He was able to answer any of my social studies questions right away! His knowledge is amazing. I ended up passing my test the second try, with the help from Brian. The social studies subtest is very hard, but with Brian's help, I raised my score 10 points. That may not sound like much, but for someone who has never been good with this subject, I was ecstatic! I couldn't have done it without my tutor, Brian!!!

I highly recommend Dr. Sherry F. I have struggled with social studies my whole life and I finally gave in and decided to get a tutor. I attempted the social studies praxis exam twice before I decided to work with a tutor and both times I failed. After working with Dr. Sherry I finally started to understand what had happened in this world to give us the opportunities and freedom we have today.
Kaylee D.

4 lessons

He would also take time out of his schedule to answer any questions that I had through the messaging on Wyzant, which was very helpful when it got to be the day before my test and I was trying to learn every little thing. I couldn't have passed the Elementary Education Praxis II Social Studies test without Brian's incredible amount of knowledge that he shared with me about the topic. I would highly recommend Brain to anyone who is trying to pass this social studies test!
