Cambridge SSAT Tutoring FAQ
The Secondary School Admissions Test, or SSAT, is the benchmark administrators of competitive schools use to assess the abilities of children. It is given in formats for students in grades 3-11. Your child may therefore take the exam if they are looking to get into a top elementary, middle, or high school. While the elementary version is 1 hour, 50 minutes, the other two are over 3 hours long. These multiple choice tests can therefore challenge your student in ways they are not accustomed to. Getting from point A to point B may be illusive. Anxieties can certainly get in the way as well. Varsity Tutors' experienced educational directors are happy to try to help your student in Cambridge, MA, connect with a qualified SSAT tutor, who can try to help them pursue their goals.
The SSAT tests grade-level math, including operations, algebra, geometry, measurement, and probability. Your child's vocabulary and analytical skills will be tested as well, not to mention their reading comprehension. They will need to know how to write. Even though the essay portion is not scored, prospective schools will see the sample as the kind of writing your child is capable of.
Knowing these things is not enough. Your child has to be able to demonstrate their full potential. Their tutor's instruction can focus on any weaknesses, and target them in customized lessons. It can also concentrate on studying and test-taking skills, concepts that must equally be understood to score well on the SSAT and other standardized exams. If your child needs a more thorough, directed, and efficient study plan, find an expert SSAT tutor in Cambridge today by contacting Varsity Tutors' educational directors.
An expert SSAT tutor in Cambridge can help your student reach their maximum potential. The instructor can work at your child's pace, and assess how well the study plan is working. Alternative teaching methods and study tools can be tried along the way, until your student is confident in their skills and readiness.

Tutors can meet at school or at home, or wherever your child is most comfortable, at a time that doesn't conflict with classes, other exams, or activities.
