed-response sections especially, teaching test-takers how to structure answers that hit every scoring rubric criterion.

As a licensed secondary education teacher who has navigated the certification process himself, Lee knows the PRAXIS inside and out — both the content knowledge sections and the timed, multiple-choice format that catches many test-takers off guard. He builds targeted review plans based on diagnostic results so candidates spend their prep time on actual weak spots rather than re-studying material they already know.

Speech Language Pathology majors face a unique version of the Praxis — the SLP-specific subtest requires command of language acquisition, phonology, and clinical terminology that most general tutors can't touch. Megan is studying SLP at Northeastern right now, so the content is fresh and actively in her coursework. Her 33 ACT and 1540 SAT also mean she can support candidates tackling the Core Academic Skills sections in reading, writing, and math.

Preparing for the Praxis means juggling reading comprehension, writing, and math content all at once, which can feel overwhelming without a clear plan. Renae earned her Master of Arts in Teaching and has firsthand experience with the exam's format, so she breaks prep into targeted skill areas — from crafting argumentative essays under time pressure to tackling quantitative reasoning questions efficiently.

Elizabeth's political science degree and 32 ACT give her strong footing in the reading, writing, and analytical reasoning domains that anchor the Praxis Core — and her broad teaching range across English, math, social studies, and grammar means she can pivot quickly between content areas during prep sessions. She zeroes in on the constructed-response sections where many candidates lose points by misreading what ETS's rubric actually rewards.

I have over 9 years of experience tutoring students preparing for teacher certification exams and hold degrees in English and Education, as well as a technical writing certification. I enjoy helping students strengthen their reading comprehension so they can break down test questions and avoid common multiple-choice mistakes. I also guide students in using exam specifications to study strategically and focus on what is most likely to appear on the test. My goal is to help every student feel confident, prepared, and calm on test day. I would love to help you achieve success.

Studying for the Praxis while also completing her own teaching program gives Ayesha a sharp, current perspective on what the exam actually tests — from reading and language arts pedagogy to mathematics content knowledge. She walks through each section's question logic and pinpoints the content gaps that cost the most points, so prep time is spent efficiently.

Scoring a 33 on the ACT gave Kjirsten firsthand experience with the kind of timed, high-stakes testing the PRAXIS demands. She breaks down each section's question patterns and teaches targeted strategies for eliminating answer choices under time pressure. Her own successful PRAXIS preparation means she knows exactly where education candidates tend to lose points.

The PRAXIS covers a lot of ground, and Erin's own education background gives her firsthand familiarity with the pedagogy and content knowledge the exam tests. She zeroes in on the areas where a student's practice scores are weakest — whether that's reading comprehension, math reasoning, or writing — and builds targeted review sessions around those gaps.
