...switch up visual/auditory/kinesthetic approaches, and also try to ground things to reality: why learn something in the first place? For me I generally need to connect new information to old information; find a point of solid understanding and trace a path from there. My earliest education was hanging around the newspaper where my father worked, where I developed a critical eye while looking for typos. I received a Bachelor's degree in music theory from Binghamton...

Knowing and practicing the material is important, but there are many other things students can do to prepare as well. In my spare time, I love to play volleyball with friends, read (especially a good fantasy novel)...

"I am so adjective, I verb nouns." I believe relationships are more important than test scores, and people more important that numbers, budgets, or grades. But if we have to play along with this this game, we may as well play with skill.... The guiding question I always ask myself while teaching is, "How can I support students to face their challenges and fears so they can take on cultural activity that awakens rather than anesthetizes...

Certified PSAT Tutor in Tucson, AZ
...English is another favorite subject of mine. I generally approach tutoring as an opportunity to teach students how to study and learn rather than to teach them information directly. This means that I ask a lot of questions and help students find the answer on their own. Hence, my goal with tutoring is to help the student develop enough skill at learning to make the tutoring unnecessary. I am currently working toward a Bachelor's in...

Tucson PSAT Tutoring FAQ
The Preliminary SAT, or PSAT, might seem like a lighter version of the actual SAT, but it's actually an important test in its own right. It's the first experience many students have of the gateway exams that can determine their post-secondary futures, and it can be tremendously useful from a feedback perspective. It's important to remember, however, that the PSAT also affects National Merit Scholarships and guidance counselor interventions in terms of university preparation. All in all, there are definite advantages to doing well on the PSAT.
Taking a test preparation course to get ready for the PSAT is better than studying alone, but it will still give you a one-size-fits-all approach to your studies. You won't get much personal attention, and you'll have to move at the pace of the class regardless of whether it's too slow or too fast. An expert PSAT tutor in Tucson, AZ, could give you the chance to learn only the concepts you need slowly and gradually until you thoroughly comprehend them. Best of all, you'll have direct input as to the content of your sessions. If there are portions of the test that you feel you can move through at a quicker pace, the decision will be entirely up to you.
In terms of general content, Varsity Tutors will find you an expert tutor in Tucson who can create engaging sessions so you enjoy preparing for the PSAT. With no class to consider, your private instructor can design lessons wholly suited to your learning style. What's more, the delivery of these lessons can also be tailored to your schedule. You could choose the times and days that you prefer. You can even study PSAT topics like U.S. and world literature, standard English conventions, or advanced math in the comfort of your own home or anywhere else you find convenient.
Varsity Tutor's online live learning platform will even let you receive face-to-face tutoring over the Internet, without having to physically go anywhere. You'll get all the benefits of a tutoring session, with the ultimate flexibility of a distance learning approach.
