If you are planning to take the Praxis, Varsity Tutors can provide you with a Syracuse Praxis course that you can study online. The Praxis is just one of the many tests that may be required by schools and licensing organizations if you want to enter the teaching profession. It measures your academic skills and subject-specific knowledge appropriate to the subject and grade level that you want to teach. Many aspiring teachers who want to enter teaching preparation programs in schools like Syracuse University are also looking for innovative and cost-effective ways to prepare for their Praxis. With the Syracuse Praxis prep course, you can complete your Praxis test prep online and study in a distraction-free, comfortable environment.
What are some of the topics a Syracuse Praxis class can cover?
The Praxis is a computer-based test administered by Educational Testing Service (ETS). It is made up of three major assessment categories namely Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators (Core), Praxis Subject Assessments, and Praxis Content Knowledge for Teaching Assessments (CKT).
The Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators (Core) has a reading, math, and writing test that can be taken individually on separate days or as one combined exam. This test is aimed at candidates who would like to enter a teacher preparation program. The Praxis Subject Assessments determine subject-specific knowledge and teaching skills for those who want to teach K-12 subjects. There are two groups of tests under this assessment: Subject Assessments, which tests your general and subject-specific teaching skills and knowledge, and the Principles of Learning and Teaching (PLT) Tests, which tests general pedagogical knowledge at one of four grade level ranges: Early Childhood, K-6, 5-9 and 7-12. The third assessment, CKT, is for those who would like to focus on elementary school teaching and covers subjects like reading and language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies.
In your Syracuse Praxis class, your instructor can guide you through a comprehensive review of the topics and types of questions for each assessment. Aside from the exam content, your instructor can also share test-taking techniques and help you practice study habits that can help you process and internalize information more effectively and raise the quality of your study.
What are the advantages of enrolling in a Syracuse Praxis course?
Studying with the guidance of expert Praxis instructors can have a big difference in the quality of your test prep. The course is led by expert instructors, so if you encounter confusing concepts throughout your review, you have mentors you can turn to for your questions. They can give you immediate and relevant answers, which can save you lots of time and effort compared to looking up the answers on your own.
Unlike other courses that may require you to go to a physical location, the Praxis course with Varsity Tutors can be completed entirely online. This makes it absolutely convenient to study since you don't have to commute or worry about being late. You can study in the comfort of your home, invest more hours in study, and have more options when it comes to choosing what time you want to study. You can enroll in our morning or evening courses, or even take a course during the afternoon. There are also weekend courses for those who already have a full schedule on weekdays.
Even if the class is online, you will still be able to ask your instructor questions since classes are taught live in our virtual classroom via video chat. You can also easily follow the lecture or discussion by referring to the online whiteboard. You can work on practice questions individually or your instructor can also group you with other students as if you were studying in a regular, physical classroom. Learning together with a group can be a good way to break the monotony in your study, and you can also fill in learning gaps by listening to the perspectives of other aspiring teachers.
If you do need extra help understanding teaching concepts or any topic in the test, you also have the option to meet your instructor one-on-one outside the online class. This customized and personalized attention ensures that you have many avenues to success in your Praxis review.

It is more important that students learn how to solve problems rather than just memorizing facts or formulas. All students are smart in their own way and, teaching should be catered to how students best understand. Ultimately students should understand why what they are learning is important.

David: Syracuse PRAXIS course instructor
A tutor or teacher can offer information or ideas. Cooperation with the student is required for learning to occur. I have taught in many environments from basketball coach to snowboard instructor. My education is taking me toward becoming a Math teacher. I look forward to the interactions where I can help students engage with the academic material ... Small goals and recognition of accomplishments are a useful to maintaining motivation.... Learning is rarely independent. We rely on books, teachers, tutors, and the Internet. I believe that the goal is to become a resourceful learner. When a student knows how to seek information, he or she will feel independent and empowered.
