What resources can you use to study for this test?
- YouTube videos: I used Kathleen Jasper’s webinar videos to help me prepare for this
Praxis test. You need to go to YouTube and search Kathleen Jasper, making sure to find
the correct test you are studying for. It’s helpful to use the 1-hour videos as study prep
because Kathleen Jasper goes over each section of the test. She uses practice questions
from her study book that she created for this specific Praxis, while providing strategies
that can help you find the best possible answer choice.
- Kathleen Jasper’s 5025 Study Prep book: I didn’t personally use this, but it can be a
great way to study if you prefer not to use YouTube videos.
- Practice Tests: Practice tests were extremely helpful in my preparation for the Praxis
5025 test. You can pay for practice tests online or ask sources such as ChatGPT, Copilot,
or Gemini to generate practice questions for you. Quizlet is also a great way to study
materials for the test.

What to do on test day?
- Make sure that you are well rested.
- Eat a good breakfast that won’t make you too full but won’t leave you hungry either.
- Prepare your documentation such as a Driver’s License or Student ID. I brought both.
- Arrive at the testing center early. This allows you to take the time to find your destination
and gives you time to complete any necessary requirements during check-in.
- Believe in yourself and stay positive.
