Award-Winning PRAXIS Tutors
serving Virginia Beach, VA

I have been coaching students to their best performance in math for seven years. I am fluent in all levels of math, primary, secondary, and freshman/sophomore university level. I am also fluent with the mathematics which one may find on the ACT, SAT, GRE, ASVAB, CLEP test and most standardized test. My background in Engineering also gives me a level of confidence with computer science and general sciences such as physics and chemistry. I have over a year of study in each myself. Overall, I have had much success working with students in various languages and levels of computer programming.

Andrea's ESL/TESOL certification and dual background in English Literature and Arabic make her especially useful for Praxis Core candidates who need intensive help with the reading and writing sections — she teaches language structure at a granular level. Her experience working with immigrant students adapting to U.S. curricula also means she understands the pedagogical reasoning questions that show up on education-focused subtests.

Certified in Math 7-12 in Connecticut, David has been through the Praxis gauntlet himself and knows which content areas carry the most weight on test day. He takes a strategic approach: identifying the specific subtests and question types a student struggles with, then drilling those areas with targeted practice rather than broad review. His 4.9 rating speaks to how well that focused method works under real testing conditions.

Passing the PRAXIS means knowing not just your content area but how to navigate the test's specific question formats and time constraints. Nicole tackled the PRAXIS herself on the way to earning her M.A. in Teaching from Western Kentucky University, so she can walk candidates through both the content review and the test-day strategy that makes a difference.

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.

Gabriela has run PRAXIS Core boot camps covering all three sections — Math, Reading, and Writing — so she knows exactly where aspiring teachers tend to lose points. Her Master's in Math Education and classroom teaching background mean she isn't just prepping someone for a test; she's coaching a future colleague through the specific question formats, time management traps, and content gaps that trip up education majors most often.

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.

I am an experienced educator with a strong background in biology, general science, and core academic subjects across elementary, middle, and high school levels. I specialize in helping students build confidence while mastering challenging material. I am approved to tutor all elementary and middle school core subjects, as well as high school science, English, and writing. I also provide targeted test preparation for the ACT, GED, ISEE, PSAT, SSAT, and TACHS, focusing on both content mastery and effective test-taking strategies. My teaching style is student-centered and adaptable. I tailor each session to the learner's needs, using clear explanations, guided practice, and structured support to break down complex concepts. I also create a positive, low-pressure environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and growing. My goal is to help students improve academically while becoming more confident, independent learners.

Holding teaching certifications in six different content areas, Ariana has personally navigated the PRAXIS testing process more than most educators ever will. She understands how each exam is structured — from the constructed-response scoring rubrics to the way questions test pedagogical knowledge alongside content mastery. That firsthand experience across English, social studies, French, psychology, health, and music makes her unusually versatile for candidates preparing for multiple PRAXIS exams.

The Praxis covers a broad sweep — reading, writing, and math on the Core, plus content-specific depth depending on your certification area. Prahith is a practicing classroom teacher who passed these exams himself and now pinpoints which content strands a candidate needs to shore up rather than grinding through full-length practice tests blindly. That targeted approach is why students rate him 5.0.

Having gone through teacher licensure at Vanderbilt herself, Karen knows the PRAXIS inside and out — not just the content, but the particular way questions are framed to test pedagogical reasoning. She breaks down each section's expectations so candidates spend their prep time on what the exam actually rewards.

As a certified social studies teacher who passed her own Praxis exams, Michelle knows firsthand what the test demands — from content-area knowledge to the constructed-response questions that catch many candidates off guard. She walks test-takers through targeted review strategies and practice question analysis tailored to their specific Praxis subject area.

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.

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.
