Nassau County PSAT Tutoring FAQ
Has your teen mentioned to you that they debating whether or not to take the PSAT, and you just aren't sure what to tell them? While there are several PSATs offered to students today, if your teen is in 10th or 11th grade, then they are likely facing the PSAT/NMSQT. Taking this version of the PSAT is the important first step to qualifying for several college scholarships, including the National Merit Scholarship. As a parent, you know how important it is for your child to potentially earn each and every scholarship they can to ease the impact of their college expenses on your budget, so urge them to not only take the exam, but prepare for it well, so they score as highly on it as possible. The educational directors at Varsity Tutors could help you find Nassau County, NY, tutors to create a study plan to try to help your child do well with the PSAT exam to increase their chances of being awarded a National Merit Scholarship!
Your child's tutor will know that they don't want to spend more time studying for the PSAT than they have to, because every 10th and 11th grader is already working hard to keep their classroom grades high while also participating in extracurricular activities. When your child prepares for their exam with a professional PSAT tutor in Nassau County, NY, they can hone in on just the test areas they may struggle with to keep study time quick and efficient. While the exam takes about 2 hours and 45 minutes to complete, it only contains three sections: evidence-based reading, writing and language, and math. Each section has strict time limits, especially the writing and language portion; your child must answer each question on this section in under 45 seconds! There are also some math problems they must solve with just paper and pencil in less than 90 seconds! This means that even if your child's knowledge is very solid in each subject the test covers, they need to learn how to answer each question and solve each equation very quickly. Individualized PSAT tutoring in Nassau County could help your child understand their test time-management skills, which will not only help them on the PSAT, but on all future timed exams as well!
You can easily connect with a qualified PSAT tutor in Nassau County by contacting one of our educational directors. Your child's tutor can meet your child at any time most convenient for your family, even early in the morning or late in the evening. Your teen's tutor can also meet them any place most convenient for your busy teen, such as at your home, at a local library, or even at that ice cream parlor your teen loves to visit after basketball practice. Alternatively, your teen can study with their tutor completely online using the Varsity Tutors' Live Learning Platform, where they can interact face-to-face with their tutor as they prepare to excel on the PSAT!
