The High School Placement Test (HSPT) is given to students who are applying to select private and parochial high schools. It's used to make decisions about admissions, and it also plays a role in deciding which students are offered scholarships at many schools. By the time your child pursues eighth grade, he or she is probably already feeling a little pressure to pursue academically. At Varsity Tutors, we could help you ensure your student performs as well as possible on this important test. Contact one of our educational directors to get connected with HSPT tutors in Berkeley, CA.
This test is different from other exams your child has taken. It covers language, math, reading, and verbal skills. Catholic schools might also require the optional section on religion, and there are also opportunities to be tested in science and mechanical aptitude. The tutors that our educational directors can help you find in Berkeley are experienced professionals who are skilled in working to help students try to understand the intricacies of the HSPT. Your child's tutor will have the opportunity to cover the areas that will be the most difficult for your child.
An experienced HSPT tutor could help your child understand the subject matter that will be found on the test as well as feel comfortable with the format and structure of the test. Since this is not an exam that everyone takes, it can be difficult to find a tutor who has the qualifications and experience to help. We can make it easier. Call us today to find professional HSPT tutors in Berkeley to try to help your student develop a study plan that is catered to their skills, abilities, and learning style. The tutor will work at your child's pace and provide testing techniques and strategies that will be used in the HSPT and throughout your student's academic life.
The tutor may be able to meet with your child at a time and place that is most convenient for you. It might be best to schedule in-person study sessions at home, or your student might prefer to learn online. Your tutor can do either in-person or online studying with your child. Applying to high school is an important step in planning an educational career, and you want your student to feel empowered and successful. A good tutor will provide support, encouragement, and instruction. Contact our educational directors in Berkeley, CA, today to find HSPT tutors to try to help your child address all of their problem areas.
