Rockville SSAT Tutoring FAQ
A strong performance on the SSAT, or Secondary School Admissions Test, can be a key part of your child's efforts to be admitted to an elite private school. The test evaluates students for competitive middle and high schools, and the results carry significant weight with their admissions boards. Attending a well regarded secondary school is impressive to selective colleges and universities, so your child's performance on the exam is important. Preparing for the test can seem overwhelming, but Varsity Tutors can help you find a tutor in Rockville, MD, who is an experienced professional skilled in working to help students try to understand the intricacies of the SSAT.
The test is presented in three different versions, with their respective difficulty adjusted to the current grade level of the student in question. Whether your student is taking the elementary, middle, or upper level test, they can expect to see questions evaluating their quantitative, verbal, and reading comprehension abilities. They'll also be expected to complete an essay on an assigned topic, which, while not graded, is reviewed as a writing sample at the schools they apply to. Gaining a command of all the subjects tested on the SSAT requires discipline and focus. An expert SSAT tutor in Rockville can develop a personalized plan to make the best use of your child's study sessions.
In addition to creating a plan that focuses on your student's strengths and weaknesses, the one on one instruction a private tutor provides helps your child learn in many ways. Without other students to worry about, your child's tutor can spend all the time necessary to explain topics your child may be struggling with. They walk your student through practice tests, helping them understand how the questions are structured and how to identify the right answer. The mentoring your child receives will build their confidence and prepare them mentally for examination day. Varsity Tutors' experienced educational directors are happy to help parents of students in Rockville connect with a qualified SSAT tutor who might help their children reach their goals.
Private tutors are flexible, and make themselves available for morning or evening sessions. They come to your home, meet your child at the library, or even host a session face-to-face online. Keeping exam prep convenient is part of their commitment to your student.
