Receive personally tailored
Middle school—traditionally grades six through eight in the United States—is an important transitional stage in the American education system. It is also a tumultuous period, as students grow increasingly self-aware and test societal boundaries. It is a time thus marked by academic, emotional, and social change, and many students may struggle with schoolwork as a result. Varsity Tutors recognizes the uniqueness of middle school students, and our offices across the nation offer middle school tutoring directly suited to the specific needs of your pre-teen.
Navigating middle school can be difficult for students and parents alike. Our tutors can serve as both mentors for students and support systems for parents. From the first moment of sixth grade to the crowning moment of eighth grade graduation, one of Varsity Tutors’ middle school tutors in your area can guide your student each step of the way. Students must learn to organize their personal belongings as they move from subject to subject and teacher to teacher. Our tutors can help your student develop methods to remember his or her assignments, books, and notes for his or her numerous classes in a potentially overwhelming schedule. Is time management an issue for your child? Middle school tutoring can address this crucial skill and assist your child in developing key approaches to prioritizing school work in the most efficient ways. Students must also learn to examine texts critically, to integrate information from multiple sources into bigger assignments (i.e. research projects), and to persuade and support their arguments—in short, to think as high school students do.
