Kirkland Summer Tutoring FAQ
Varsity Tutors is here to try to help your child stay sharp with their knowledge this summer. Our educational directors in Kirkland, WA, will find your child a great summer tutor who could work to help them be prepared on the first day of school. Summer learning loss is a big issue for students, and it can affect them as early as the first grade. When students don't study over the summer, they can lose a significant amount of knowledge, to the point where it takes them up to 6 weeks of the fall semester simply to relearn the material they've forgotten. Over time, this can create a learning deficit of 2 to 3 years between students who don't study at all over the summer and students who do. However, your child can prevent summer learning loss with about 2 to 3 hours of studying per week. One way for your child to study over the summer is with a qualified summer tutor who could keep them on the right track.
Varsity Tutors' educational directors will connect your child with a summer tutor in Kirkland who could help them pursue their goals. Your child could get plenty of positive reinforcement during their tutoring sessions, both to keep them motivated and to build their confidence in their knowledge.
We can locate a summer tutor in Kirkland, WA, who can complement your child's learning style. Summer tutoring sessions are more flexible because there are no assignments or tests coming up, so your child's tutor can encourage them to explore topics of interest. Getting to choose some of the things they learn about helps your child stay engaged and enjoy their tutoring sessions. Of course, the tutor will also have your child practice materials from the previous school year. To make that more exciting, your child's tutor can incorporate fun games and activities.
We can find your child an enthusiastic summer tutor in Kirkland who can motivate them to exceed your highest expectations. To make things as simple as possible, you can set up tutoring sessions anywhere, including in your home, at the Kirkland Library, or even out at Heritage Park so your child is still able to enjoy the summer weather while they're studying. Varsity Tutors even has face-to-face online tutoring sessions available, which you can set up through our live learning platform. Call Varsity Tutors today to make sure that your child is ready when school starts again.
