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.

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.

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.

Preparing for the Praxis means juggling content review with test strategy, and the balance shifts depending on which exam you're taking. As a high school teacher with a Master's in Curriculum and Instruction, Marion has been on both sides of the certification process and knows which content areas the exams weight most heavily. She zeroes in on the pedagogy and subject-knowledge questions that trip up first-time test-takers.

I am a certified biology and social studies teacher for grades 7-12. My time teaching has been both rewarding and challenging. One of my focuses as a lead science teacher was to work with students on college readiness. From ACT prep to rigorous lab based science instruction, we saw students grow five points on the ACT and increased the pass rate on the state exam. As my time with Teach for America comes to an end, I am excited to continue my commitment to education with Varsity Tutors. Currently I am working on a Master’s in Public Health at Emory University.

Preparing for the Praxis means mastering both content knowledge and the specific question formats ETS uses to test it. Rachel has been through the certification process herself and understands how the exam connects to real classroom competencies in reading, math, and pedagogy. She zeroes in on the areas where a test-taker's content gaps overlap with the highest-frequency question types, making study time more efficient.

Preparing for the Praxis means mastering both content knowledge and the specific way ETS frames questions, and Elizabeth's own path through education credentialing gives her firsthand familiarity with both sides. She zeroes in on the subtests a candidate actually needs — whether that's Core Academic Skills math or a content-area exam in biology or English — and builds practice around the question types that carry the most weight.

Erica has been through the PRAXIS process herself on the way to becoming a licensed speech-language pathologist, so she knows firsthand how the exam's structure and question style can trip up well-prepared candidates. She teaches targeted strategies for the reading, writing, and mathematics core sections, with particular attention to time management and eliminating answer choices under pressure.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Rachelle's decade-plus of tutoring experience spans elementary math through college-level writing, which maps neatly onto the broad content the PRAXIS exams cover. She approaches test prep by diagnosing exactly which content areas need reinforcement — whether that's algebraic reasoning, source analysis, or argumentative writing — and drilling those sections with targeted practice.

Passing the PRAXIS requires more than content knowledge — it tests how well candidates can apply pedagogy to realistic classroom scenarios. Lovepreet earned both a Bachelor's and Master's in Education on top of her science degrees, so she understands the intersection of subject-matter depth and instructional strategy that PRAXIS examiners are looking for.
