Private ERB CTP Tutoring
Receive personally tailored ERB CTP 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.Throughout the country, many schools rely on the results of Educational Records Bureau's Comprehensive Testing Program (CTP) to provide teachers of first- through eleventh-grade classrooms with detailed information about how effective instruction has been and how to best help each student succeed. The CTP consists of two types of tests per subject: achievement tests measure how your child's knowledge measures up against benchmarks in the specific educational curricula used at a given school, and reasoning tests measure the degree to which your child can understand abstract, complex relationships. Using these two types of tests in conjunction provides insight about how effective their instruction has been compared to their innate abilities.
All versions of the CTP include sections on reading and math, but depending on when your child takes the assessment, it may also analyze their abilities in other subjects. While listening skills are evaluated in first and second grades, more complex subjects like quantitative reasoning and vocabulary appear in more advanced grades as your child's education becomes more complete. Facing the CTP at any grade level can cause anyone anxiety, as the standardized testing environment can seem foreign and pressured compared to normal classroom evaluations. If you'd like to help your child prepare to face the CTP with confidence in his or her abilities, personal CTP tutoring might be just the thing to help you do so. Varsity Tutors can help you connect with dedicated CTP tutors from all over the world.
