To teachers of Foreign Languages from a student teacher

[suprtate]

Does anyone have any advice about passing the PRAXIS exam in Foreign Language Pedagogy? I've completed a study book but don't know how much to trust it. Please help if you can.

In my opinion, the pedogogy was the easiest section of the test. Are you traditional licensure or ntl? I was traditional, so I took a methods class that helped a lot. I know the praxis for Spanish is changing soon, but I'm not sure which tests or when. That is something I would definatly find out and make sure you have an updated study guide if the pedogogy is changing.

Hello,
Thank you so much for your reply! Unfortunately, I think we're talking about different tests. I should have made myself more clear.
I am undergoing certification in Japanese, so there is no language-specific test as there is for Spanish (which I assume you teach?) Because of this, I have to take a test that is not language specific, and focuses only on second lang. aquisition theory and pedagogy.
You might still be able to help me, however. There seem to be a lot of practice questions about the "steps of foreign language writing" but I've never heard of any steps laid out in specific detail.
Do you have any clue?
Thanks again for replying,
