Angie makes social studies fun. My twin girls age 9 usually do not like social studies. Angie tells stories, shows pictures, maps and video clips that make social studies interesting. I recommend Angie highly.

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!
Vanessa B.

4 lessons

I took the social studies praxis test multiple times and then when I started working with Brian, I passed on the next time I took it. Brian is extremely knowledgable on all social studies topics and really helped me learn multiple choice test taking strategies. He was flexible and comfortable to work with. I highly recommend anyone using Brian. I could not have passed without him! - Vanessa, 4 lessons with Brian
