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?"
Students from across the country take the Preliminary SAT (PSAT) to prepare for the SAT college admissions test. These students typically take the test during their 10th grade or 11th grade year, but another version is available for 8th and 9th grade students. The National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT) version of the test is used to determine which students can compete for a prestigious National Merit Scholarship.
If your child is interested in taking the PSAT, a few one-on-one sessions with a private tutor could help them prepare for this important test. Varsity Tutors will hand-pick a PSAT tutor in Salt Lake City, UT, who can work with your child's individual learning style, abilities, and personality. An experienced PSAT tutor could offer specific processes for each type of question your child can anticipate seeing on test day.
The PSAT consists of two components: a math section and an evidence-based reading and writing section. The math section includes questions on algebra, data analysis, and problem solving. The reading and writing section includes questions on following the command of evidence, interpreting informational graphics, and understanding text complexity. A knowledgeable PSAT tutor could show your child how to answer each type of question, discover which choices are incorrect, and find the correct answer.
An expert PSAT tutor in Salt Lake City could help your child develop a study plan to make good use of their time. Many parents spend their money on test prep classes for their children prior to the PSAT. Although teaching in a classroom is not without its uses, a personal PSAT tutor can give your child the individual attention they need to succeed.
An experienced PSAT tutor can also handle a problem that might lead to poor outcomes during important exams: test anxiety. While most students have a firm grasp on the skills the PSAT covers, they may "tighten up" under the stress of an exam. The PSAT tutor can work towards getting your child ready for the test by running drills that feel like the real testing session.
Personalized PSAT instruction in Salt Lake City, UT, could allow your child to develop a rapport with their tutor to facilitate the learning process. Your child can connect with a tutor during in-person sessions after school or on weekends at a time and place of their choosing. They can also connect through our online live interactive learning platform.
Let us help you find PSAT tutoring in Salt Lake City to try to help your child prepare for their test.
