Additionally, designing each session based on the individual prevents from wasting time covering material that he/she is already proficient in....

Private Tutoring Near You
Receive personally tailored ISEE 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.Parents hoping to send their student to a private school may have to first sign their child up to take the Independent School Entrance Examination, or ISEE. There are three different levels of the test -- lower, middle, and upper -- corresponding with the student's grade level. Each of these tests is broken down into five sections, which are verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, reading comprehension, math achievement, and an essay. Some schools require good scores on this exam for your child to be admitted into their program. To help your child prepare for the exam, consider having your student work with a private tutor. Varsity Tutors' educational directors can help you find a Houston, Texas, ISEE tutor for your student.
The ISEE presents a challenge for students because of the variety of content that is covered on it. Much of the information in each section can correspond with what they've learned in their classrooms, but all of the information is likely not fresh in the student's mind. With a tutor, your student can review information they've learned in the past and complete practice tests that can prepare them for test day. If your child's grades are not up to par, then scoring well on the exam may be difficult. ISEE tutoring in Houston can go back through your child's education and determine the areas that your child may struggle with most on the exam. They can then teach to these areas during the tutoring sessions. With the proper analysis, your student's tutor can prepare the right materials to help your child study for the ISEE.
