Oshawa Erb Tutoring FAQ
The Educational Records Bureau (or ERB) is a non-profit organization that provides admissions assessments for students in grades pre-kindergarten through 12. No matter which exam your child will be taking, Varsity Tutors can help you connect with a professional tutor for ERB test prep.
The Admission Assessment for Beginning Learners (or AABL) is offered for students in pre-kindergarten through 1st grade. The test assesses quantitative reasoning, math, verbal reasoning, and early literacy. It is a child-friendly exam that is administered on a tablet. If your child has an AABL exam coming up, it makes sense to have him or her work with a tutor for ERB test prep in order to become more comfortable with the testing format.
The Independent School Entrance Exam (or ISEE) is offered for students in grades 2 through 12. It is one of the most popular assessment and admissions tests for independent schools. The exam is available in four levels: primary, lower, middle, and upper. Each exam includes mathematics and reading questions, as well as an essay question. If your child is preparing for an upcoming ISEE exam, a private ERB tutor could help him or her gain the confidence necessary to feel prepared on test day.
Working with a private ERB tutor for any of these achievement and admissions exams is a great way to get a child prepared for test day. One of the primary benefits of working with a private tutor is the ability to have each tutoring session customized to fit your child's learning needs. While foundational knowledge will have been built with previous learning experiences, many children have areas in which they could use a little more assistance.
A private tutor can take the time to work with your child and discover his or her strengths and areas of opportunity. The tutor can then create a detailed plan of study that will incorporate your child's specific needs and the requirements of the exam he or she will be taking.
In addition, if your child has a solid academic foundation but suffers from test anxiety, his or her tutor can work on specific test-taking strategies to help him or her become more comfortable with taking exams by steadily building confidence.
The Varsity Tutors live learning platform makes it easy to connect with expert tutors who are eager to work with your child at a time and place that is most convenient for your busy schedule. You can even schedule the tutoring sessions in an online learning platform that can be accessed by your child from any place he or she has internet access.
