Private PSAT Tutoring in Hoboken, NJ
Receive personally tailored PSAT 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.
Your child is set to take the Preliminary Standard Aptitude Test (PSAT), and your biggest wish is for him or her to excel. The best strategy is to build skills and confidence to help them excel on this test and on the forthcoming SAT for college admissions. Educators agree that the best advantage for scoring well on PSAT is private one-on-one tutoring. Call Varsity Tutors' educational directors today to find expert PSAT tutors in Hoboken, NJ.
There are three versions of the PSAT. The PSAT-NMSQT is given in the fall of 10th or 11th grade, and is also known as the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. A student's score will likely determine National Merit Scholarship eligibility. The PSAT-10 is the same as the previous test. It is given in the spring of 10th grade, but is not used for scholarship qualification. The PSAT-8/9 is given in the fall or spring of 8th or 9th grade. It is an assessment of student progress. For test success, we can find an expert PSAT tutor in Hoboken who can work at a time that's convenient for your child. The two-hour and 45-minute PSAT has two components: evidence-based reading and writing and math. The reading section has 47 questions to complete in 60 minutes. The writing section has 44 questions for completion in 35 minutes. The math section has 47 questions to complete within 70 minutes. Because students sometimes miss the intent of a question by reading too fast, your child could rehearse many sample questions so they get it right on test day. All of the tutors that Varsity Tutors can connect you with in Hoboken are skilled in teaching the concepts of the PSAT.
To thoroughly prepare for the PSAT, your tutor can first assess your child's strengths and weaknesses, then prepare a custom study plan. The plan is flexible and changes as your child understands each concept. If your child needs review, the tutor can drill the essentials again to reinforce the learning. Tutoring is not just for students needing extra help. Top-rated students use private tutoring to sustain their academic edge. Great PSAT scores set the stage for excellence for the SAT. Parents and students find private tutoring to be convenient and flexible. All dates, times, and locations are of your choosing. You can meet at home, in the library, or any public venue. If your child prefers private study, they can access an online learning platform to interact with their tutor. Try to maximize your child's productivity by calling Varsity Tutors' educational directors in Hoboken, NJ, to find an expert tutor for the PSAT.
