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?"
One way private and independent schools use to filter the applicants to their school is through the Independent School Entrance Examination, or ISEE. The exam is a standardized way for schools to see your student's aptitude for performing within their programs. The exam tests student's skills over a period of three hours. The lower level test is for kids in grades 4 and 5. Students in grades 6 and 7 take the middle-level ISEE, and grade 8-11 students take the upper level. One-on-one tutoring is a great way for students to focus on their specific studying needs. If your student is feeling overwhelmed by the amount of information they may need to study, the Varsity Tutors educational directors can help you locate an independent ISEE tutor in Lakewood, Colorado, for your child.
With private tutoring, it is easy to see where your child's weaknesses lie. At the beginning of your student's sessions, their tutor can conduct an assessment of the student's abilities. Once they've learned about your student's strengths and weaknesses, they can create a specialized curriculum that is centered around only your child's needs. In their curriculum they can use practice tests, worksheets, or any other materials the tutor believes could work well for your student. A Lakewood ISEE tutor can focus on your child's specific needs to create study sessions that drill on these topics. Even alternative teaching methods are available should your child respond better to those.
A tutor, using their teaching expertise and resources provided by them and Varsity Tutors, can explain any concept on the test. No matter the topics your student struggles with, their tutor can address it with them. If your student needs extra attention on sentence completion in the verbal section or algebraic equations in the math section, their tutor can identify this need and create a curriculum to drill on it. ISEE tutoring in Lakewood can cater to your student's needs and learning preferences.
Scheduling for your child's tutoring sessions is flexible. We can find a tutor who can meet at a time that is most suitable, and that doesn't conflict with classes. Sessions can be set up at a library or your child's home, or even face-to-face online, where your student and their tutor can share study time on a live learning platform. Whatever the case with studying and scheduling, Varsity Tutors can find your student a Lakewood, Colorado, ISEE tutoring that can develop a study plan designed specifically with them in mind.
