How can a tutor help your child master the ISEE?
Competitive schools are called so for a reason. Whether aiming to get your child into an elementary, middle, or high school of choice, the Independent School Entrance Examination (ISEE) is a stepping stone they must face. It's divided up into lower, middle, and upper versions. Each one requires a different type of preparation, as the topics are more challenging the higher the level, gauging your student's proficiency based on high standards. A tutor may get your child prepared for the five sections of the exam - verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, reading comprehension, math achievement, and the essay. There's a lot to cover for the nearly three-hour test, but help is just a phone call away. Call Varsity Tutors today to find professional ISEE tutors in Kansas City, MO, to try to help your child develop a study plan catered to their skills, abilities, and learning style.
Each tutor may immediately assess your child's strengths and areas of confusion. Targeted lessons may cover any weakness your student might have, and include the most relevant study materials, tools, and teaching methods, which may all be adapted along the way, depending on how your child progresses. Our educational directors are happy to help you locate an independent ISEE tutor in Kansas City for your student. Tutors are skilled at teaching and taking the ISEE, so they may provide your child with a sense of confidence as test day nears.
