This ignited my initial passion for teaching. I believe teaching should be "hands on" by involving the student through questions and promoting participation. One-on-one teaching especially should be less lecturing from the tutor and more input from the student. By using examples to clarify and solidify points, concepts can be fully understood...

Private In-Home and Online Tutoring Near You
Receive personally tailored lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations. Varsity Tutors helps thousands of people asking, "How do I connect with the best tutors near me?"
If you are applying to graduate or business school and need help reviewing for the GRE, then reach out to Varsity Tutors to connect with experienced Boulder GRE tutors. The GRE or Graduate Record Examination is a multiple-choice, standardized exam that is accepted by thousands of colleges and universities in more than 160 countries worldwide. The GRE is made up of three sections: Analytical Writing, Verbal Reasoning, and Quantitative Reasoning. The purpose of the test is to assess your readiness for graduate-level courses. If you need extra support reviewing for the GRE, we can connect you with a qualified tutor who can help you discover and fill in any knowledge gaps.
How are Boulder GRE tutoring sessions different from classroom learning?
Studying with private GRE tutors allows you to work closely with a qualified expert in a one-on-one academic setting. In addition to managing many students at a time, teachers are typically required to follow a set curriculum for the academic school year. A downside to learning in a classroom is that there is simply not enough time for the teacher to help every student before they need to move on. Likewise, the teacher is not always able to accommodate the different learning styles of their students. The limitations of a classroom setting can make it difficult for you to get the help you need on topics that are relevant to the GRE.
Boulder GRE tutoring sessions are completely flexible. When you study with a private tutor, you get the opportunity to focus on any issues that you find particularly challenging. For example, the Analytical Writing section of the GRE tests your ability to formulate a well-written thesis. However, writing a detailed response can be difficult, especially if you are unfamiliar with the topic. A private tutor can give you practice topics to work on and help you support your arguments with clear examples. Boulder GRE tutors can also accommodate your preferred learning style. If you prefer a visual method of instruction, your tutor can utilize aids like mind maps to help you better prepare and plan a written response. Likewise, if you are an auditory learner, your tutor can focus more on listening and speaking. There are different learning styles, so your academic mentor can utilize the one that works best for you.
Boulder GRE tutoring also gives you the flexibility to study at your own pace. If you feel confident in your arithmetic skills, there is no need to keep spending time in this area. So you can skip over these questions and move on to more challenging ones like quantitative comparison. Studying in this manner can help improve the effectiveness of each session as you can focus your attention to where it matters most.
What are the benefits of studying with Boulder GRE tutors near me?
Private Boulder GRE tutors can assess your current skills and put together a personalized lesson plan that is designed specifically to facilitate your learning needs. These lesson plans can be adapted as your skills begin to gradually improve. So if you make huge strides on question types that evaluate your reading comprehension, you can move on to topics such as text completion or sentence equivalence. You can dictate the pace of each tutoring session as needed.
Another benefit of working with private Boulder GRE tutors is that your instructor can take the time to get to know you on a more personal level. The kind of rapport that you can establish with your tutor means that you are free to open up about any specific issues you might struggle with. You can ask any questions that are relevant to the GRE and receive direct feedback from your academic mentor.
Working alongside private Boulder GRE tutors also means that you can get immediate feedback on whatever you are working on. For example, If you are answering practice questions based on a passage and get a question wrong, your tutor can immediately point it out and help you understand why it was incorrect. You don't necessarily have to get a question wrong either. If anything is confusing, you can also ask questions and get help right away. This kind of feedback is not something you can get by studying on your own.
There are many other ways that you can benefit from Boulder GRE tutoring sessions. A private tutor can share helpful tips on setting a study schedule and provide resources for you to get extra practice even after sessions end. An academic mentor can also help you become familiar with how the test is formatted and provide helpful test-taking tips. For example, some standardized tests deduct points for getting a question wrong, but the GRE doesn't do this. So it is in your best interest to answer every single question. If you don't know the answer to a multiple-choice question, your tutor can teach you how to eliminate obviously wrong answers and increase your chances of getting it right.
How can I fit Boulder GRE tutoring sessions into my schedule?
We understand that you likely have a busy schedule that is jam-packed with personal and professional obligations. You might be wondering how you can find the time to study with a private tutor.
