Private Tutoring Near You
Receive personally tailored ACT 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.If your student could benefit from some additional assistance when preparing for the ACT, Varsity Tutors can help you find qualified Denver ACT tutors. When students are struggling to understand specific subjects covered on the ACT, it is not always easy to get the help they need in a traditional classroom.
By studying with a private instructor, your student can spend as much time as needed on a subject and receive answers to any questions that they might have to build upon their comprehension levels. We can help you connect with Denver ACT tutors who have the experience and knowledge to help increase the skills and confidence of your student.
How does Denver ACT tutoring differ from traditional classroom learning?
When your student studies with expert Denver ACT tutors, they receive the undivided attention of a qualified mentor. In traditional classrooms, teachers have a strict curriculum and pace they must follow, while also attempting to meet the needs of an entire classroom. This doesn't often provide them an opportunity to address the needs of students who have particular difficulties in a topic. Also, teachers tend to stick with one teaching style rather than changing it to fit the needs of different students. This can make conventional classroom studying difficult for those students who struggle in specific areas and can lead to them falling behind their classmates.
However, when your student studies with Denver ACT tutors, they can focus on the topics that are giving them the most problems. The mentor they work with can adapt their teaching style to fit your student's individual personality and learning style. For instance, if your student is someone that does best with auditory learning, their mentor can talk them through the Scientific Method with short lectures and animated discussions. However, if your student does best with visual aids, their mentor may use color-coded graphs and charts to show how to manipulate and analyze scientific data in different formats. There are several techniques the instructor can try when working alongside your student.
Taking part in Denver ACT tutoring allows your student to briefly review subjects they already understand so they can put more time and energy into studying the concepts they find more difficult. By doing this, it can lead to more effective study sessions that build up your student's weaker areas. For instance, if your student already understands elementary and intermediate algebra, they can skim over this and instead focus on plane geometry or trigonometry. This method of studying can help your student better prepare for their upcoming ACT.
What are some of the benefits of having my student study with Denver ACT tutors near me?
When your student studies with Denver ACT tutors, the instructor can assess your student's capability in the different subjects the ACT will cover in order to design study sessions that will more efficiently help with their specific learning needs. The lesson plans are flexible, so if your student makes quick progress in one topic, such as understanding the conventions of English, the instructor can encourage them to move onto the style and tone of language.
During Denver ACT tutoring, your student's instructor can take the time to get to know them personally, including their strengths, weaknesses, likes, and dislikes. By doing this, the instructor can not only help your student with tailor-made lesson plans and specific teaching styles but can also help them change their attitude toward education as a whole.
Preparing for the ACT with an understanding instructor allows your child the chance to build a rapport with them. This can help your student look at the subject material differently. When in school, if your student comes across a confusing or complex topic, they might not have the opportunity to dig deeper into the concept to improve their comprehension of it. Additionally, they may not want to admit to their teacher that they are struggling with a particular concept. However, during their private Denver ACT tutoring sessions, your student may feel more comfortable talking to their instructor about the challenges they face.
Working with an instructor means that your student can get immediate feedback. The ACT is devised of several parts, including the Math section, the Writing section, the English section, the Reading section, and the Science section. It is important for your student to understand the topics covered in each of the sections. If your student starts falling behind, they may have a difficult time catching back up. With an empathetic instructor working directly with them to address any questions and offer encouragement when they make mistakes, it can help your student to build up their knowledge in each section without stress.
How can I make time for Denver ACT tutoring?
There are many advantages to studying with a private ACT tutor. It might seem difficult to fit the study sessions into you or your student's schedule. We have developed a convenient solution that makes getting started much simpler and easier to fit into your time constraints. We can help you find a private instructor who can meet either online or in person and who can arrange study sessions that work with the time you have available so that your student can get the additional help they may need.
If you decide on online study sessions, it can be even more convenient. Your student will use our Live Learning Platform to connect with their Denver ACT tutors from any location that has internet. This platform was designed to make more engaging and efficient lessons and has many handy features that do just that, including a virtual whiteboard, a shared document editor, and a video chat.
Your student can use live video chat to communicate with their instructor. They can hear, see, and speak with one another. This allows the instructor to provide answers to questions your student may have and give explanations for subjects that your student finds more complex. The shared document editor and virtual whiteboard let your student's private mentor watch them as they work through problems. If your student makes a mistake, their instructor can quickly help them correct it. This can lead to increased retention of skills and help your student understand how to solve the same type of problem on their ACT.
The Live Learning Platform makes the engagement between your student and their instructor just as effective as in-person lessons, except you don't have to worry about commuting somewhere. Getting started with Denver ACT tutoring is as simple as having a reliable connection to the internet and a compatible device, such as a computer, tablet, or smartphone. Then they can log on and get started from a place that they feel most comfortable — whether this is at the Woodbury Public Library or from the comfort of home.
