Praxis II


The Praxis II exams are Specialty (or Subject) Area exams. In order to become certified to teach a given subject, a teacher must take the Praxis exam in that subject area, with the specific version of the exam determined by the state’s Department of Education. Each class of Certified Learning Centers’ Praxis II Preparatory Class program is therefore tailored to the state and curriculum requirements for the content area being taught, as well as to the needs of the individual students.

There are, however, a number of characteristics that all of the preparatory classes share:
1.  Session One - No matter what the specific subject area, the first session focuses on:
     a) Certification Requirements - the format, subject material, scoring; etc. of both the Praxis I and Praxis II exams.
     b) Test-Taking Strategies - both general strategies and any specific to the content of the particular class.
     c) An overview of the Content Material.
     d) Materials - A comprehensive textbook; the appropriate Praxis II “Tests at a Glance” booklet; and a Student Guide that contains Book and Online References the students can use to follow up on any and all of the subject matter, and additional content-related material, such as articles, important terminology lists, laboratory procedures, timelines of historical figures, etc.

2. Session Two - The body of each of the courses is given over to review of the specific subject material that will be covered on the exam. The guidelines used are those provided by the ETS “Tests at a Glance” booklet, and the length of the course is dependent upon the volume of material that the students need to cover.

3. Final Session - The final session is used for both a review/discussion to help the student pull together the different aspects of the course material; and a Post-Test, so that the students can gain practice taking an exam under realistic conditions, as well as determine the specific areas they still need to work on. A full-length version of the test is administered whenever possible, but since ETS does not release previous exams for most subjects, a shortened (though identical format and, of course, content-relevant) exam is substituted.
