I believe education increases one's own sense of ability and self-worth. Because of this, I aim to inspire interest and excitement in my students, not simply teach them...

How can a tutor help you with summer tutoring?
The summertime is known for family trips, summer camps, softball leagues, and more. One thing that summer is less popular for is summer learning loss. Every summer, students who don't revisit material they learned during the school year at least once a week lose approximately two months of information. With a summer tutor, your student can explore alternative ways to learn material of different subjects. Varsity Tutors can help match your child with a tutor that can help them avoid summer learning loss. Summer tutors in Los Angeles, California, can help your child retain the information they learned in school.
Math is the most common subject to forget during the summer. Often, six weeks of fall semesters are spent revisiting material from the previous year. If your student struggled with remembering how to work with fractions, decimals, order of operations, or other math topics, they can also go over these topics in engaging ways. A game of hopscotch out on the sidewalk is a great way to review multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. Learning in the summer doesn't have to be a drag when Los Angeles summer tutors can make learning fun and engaging.
