Orange County ACT Tutoring FAQ
The ACT, short for American College Testing, is a college admissions exam taken by 11th and 12th grade students. It tests English, math, reading, and science. An optional writing test is also included. Your high school upperclassman has enough on their mind with schoolwork, jobs, and being on the cusp of adulthood. Taking a test that determines entrance into a college only adds to that stress, and teachers don't offer much help outside of testing information. Varsity Tutors can lighten their load. If your teen is preparing for the ACT, Varsity Tutors can assist you in finding an experienced tutor in Orange County, CA.
Let us connect you with a talented ACT tutor in Orange County who is truly excited about the ACT and teaching it to others. They empathize with your teen since they had to deal with the rigors of the exam before. The tutors are skilled in the subjects covered on the ACT, and they have an excellent track record in helping teenagers.
Your teen can meet with a tutor in any public setting like the library or the local community center. A tutor can even meet with them in your home if your teen is more comfortable there. Face-to-face online tutoring is also available. If your teen has to work or volunteer, the tutors can work around their schedule so they won't have to cut their hours.
Our educational directors will match you with an ACT tutor in Orange County, CA, who is knowledgeable in a host of alternative teaching methods to best teach to your teen's particular learning style. If your teen is a visual student, their tutor can assist them with books or slides. If your teen works better with their hands, their tutor can give them worksheets to practice math problems or science questions. Even though the essay part of the ACT is optional, your teen may be eyeing a college that requires the writing test for admission. Schools don't provide time to practice essay writing since they have their hands full with other school subjects. Your child's tutor can provide an example essay question and use a stopwatch to time them. This method not only prepares them for the ACT writing test; it also gives them a taste of what to expect in college since college students regularly take timed test during mid-terms and finals.
