Dedicated Private 1st Grade Math Tutoring Online
1st grade math tutoring could be just what your student needs to unlock more of their potential. The benefits of tutoring have been clearly established by multiple independent studies.
For example, did you know that tutoring can improve a student's test scores by more than 12 percent? Private instruction can be especially valuable to younger students, such as those in 1st grade. It provides them with an opportunity to get individualized assistance with their foundational skills in challenging subject areas like math. If your student has been having trouble with their 1st grade math class, Varsity Tutors can help. Reach out to us and we'll happily find your student a skilled tutor to learn from. We look forward to hearing from you.
The Most Certified 1st Grade Math Tutors Available
Varsity Tutors makes searching for a 1st grade math tutor much easier. We take care to match all of our students with instructors who are good fits for their unique needs.
This involves identifying tutors who have strong communication skills, approachable personalities, and proven expertise in the relevant subject area. Your student will get to work with a 1st grade math tutor who can help them take the next step towards their goals in the subject area. They'll receive one-on-one attention, which enables them to learn about the topics they're studying on a more in-depth level. This kind of academic assistance can also help your student take the first step towards earning better scores.
How much does a 1st grade math tutor cost?
Your costs for 1st grade math tutoring will vary based on the specifics of what your student needs. For example, if they have an important exam approaching, you may want them to meet with their instructor for a longer amount of time for each study session.
Or, you might want them to see a private instructor more times each week. Factors like these can influence the overall price of your student's study sessions. We understand that price is an important factor for you. That's why we work hard to make sure tutoring is affordable enough to fit any budget. Reach out to us and we'll happily walk you through your student's options.
How does online 1st grade math tutoring work?
Your student will meet with their 1st grade math tutor on our powerful Live Learning Platform. It features an integrated video chat so your student and their instructor can communicate as if they were in the same room together.
The platform also features helpful tools like a virtual whiteboard and a shared document editor. Your student's tutor can set them up with a customized lesson plan that covers the topics they need to learn more about. This can include measurement, addition, subtraction, and more. Even better, your student's online tutoring sessions will be recorded, enabling you to go back and review them whenever you want. These features make private online instruction an excellent way to help your student improve at math.
Are 1st grade math tutors worth it?
Math is a subject that builds upon itself as students advance through their academic careers. If a student has a poor mathematical foundation, they will find future coursework especially challenging.
That's why 1st grade math tutoring is so valuable. It gives your student an opportunity to solidify their mathematical base so they don't feel overwhelmed when they get older. However, don't just take our word for it. Let your student try private math instruction themselves and see how much they benefit from it.
