1 Testimonials about Praxis Made Easy I took the Praxis Math Test this afternoon, and I left the exam in tears...of JOY!!! The third time was the charm with the help of your book. Thanks so much!!! The first two times I took the exam, I studied ETS and other guides for several months only to fail by a few points both times. I only studied your book, "Praxis Made Easy," for two weeks and earned a passing score of 174. SO HAPPY!!! I actually cried when my score popped up on the screen, the employees at the center were so happy for me, they knew this was my third time. - Shea T. Your materials are the best! I passed the PRAXIS I Math test with a score of 176. I needed to make a 173 for the state requirements. I could not have done this without your book. - Cynthia P. I took the test today and got a 185! I was pretty nervous before the test as my hands were shaking when I had to fill out the registration form, but my nervous energy got my mind working overtime. I couldn't have done it without your material. Thank you. - Wayne G. I took the Praxis I math exam at the beginning of this month and I passed. Most of the problems that came in the test were just like those in your book or practice tests. This book really helped me a lot. - Jeania A. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. For such a great book! I have taken the math section 4 times, and never passed. I found your book on the internet and guess what? I PASSED WITH A 175. I now am recommending your book to everyone that I know that are having problems with the math section. You give practical advice along with great hints on all the sections. Bless you. - Veronica C. Hi Lynn, I just got back my results from the Praxis and I passed with flying colors!!!!!!! I got a 180. No guessing. Nothing. Those cute little tricks and refreshers in your book helped a lot. Thanks so much!! That Distance Rate - Time triangle is still engraved in my brain. - Liz H.

2 As an English major, math is not my forte. Therefore, when I had to take the Praxis I math exam for my teacher certification, I panicked. While taking the exam last month, I panicked even more when I discovered most of the questions were nothing like the questions in Barrons' and Kaplan's practice books. Fortunately, a Google search led me to "Praxis Made Easy." This workbook is truly math made easy! I took the exam yesterday and I, the person who is a sworn enemy of math, passed the exam with a 180! Thank you, Lynn! Were it not for "Praxis Made Easy" I would be taking the Praxis I math exam again. - Mercedes H. I just took the Praxis Math Exam for the 3rd time and got a 184! I am really excited. Everything was in your book and I can't thank you enough for helping me through the test. The first time I took it, I think I got test anxiety. The second time I tripped up on square roots and exponents. This time I knew all the material and slam dunked it! - Michelle F. I ordered your book last Tuesday I started studying it immediately I did all the practice problems as well as the practice tests you sent me. I am happy to report I raised my score from 169 to 173 which is passing here in South Carolina. I cannot thank you enough. I am 40 years old and am going back to school to get my teaching degree. I have not been in school in 20 years and I have forgotten most of the math I learned over the years. Your book actually taught me what I should know and took me to a more confident level with the problems. I do not believe I would have passed it the second time without your book. I simply did not know what I had done wrong on the first test and was at a lost at how to help myself. I had studied another book that helped but did not teach me. Thank You for helping me lift a weight off my shoulders. - Melinda T. I just wanted to let you know I just got home from taking the Praxis and I passed the Math!!!!!!!!!! I got a 178 which was the minimum to pass but hey I PASSED!!!!!!! - Marie B. Well I finally did it!!!!! 178. You have no idea how thankful I am for your materials. If I did not have them to study I don't think I could have ever passed, thank you so much. I studied for 3 months this time and I reviewed and practiced so much, passing has taken such a HUGE burden off. Because I passed I can graduate on time, doing my practicum and student teaching this year and I am done. I

3 felt like passing this test I can now move on with my career. I tell you what I was so worked up over passing the test that after I passed my husband wanted to go eat lunch and by the time we got home, I lost it all in the parking lot!! I have never been that tense over something in my whole life. Again, thank you for your help and your effort/work to help people pass this math section on Praxis. - Miranda E. I just wanted to drop a note to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! Your materials are a miracle tool for success! I have taken the praxis math portion three times before today (my 4th and final attempt). I purchased "Praxis Made Easy" on Friday and studied every page. I took the test on Monday and passed with an amazing score of 180!!!! (the first three times my scores were 169,168,167). I was getting worse as I went. I took a statistics class and received an A, and also recently took a Math for teachers course and received an A, but could not pass the Praxis. Your materials were inexpensive compared to the others out there and yours works!!!! It is so easy to follow and keeps you recalling the knowledge from each chapter. I owe you so much!!! Again THANK YOU!!! - HOLLY H. P.S. I am recommending you to everyone I know!!!!! I took the PRAXIS today and I passed the math, just barely, but I passed. I had only two weeks to study and only used your manual. There was math I hadn't seen in 30 years! All of the time I had was used for the math. An hour here, an hour there, in between four kids needing something or another, the pool, camp, impromtu play groups, etc. You get my drift. If it were not for the clear and easy way you broke down problems, I know I would have had to take this exam again. Just the confidence to believe I could pass, was amazing. I'm going to use the manual as a back up when I have to break down homework problems for my kids. Thanks so much!!!! - Roxana C. I just wanted to let you know that your book really made a difference in my life! I've been studying it diligently on nights and weekends since early November and just took my Praxis for the first time on December 7. I passed with a wonderful score of 183. I was so excited at the computerized score results that I could hardly stand up and kept shaking and laughing at the same time. It was a very draining experience and I am so glad that this is over. - Shirley K.

4 I purchased a copy of your "Praxis Made Easy" book and I cannot tell you just how much I am learning from it. This book deserves an award. I mean I have never had a Math book that was so comprehensible and I simply cannot believe how you cut through the Math mumbo-jumbo when it comes to the rules. I just love your short cut for the Pythagorean theorem problems. I am going really slow with the book but having fun. My test is in April and because of you I know I will do well. I would buy any Math book from you, you are a math genius. Keep up the good work. - Florence N. I wanted to let you know how much Praxis Made Easy helped me pass the test. I had taken the test twice before. I decided not to take it again until I re-learned some math. A friend was taking a Praxis prep class at the University of Richmond and used some of your materials. I ordered a copy from you. I studied with a tutor since January and passed the test today. Thanks to you, I believe I can do math. I currently teach first grade and have many hands on math lessons for my students. I wish someone had told me earlier it is possible to love math. For the first time, I don't break out in a cold sweat when I see fractions. Once again, thank you for writing the book and taking the mystery out of math. - Elizabeth L. I finally passed that horrible test!!! I had a 170, I needed a 172 and I got a 178!!!! I never, ever in a million years thought that I would pass that test! I can't believe it! If it weren't for your study guide I don't think that I ever would have passed it. I have always had trouble with math tests but now, I feel a little bit more confident! I can't thank you enough! I can't believe that after all the college and a masters degree they still aren't satisfied. I feel like they had better go find some rocket scientists or something! Thank you, thank you thank you Lynn! It s awful to think that a test like that can destroy so many lives? Thank God for you who writes and makes available your book. Honestly...I do not think that I could have passed that without you!!!! I cannot believe that they make such a hard test! I could see if it was for middle school math teachers or something but for K-2 special education teachers like me? Come on! I'll bet some of these high up people who legislate these things be required couldn't all pass them. - Jennifer D. I just wanted to write you and thank you for writing "Praxis Made Easy" study guide. I am applying to become a TESOL teacher and with the scores I got I will get into the teaching program. The first time I wrote the Praxis Math (before I bought your book), I ran out of time and had to cancel my math score. After buying your guide, I sat down and did the exercises over and over again. When I wrote the

5 Praxis again in June, my score was 184! This is from someone who last set foot inside a high school math class in So, Dr. Gardner, thank you very, very much. - Cheryl H. (A future TESOL teacher) I want to thank you so much for writing such a wonderful book! I have signed up for the Math Praxis AGAIN, and I have been feeling anxious. Then I saw your site, and loved the example page...so I ordered it on the spot! I take the test in Dec., so I have plenty of time to study. I'm only two points shy of passing and I believe this book will pull me through. I'll keep you posted! Thanks again! Take care and God bless! - Shana S.
