Receive personally tailored ACCUPLACER Sentence Skills lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with the best tutor for your particular needs while offering flexible scheduling to fit your busy life.
What is ACCUPLACER? According to its official site, ACCUPLACER is a series of tests that quickly, accurately, and efficiently assesses reading, writing, math, and computer skills. From there, a student's scholastic strengths and weaknesses are underlined in these tests. Colleges and universities use the ACCUPLACER assessment in order to gauge the abilities and skill levels of incoming students and then place them in appropriate first semester courses. So why is this so important? If you are about to begin your initial semester at a higher-learning institution that uses the Sentence Skills section of the ACCUPLACER test, it is important that you prepare to demonstrate all of the grammar knowledge you have gained throughout your many years of primary and secondary education on exam day. Not familiarizing yourself with the section's specific format and question types could be costly, and could result in you being assigned to a course much too easy for your skill level. Not brushing up on your rusty grammar rules could also be detrimental. Going about these tests nonchalantly and half-prepared could hinder your intellectual development and the completion of your degree.
Personal ACCUPLACER Sentence Skills tutoring can help you to approach your exam with confidence. No matter what aspects of English grammar that most confuse you, ACCUPLACER Sentence Skills tutoring can provide you with targeted assistance to help you master the particular concepts that give you difficulty. Each ACCUPLACER Sentence Skills tutor knows all of the ins and outs of the assessment, and is talented at sharing his or her understanding of English grammar with others. Even so, the Varsity Tutors' educational directors can help you hand select the tutor best suited to help you. Tutors are picked based on your experience, unique set of strengths and weaknesses, your concerns, and even your preferred learning style and personality. Then, your tutor can analyze your current grammar knowledge and craft a customized series of lesson plans to help you shore up any gaps in your knowledge and augment your weakest skills. The individualized, one-on-one nature of private tutoring means that as soon as you have a question about the material, you can have it answered quickly and effectively. You can also feel free to work at whatever pace that best allows you to learn and grasp the material. If you need to spend more time on mastering a particular grammar rule while breezing through concepts you already understand, you can do so due to the inherent structure of your sessions.
