Praxis I (Core)

Ms. Butler has helped two generations of learners in my family! She taught my children and tutored me when I decided to change career paths! Her ELA background shines when she works with you on the writing section- something I struggled with until her tutoring sessions! I 100% recommend her as a tutor for any content area she is confident in teaching!


-Mr. Mitchell

Praxis I (Core)

Ms. Butler's formatting of her sessions worked perfectly for me! Even with being a coach in season, she worked with me to make sure I was understanding and mastering my content each week. She is honest about what she believes you need as a learner and whether or not you are ready for your exam!
