Nassau County Summer Tutoring FAQ
Without the ongoing challenge of the schoolroom, where there's an opportunity to learn and practice important skills, kids tend to fall behind over the summer months. It's a phenomenon known as the "summer slide." If you're concerned about your child "sliding," the educational directors at Varsity Tutors could help you connect with an independent tutor in Nassau County who can keep your child on track, and prevent summer learning loss.
It's estimated that young people can lose up to two months' worth of math skills over one summer. Our educational directors can connect you with an experienced tutor in Nassau County, NY, who will focus only on the subjects that your child struggles to retain during the summer months. Your tutor will have direct experience with the strategies used to help kids retain the instruction they've already received while giving them a head-start on the upcoming school year at the same time.
Call us today to find summer tutors in Nassau County to try to help your child fight learning loss. We understand how hectic the summer months can be for families so we'll only connect you with tutors who are available when you are. Need to schedule tutoring sessions on Saturday? No problem. Your independent tutor will come to you, at home, or at any other location where your child is comfortable. Our face-to-face online learning platform is another great option. It achieves the same results as in-person instruction and it's a popular choice for media-savvy young people,
Once school starts again, the first six weeks are spent re-learning what was taught in the spring. Imagine if your child could spend that time getting ahead of the curve by working on new material. A highly skilled tutor can turn summer into a time of learning instead of loss, so your child could be able to perform at their highest level throughout the entire school year. Studies have shown that simply reading several books during the summer months is comparable to actual summer school enrollment. The tutors in your area know how to get your child interested in reading, and will work with them one-on-one to keep them reading.
Summer learning loss can start as soon as the first grade, so don't delay. Find an expert summer tutor in Nassau County, NY, today by contacting Varsity Tutors' educational directors. Help make every school year the best school year for your child with a summer tutor. Call us today!
