How can a Elementary Math tutor help you?
Elementary math has caused headaches for many a student. Young children often struggle with division, fractions, percents, and even word problems. Teachers have to move quickly to keep up with the lesson plan and the demands on children to learn basic math before more advanced topics are taught. Varsity Tutors is happy to try to help you find your student an independent elementary math tutor in Columbus, OH. Our directors may take into account your child's needs and goals, as well as their learning style, and find the best possible match. A tutor might make a world of difference in math. They may teach concepts in different ways that your student may connect with, in order to succeed in the class.
In addition to Common Core Standards, there are End-of-Course tests and Ohio State tests to consider. To pass an exam, your child must have working knowledge of problems, not just memorization to rely on. Each tutor knows that it's important for the subject to make sense. Their approach is goal-oriented, with topics laid out in personalized lessons using the most appropriate tools. They may also help your student develop an appreciation for math, rather than be turned off by it. A personal tutor may be a real confidence-builder in that respect.
