If you're looking for help in preparation for the Praxis exam, Varsity Tutors can set you up with an Indianapolis Praxis course that can give you a better opportunity to succeed on the test. Many people who are trying to become teachers might have to take the test as part of the certification process. Even if you have already covered some of the content during your studies at a college such as Indiana University or Butler University, this course can remind you of the material that you will need to understand to perform well on the exam. The study sessions of your Indianapolis Praxis course will be headed by an instructor with expertise in the field of teaching and an understanding of the ins and outs of the test.
What material will be covered during an Indianapolis Praxis prep course?
The two types of Praxis exams are the Praxis Core and the Praxis Subject Assessments. The Core exam will test your skills in the fundamentals of subjects such as math, reading, and writing. The Praxis Subject Assessments will challenge you to demonstrate your understanding of specific subjects taught by K-12 educators, including questions meant to measure your basic teaching skills. Both versions are computer-based tests. The score is calculated based on the number of correct answers, and you will not be penalized for incorrect answers. For the Praxis Core, you will need to prove your writing ability, your ability to comprehend written documents, and brush up on your knowledge of math subjects such as statistics and probability. For the Praxis Subject Assessments, you will need to prove your essay writing skills and review teaching principles for Early Childhood, K-6, 5-9, or 7-12. No matter which version of the Praxis you happen to be preparing for, your instructor can guide you through the relevant content for that particular exam with the goal of making sure you're adequately prepared for the variety of questions you will encounter.
In addition to a review of the exam material, an Indianapolis Praxis class can prepare you for the computer-based format. Your instructor can also give you tips on how to avoid common pitfalls during the exam. Your Indianapolis Praxis class might help you to better understand how to tackle the computer-based format by providing you with sample questions to enhance your comfort level with the appropriate type of questions.
What are some of the benefits of an Indianapolis Praxis course?
When you enroll in a course, you will receive benefits that can prove useful when it comes time to take the exam. You will be learning with other students in a classroom environment. As a strategy to help you retain the information about relevant subjects, your instructor might employ interactive methods that can make learning more exciting. You also have the freedom to schedule your sessions for the time that works for you. In addition, you have the ability to learn from a location that suits your learning needs.
A collaborative class comes with benefits that are difficult to obtain when studying by yourself. Learning alongside classmates who are seeking to become certified teachers can provide you with inspiration. Each Indianapolis Praxis class session will begin as you log in to the Live Learning Platform. The platform has features to help both the students and the instructor, such as an online whiteboard and a live video chat. One of the advantages of an online class is that you don't have to commute to your sessions, giving you more scheduling flexibility. Furthermore, if you're uncomfortable with a certain subject and feel as if you need extra time to review the material, you can request a one-on-one meeting with your instructor in order to take a closer look at the area of concern. Ultimately, the class is geared towards helping each individual have an opportunity to maximize their potential on the test.
How can I enroll in an Indianapolis Praxis class?
Varsity Tutors is excited to provide you with scheduling options to increase your access to the learning that could make a difference on the Praxis exam. If you're concerned about availability, you can rest assured that the flexible schedule will make it easier to squeeze the sessions into your calendar. If you're interested in finding out more information about how we can help, contact us today. Varsity Tutors will be pleased to walk you through the process and enroll you in an Indianapolis Praxis course that can put you on the path to success on the exam and in your career.

Cori: Indianapolis PRAXIS course instructor
"I touch the future. I teach."... I am pretty animated, so first off I will say "When I talk, I use my hands a lot." I like to use pen and paper or an article that relates to the topic we are addressing; something new that is going on today that is relevant to something that they are going over in class. I use several examples of jumbled up sentences or scrambled sentences, missing one word or one grammar issue, and have them fix it. Tech-wise, the only social media I ever utilize is Pinterest, because I pin a lot of things like quotes and student-related stuff for study skills and learning how to jump a hurdle without lifting your legs for a metaphor.
