Portland GRE Tutoring FAQ
Any graduate student could at some time in their academic career find themselves studying to take the Graduate Record Exam (GRE). This aptitude test is one of the most important criteria that your graduate school will use to evaluate your application. As such, it is important that you do as well as possible on this exam. If you feel you might need some assistance preparing for one or more sections of this exam, then Varsity Tutors could help you connect with an independent tutor in Portland who can assist you in preparing for the GRE.
Varsity Tutors' educational directors can help you connect with a professional GRE tutor in Portland, OR. Your tutor will be skilled in determining just what areas you need to focus on to achieve the maximum score possible. If you think you will need the most help in analytical writing, then your tutor will focus sessions on this component and could help you learn how to best articulate your complex ideas so that your written answers are clear, effective, and receive as many points as possible. Your tutor can also help you prepare for the verbal and quantitative sections by helping you learn how to form conclusions, teaching you test taking strategies, and helping you brush up on your mathematical skills so that you might be ready for both of these sections on the day of your GRE.
Our educational directors will match you with a GRE tutor in Portland who is knowledgeable in a host of alternative teaching methods to best teach to your particular learning style. After meeting with you, your tutor will evaluate your individual learning style, and then they will plan sessions that will meet your specific academic needs.

A formal environment, such as a school study hall or local library where there are few distractions is often desired, but sessions can also take place in the comfort of your own home or through a face-to-face online study session if that is preferable to you. Sessions can take place as often as you need and at any time you choose. Weekends, evenings, or even early in the morning are all possible times that you can schedule your sessions to take place.
