Praxis Exam is one of my top subjects! In 2006, I began scoring constructed responses on the PRAXIS exam for one of the nation's leading test administrators. My specialization in scoring is for the special education test for the Education of Exceptional Students (Learning Disabilities). Having this experience in the essay components of the test (which accounts for 50% of the test score) gives me an insiders knowledge of what you can do to maximize the effectiveness of your responses.

I have taught Special Education in the public school system for over 13 years. This exposure to the needs of students and the strategies that play such an important part in helping students succeed led me to eventually begin scoring PRAXIS tests. After 3 years of scoring, I was offered a position as a scoring facilitator who introduced constructed response questions, discussed rubric requirements, and monitored the scores given by groups of 10-14 scorers assigned to each question.
I am easygoing and friendly, and never judgemental. I will focus on what you feel is your weakest link or help you determine where your needs are. We will discuss the scoring rubric used on the constructed responses, examine examples of potential scenarios, and review responses and how they would have scored and why.

After having the opportunity to tutor one-on-one and as a whole class, I have discovered that each student learns in a unique way. Some of the students were visual learners, while others needed more tactile experiences. Other students benefited from auditory learning. As a tutor, it is my responsibility to evaluate each student and determine what methods will work best with that individual.
As an undergraduate at Muhlenberg College, I had the opportunity to serve as a peer tutor in mathematics to incoming freshmen. I enjoyed the experience of helping other students succeed. I have a bachelor's degree in Physical Science which allowed me to gain knowledge in the fields of mathematics and physics. I decided to further my education in the field of Applied Mathematics. I tutored for one full year as a teacher's assistant at Delaware State University. I had the opportunity to tut ... read more

I believe that all children learn differently, so an effective teacher must adapt the message to reach all students In a class. In my classroom I teach using lessons that incorporate VATK (visual, auditory, tactile-kinesthetic)methods to teach the way my diverse students learn. For reading and mathematics test preparation, the methods used at my school have 100% of our students scoring proficient or above grade level on PSSA tests. Lessons should be organized, interesting, and should include a clear goal, and plan for achieving the goal. I also believe that students can achieve more when parents and teachers communicate regularly and when informed learned is reinforced at home on a regular basis.

A Little Bit About Me...

I firmly believe that the right combination of hard work and innate talent will help a child learn and grow. I set high expectations for my students, and I create a learning environment for each child to achieve at their own pace and in their own way. I have learned that a smile and a nudge in the right direction can create for a young learner a path towards empowerment and success. I believe that establishing and securing a firm foundation in basic skills is essential for developing higher-order knowledge. Each child will flourish with the right structures in place, and among the most important of these is the right teacher.
I have a decade of experience as a teacher, tutor, and counselor/mentor in a variety of settings: First Grade through college; urban schools to rural college campuses; in-classroom instruction to private in-home tutoring. As a life-long student myself, I have ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

It's important for every teacher to believe that every student has the capability to learn. Public education, as well as education in general requires teachers to be fair and enforce equality in the classroom. Education serves many purposes, but its most important function is to prepare students for life. Students must be able to use the knowledge they gain in schools to improve themselves and their future. Courses should teach students information that will directly benefit them. It's not just information that students learn in schools. They will look to their teachers as role models to show them the way.

Coming from a family of educators, I have always had a desire to teach and instruct. My areas of study and concentration have provided me with the skills that are characteristic of advanced readers and writers. My eleven years of teaching experience have kept me sharp and current with the newest best practices in the classroom. I have taken this and transferred it to the students that I tutor.
Simply put, I firmly believe that all children can learn and achieve at a high level. Student achievement correlates directly with expectation. Unfortunately, for many students expectations are low. High expectations lead to high achievements. As a teacher, it is my job to find ways to motivate my students to learn. This can be accomplished in many different ways. Differentiated instruction is the first step; students learn in differently and at their own pace. I need to be aware of ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that a solid and rounded education is the foundation for any society and that education begins with an individual. This belief drives my number objective: to teach to the student. For me, it means recognizing the unique abilities and personalities of each student to properly develop and manage a learning strategy for them in order to make measurable gains. I only compare a student against his or her own self so that they realize the only measure that matters is their personal improvement.
My tutoring career began as an honors research student in college. I shared my skills and passion for French and history in plain and easy to grasp concepts that even helped "non-language" types to succeed. Furthering my foundation in teaching methods I pursued my Master's degree in teaching a second language while serving as a graduate. I accepted a fellowship to teach middle school and ... read more

My success lies in the ability to explain the same material in many different ways. There is no one way for all children to learn. I have a passion for teaching that is insatiable. Seeing my students become as excited about a concept as I am, is absolutely amazing. There is no better feeling then a struggling student finally grasping a concept. I live for that feeling not just in the classroom, but throughout all parts of my day.
As a recent college graduate from Temple University, I learned the techniques and disciplines to excel in my education as well as developing the drive to instill this practice in others.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a former business owner, part-time educator, and father of two, I can say with certainty that I have been constantly instructing or teaching in one form or another for the past 15 years. As my children and previous students will attest, I have a calm patience when it comes to educating, particularly I think because education and learning did not come easy to me as a young student. I was always a visual learner who needed examples and samples to help guide me and I have always tried to provide the same visual learning atmosphere whenever I have been an instructor. I always appreciated when a teacher or professor was accessible to answer my questions and have followed suit in my brief teaching career.
I have both a BA and MA in English and have taught and tutored at a variety of levels including time spent at the Community College of Philadelphia. As a result of over eight year ... read more
