How can a tutor help you master the SAT?
The SAT, once known as the Scholastic Aptitude Test, is a standardized test. It helps colleges and universities in the US evaluate the mathematical and verbal skills of applicants. This test is generally taken during junior and/or senior year. Most of the higher learning institutions in America use the SAT to help determine eligibility. A low SAT score may be the deciding factor in you being denied acceptance into the college of your choice. Over 1.6 million students take this exam annually, with many competing for spots in the nation's top schools. If you're not confident about taking this exam, a tutor could help. Varsity Tutors can help you locate an independent tutor in Baltimore experienced in helping students prepare for the SAT.
An SAT tutor will be sure to touch on Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, as well as Math, which are both sections found on the test. There's also an optional essay question. However, there are some universities and colleges that require that your essay question be attached with your final test score. Your tutor understands that and will be sure to try to help you grasp what administrators are looking for in SAT essays, so you can get it right the first time. You'll learn in a positive learning environment, with a tutor matched to meet your specific needs. This tutor will continuously evaluate your progress and downfalls and customize a tutoring plan to try to help you improve overall. At Varsity Tutors, we can help you find a professional tutor in Baltimore, MD, to try to help you build upon your strengths and eliminate your weaknesses in the sections of the SAT.

"The student and I continued learning strategies for the math section. She is doing a better job of allocating her time on the test, but still needs to remember some of the basic problem-solving strategies for medium questions."

"I was impressed with all of the practice the student had done on her own. We went over the questions she didn't understand and focused on math review. We worked through setting up equations and problem solving the non multiple choice math problems. We also reviewed vocab and tried using contextual clues to narrow down the meaning of the missing words."

"Today we reviewed both the writing and math sections of the test, going over old strategies and doing a judicious amount of practice problems, along with a focus on grid-ins and the paragraph improvement questions, two specialty types we had focused less on earlier. While grid-ins still proved difficult, current strategies seemed to work very well on the paragraph improvement questions, and in general most section-specific strategies had been retained despite the long break."
