Orange County Summer Tutoring FAQ
Summer vacation gives kids a chance to take a break from the school year and just be kids. While this can be valuable for their personal development, it has its downsides. The gap in regular study is responsible for what is known as summer learning loss, where students have issues retaining what they've previously learned. It is estimated that a child can lose two months of math and reading progress over the break, which over time can add up and lead to a significant gap in achievement. Thankfully, it doesn't take much to prevent these effects; just two to three hours of weekly review has been shown to keep students on track. Varsity Tutors' educational directors in Orange County, CA, can locate a tutor who might help your child keep his or her educational momentum through the summer and beyond.
Each child has different subject areas that will need special focus. We could help you connect with a private tutor in Orange County who is experienced in helping students review exactly what they need to over the summer, and even work to try to improve. A profile of your child's needs, problem areas, interests, goals, and even hobbies will be passed along to his or her new tutor. This allows for customized lessons that target the skills the student most needs help with, while also keeping him or her engaged and entertained. In addition to more structured review, sessions may include math games and puzzles, reading from books on your child's favorite topics, unstructured learning activities, and more. A skilled professional summer tutor in Orange County can give your child much needed one-on-one attention that can help him or her grasp concepts that may have seemed too difficult in the classroom.
