Similarly, a great tutor needs to have outstanding communication skills that allow them to share their knowledge with students.

How much does an 8th grade math tutor cost?
The price of 8th grade math tutoring depends on several different variables, including the specific concepts your student needs to review and how often study sessions take place. For instance, a student who connects with a tutor through our Instant Tutoring service for immediate assistance may pay a different rate than a student who meets their instructor every weekend.

You can also watch your student's study sessions to monitor their progress.
Are 8th grade math tutors worth it?
If you invested in a software-based tutoring service, your student would be stuck with a rigid curriculum that may introduce fresh concepts too quickly or slowly for them. In contrast, a live 8th grade math tutor can adapt their pacing to how your student is faring.
If they immediately grasp the Pythagorean Theorem, their instructor can move on to something else to keep study sessions as engaging as possible. If they are having a hard time determining the slope of a line, their instructor can provide fresh explications and examples until the material sinks in.
Research suggests that tutored students outperform their peers in 90 percent of cases, but every student responds differently. Contact Varsity Tutors online or by phone today to discover what a tutor could do for the student in your life!
