Study Tips or advice for the French PRAXIS?

Answer 1

I took both the Spanish and French PRAXIS. The listening section goes incredibly fast. As SOON as you are allowed to open your booklet begin reading the choices for the listening answers. Then, when you hear the fast dialogue you will know what you are listening for.

The culture seemed a little obscure to me, but I can distinctly recall coming across some of the questions in the culture sections of French text books. If you have any textbooks or can get one (1 of each level is best) then just page through it and read each culture section. Much of it will be review, but it helps to have it fresh in your mind.

If you are at the point that you are ready for the PRAXIS then the vocabulary and grammar should be relatively easy, but again, if you just look at the grammar boxes in the text book then it should be enough of a review. It is especially helpful for those things that are easy to do, but easily forgotten (such as être verbs in the passé composé or when to use y versus en, etc).

If you come across things that you feel you have forgotten then jot them down and make flashcards for yourself. It should not be so bad; I am very fluent in Spanish. I lived in Mexico for a year and had no problems with the Spanish test. I was worried about the French because I am not as fluent in French but I did fine. And, as the above post states, the Spanish and French are the same tests except, of course, for the language that the questions are written in.

Answer 2

if it's anything like the Spanish PRAXIS, study vocabulary....vague vocab. One good tip is to get study materials for the AP French exam, it's formatted much the same. (at least the Spanish one was, I'm assuming it's the same) There will probably be storyboards in which you'll have 1 minute to come up with a verbal story that's recorded, a section of possible corrections to make etc.....like I said, I took the Spanish one, but I figure all foreign language ones are formatted the same. If you're taking the General Education PRAXIS, know your Educational Theories (Brofenbrenner etc. ) Look back in your college Educ class texts (Universal Teaching Strategies is a good text for this)

in case you are able to count quantity to 20, the only "new" numbers you will particularly need to understand with a view to count quantity to sixty-5 are "trente" (30), "quarante" (forty), "cinquante" (50), and "soixante" (60). because of the fact for something, you're in basic terms affixing numbers you already understand: "trente-cinq" (35), "quarante-huit" (forty 8), "cinquante-deux" (fifty two), "soixante-et-un" (sixty one), and so on.
