Award-Winning FSA Tutors

Varsity Tutors is the only name you need to know if you or your student could benefit from working with a certified FSA tutor. We understand how busy people are today, so we've developed an exclusive Live Learning Platform that facilitates face-to-face study sessions anywhere with a reliable internet connection.

Here are some of the features our Live Learning Platform brings to the table:

• Video chat capabilities that facilitate real-time communication
• A shared document editor allowing tutors to provide constructive criticism on essays
• Integrated practice problems to encourage collaboration
• Automatic session recording for future reference
• A virtual whiteboard that makes it easier to take notes

The FSA (or Florida Standards Assessments) are administered in English Language Arts and mathematics from grades 3-10, and students must pass the final FSA in English to earn a standard high school diploma. The specific formatting of the exam depends on a student's grade level, so an FSA tutor can administer practice tests under realistic conditions to help your student feel more comfortable with the structure and formatting they can expect.

Your student's instructor can also review their practice tests and design subsequent study plans around any areas of opportunity for improvement. For example, an excellent writer who struggles with mathematics can spend their study sessions brushing up on their quantitative problem-solving skills.

If you or your student tried to prepare for the FSA on your own, you would have no recourse if something didn't make sense to you. A private tutor can answer any questions you have immediately, virtually ensuring that any miscommunication is corrected before it becomes a significant learning obstacle.

Similarly, software-based test prep cannot be adapted to the needs of an individual student. In contrast, a live FSA tutor can adapt whenever it appears that their pupil is no longer being challenged by the material.

The costs associated with private FSA tutoring are variable based on a student's unique needs. For instance, you may pay a different rate if you want a quick refresher on how to write from an outline than a more detailed examination of systems of linear equations.

If you're interested in more affordable options, we can also enroll you or your student in an FSA class provided by Varsity Tutors or arrange group tutoring where multiple students can split the cost of their instructor. Contact us today to discuss each of these solutions in further detail.

Varsity Tutors maintains an extensive database of well-vetted independent tutors, allowing us to use advanced tutor-matching technology to find any student a great tutor in as little as 24 hours. We actively look for instructors who excel at pinpointing the root cause of a student's learning obstacles, enabling them to address the problem at its source.

We also search for instructors who understand modern teaching methods, allowing them to teach to each student's unique learning styles. For instance, counting cubes can be a great way to introduce multiplication to a young learner, while kinesthetic learners can get more out of extra practice problems.

FSA tutoring can also help you or your student develop the test-taking skills you need to reach for academic success. For instance, your FSA coach can show you how to rule out some of the incorrect answer choices on a multiple-choice item to raise the efficacy of your guesses.

Independent research also suggests that working with a private tutor can increase a student's test scores by up to 12 percent, a boost that could prove significant.
