Praxis Core Math 5733: A Workbook for the Math Phobic - Paperback

This is a workbook designed to help students prepare for the math section of the newest Praxis Core Exam, 5733. Prospective teachers need a passing score to receive public-school teaching certification. No other preparation material covers the math portion of the Praxis Core exam as comprehensively as this book does, with 21 chapters of lessons, an initial assessment test, and one additional realistic practice test. For candidates whose math is already good, it provides a useful survey of the areas they need to cover and the formats test questions can take, while for those whose math is rusty or has never been strong, it provides a structured approach that guides them gradually through the material, using fully worked examples based on exam format. The lessons take the student from arithmetic to pre-algebra material, leading up to algebra and geometry, including word problems, statistics, and graphs. The workbook builds up math skills and the ability to recognize what questions require, with a focused test at the end of each chapter to consolidate and provide students with ample opportunity to practice the types of problems that often stump them. Praxis Core Math 5733: A Workbook for the Math Phobic can be used by the motivated student to practice independently or with a private tutor. The book can also be used in college Praxis courses.
