You may have decided to take a Praxis test if you've recently graduated from a local college like Concordia University-Portland. Whatever your academic background is, enrolling in a Portland Praxis course could be just what you need to take your understanding of your exam's content to the next level. Keep reading for more information on how you can benefit from this test preparation option.
What's covered in a typical Portland Praxis class?
Classes cover the most important topics that you'll be tested on while taking your Praxis test. This is a series of exams that are usually taken by individuals who wish to become teachers. The exams measure both the academic skills and the subject-specific content knowledge that is needed for teaching. Some states require their prospective teachers to pass one or more Praxis tests before they can earn their teaching credentials. If this scenario applies to you, then it's vital that you have a strong test preparation plan in place during the lead up to your Praxis test.
There are several different Praxis exams that you may decide to take. The first is called the Praxis Core. The Praxis Core is made up of three separate tests, which focus on Mathematics, Reading, and Writing, respectively. You can take these tests separately or as one combined exam based on your preferences. When studying for this, you'll need to refresh your writing and reading comprehension skills. You'll also want to spend some time reviewing important math topics like algebra, statistics, and geometry.
You may also decide to take a Praxis Subject Assessment. This is an exam that focuses on general and subject-specific teaching skills and knowledge. Whether you choose to take the Praxis Core, a Praxis Subject Assessment, or both exams, a Portland Praxis course is an excellent way to prepare. Keep reading to get a closer look at the specific benefits that you can get out of a course.
What are the benefits of taking a Portland Praxis class?
Your class will offer you several key benefits that can help you get more out of your study sessions. First, you'll get the chance to work directly with an instructor who is an expert on the content that you're studying. You'll connect with them and a group of classmates on a powerful virtual learning platform that replicates the traditional classroom learning environment. You can interact with your teacher and with your peers in numerous ways throughout this process.
Your educator will deliver a series of live lectures that, collectively, will cover everything you need to know for your upcoming exam. If you find that you're having trouble with fully understanding some of these lectures, then you don't have to worry. Instead, you'll have the option of signing up to work individually with your teacher. This gives you the opportunity to get personalized feedback and guidance where you need it most.
You may be interested in taking a course but unsure of how to fit it into your busy schedule. However, we can help you with that, too. Courses are offered at various times throughout the day and on various days throughout the week. You can sign up for one that meets after your workday is complete, on the weekend, or whenever you have spare time to study. You can contact us directly if you'd like some assistance finding the best course option for your specific scheduling needs.
How can I get started?
Tests in the Praxis exam series can be challenging to study for on your own. However, the scores that you earn on these exams could play an important role in determining how quickly you're able to begin your teaching career. Thus, it's vital that you have a strong pre-test process as you get ready to take your Praxis test. If you'd like some assistance with preparing for your test, we're happy to offer a number of impactful Portland Praxis course options that can help you get more out of your study sessions. The fastest way to get started with a course is by contacting 51Թ today. We'll help you select the right learning plan for your academic and scheduling needs.
