Fairfield Summer Tutoring FAQ
Summer can be an academic nightmare for students. Most children lose up to two months worth of math skills during the few months of break, which can add up to be a two or three year mathematical deficit. It doesn't take much to prevent this huge amount of learning loss; just a couple hours a week of study will prevent it. Thankfully, Varsity Tutors could help your child maintain their current educational level or even get ahead of the rest during the summer months! Varsity Tutors can find your child an enthusiastic summer tutor in Fairfield, CT, who can show them how to make learning fun.
Our educational directors in Fairfield will find a summer tutor for your child who can work with their learning style and abilities to prevent a loss in skills. The tutor can be suited to your child's personality, promoting a good student-tutor relationship that is not hindered by potential personality conflicts. We can also find your child a tutor who has similar interests, making the sessions focused on activities the young student enjoys. Not only will this make the lessons more enjoyable, but it will also make them easier to understand and retain. A child who loves dinosaurs could practice writing about the different types, while a baseball lover may enjoying learning about the physics involved in catching a ball. Engaging sessions encourage your budding scholar to enjoy learning and do it on his or her own outside of sessions.
A summer tutor in Fairfield can be the key that unlocks your child's potential. The review can be structured or unstructured, with math games or reading assignments. A tutor can assess the child's needs and focus on the topics they struggle with most, potentially even allowing them to get ahead during the summer months. Sessions can happen anywhere, at the time that works best for you and your child. A younger one can learn to count trees in the park, while an older child may prefer drilling math problems at home. A tutor could take your child to the library to pick out a new book, or could even help them with a summer assignment online through the Varsity Tutors face-to-face live learning platform!
You don't have to let your child fall behind during the summer. Varsity Tutors can locate a summer tutor in Fairfield, CT, who might help your child maintain or increase their academic abilities while encouraging the exploration of new topics.
