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?"
How can a tutor help your child master the HSPT?
Twice a year, eighth-grade students have the opportunity to take the High School Placement Test (HSPT). The exam is administered by individual private and parochial high schools rather than on a nationally standardized level. Your child may have two-and-a-half hours to solve 300 multiple-choice questions. The scoring format is scaled between 200 and 800, however, there is no penalty for a student who has an incorrect answer. There are several versions of the HSPT in circulation, each of which cover language, math, quantitative, reading, and verbal skills, as well as optional sections in mechanical aptitude, science, and Catholicism. If you want to try to help your child perform their best, our educational directors may help you connect with independent HSPT tutoring in Nashville, Tennessee.
The educational directors at Varsity Tutors are experienced at connecting students and parents in Nashville with HSPT tutors. Your tutor is hand-selected based on your child's high school of choice, strengths and weaknesses, learning style, testing dates, and more.
