My comments on tutoring Praxis Exam : Experienced Praxis Math tutor. Expert at teaching how to use the College Board's official calculator off their own website to help you work smart, not hard...the key to high scores. Additionally, I teach all the underlying concepts that Praxis takers find super hard to keep straight, like combinations and permutations, how to tell the difference, and when to use each one (on the College Board's calculator to save time!)...statistics (all on the calculator to make it easy).

Or maybe you'll say, "I FEEL like they want me to factor here" (as you tap the problem with your pencil). And I'll think, "Aha! FEEL. Maybe you learn by intuition and need to just jump in and work a problem or two with me step-by-step and discover the pattern of what's going on and pick up the FEEL of it. So... ... read more
