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.

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!
