Peabody SSAT Tutoring FAQ
The Secondary School Admissions Test, or SSAT, is administered to students in grades 3-11 and is used by the admissions boards of private and highly selective schools throughout the country. The test is given in three different forms, upper, middle, and lower, depending upon the grade level that the student is entering. All scored sections are multiple choice, though there is an essay section that, while not included in the overall score, is sent to the school of intended application. With the competition for admission into prestigious schools getting more and more fierce, having a great score on the SSAT could help give your student the edge. The first step to getting your student to that point is employing the help of an SSAT tutor.
Varsity Tutors' educational directors can find you a SSAT tutor in Peabody, MA, who can work at your pace. One of the main benefits of having a tutor is the one on one attention that it affords. Your student could get instant feedback on their performance, and a tutor may be able to see strengths and weaknesses early on. This allows for a more personalized learning experience that could set your student up for success come test day. Contact our educational directors in Peabody, MA, today to find SSAT tutors to try to help you address all of your problem areas.
Our experienced educational directors will assist you in connecting with a professional tutor in Peabody who could help you prep for the SSAT. Tutors know the test backward and forward, and keep up to date on all changes in format and scoring, meaning your student won't walk in on test day surprised. They'll know just what to expect and could have the tools necessary to excel.
Being flexible is another great benefit of having a tutor. Because your student meets one on one with their tutor, meetings can take place anywhere and at any time that is convenient for both parties. This means that meetings can take place at the library or your own living room. If in person meetings are simply not possible, your student can take advantage of the Varsity Tutors online platform, making tutoring sessions possible at any time.
Getting a great SSAT score is one of the first steps to helping your child work toward future academic success. Let us connect you with a talented SSAT tutor in Peabody who is truly excited about SSAT and teaching it to others.
