The State of New Jersey requires Beginning Teachers to present passing scores from the NTE (National Teacher Examination) that was used a few years back. The NTE has been replaced with the PRAXIS Series Examinations, the Praxis I: Pre-Professional-Skills-Test (PPST) was created to test comprehension in Reading, Writing, and Mathematics for the new teacher. ETS (Educational Testing Service) offers the Praxis 1 examination in place of the NTE. The Praxis 1 Examination is the most widely accepted Reading, Writing, and Mathematics skills assessment test in the nation.

If you find that you are required to take the Praxis 1 either for your Teacher Education Program at your University, or for licensure in the State of New Hampshire, let us help you prepare.
