Charlotte SSAT Tutoring FAQ
If you're thinking about sending your child to a private high school or middle school, then the time to prepare for admissions is now. Many prestigious private schools require that students take the Secondary School Admissions Test, also called the SSAT. This test determines whether or not the admissions department considers a student academically compatible with the school. Since most students coming from public schools aren't familiar with this test, many parents turn to SSAT tutoring to increase the chance of higher test scores. Varsity Tutors' educational directors can help you connect with a professional SSAT tutor in Charlotte.
There are three levels of this standardized private school exam: The Elementary level, which is for 3rd and 4th graders; the Middle level, which is for 5th, 6th, and 7th-grade applicants; and the Upper level, which was created to test the skills of potential students in 8th grade or higher. All levels contain the same three main sections: Verbal Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, and the Quantitative section. There's also an essay question, which isn't scored, but will be sent to the private schools your child applies to that require SSAT scores. A quality tutor will scope out the areas where your child needs extra help and design a tutoring curriculum that focuses on those areas. Our educational directors will match you with an SSAT tutor in Charlotte who is knowledgeable in a host of alternative teaching methods to best teach to your child's particular learning style.
Why should you turn to an SSAT tutor to try to help your child excel on this exam? Tutors, unlike teachers, are experts at maximizing one-on-one learning time. This could help to assure that your child learns at her/his own pace, yet learns effectively. Oftentimes, classroom distractions can hinder learning for some students. Tutoring sessions potentially eliminate outside distractions often found in classroom settings. Tutors are trained to motivate students, so they're encouraged to continue thriving when they do well and pushed to try harder when they fall short. Plus, because of the 1:1 student-teacher ratio, your child's tutor figures out quickly where he/she needs to put more focus. Call us today to find SSAT tutors in Charlotte, NC, to try to help your child prepare for their exam.
Don't send your child in to take the SSAT test unprepared. This might leave her/him unconfident, potentially leading to a low score. SSAT tutoring sessions can be held in your home, or another place that's convenient for you. Your child can also have face-to-face online sessions over the Web. So, call our directors at Varsity Tutors to find you an SSAT tutor in Charlotte, NC, who could help your child work to try to attain more confidence going into the SSAT.
