...and Government. After working briefly in politics, I decided to go into education, and since then I have spent time working in a charter school, as a private English tutor in Madrid, and with both private and non-profit academic support and enrichment programs. Over the years I've taught just about every subject. I love helping students develop a positive, can-do attitude in relation to subjects that used to make them feel anxious and confused. (In...

Shannon: Silicon Valley Summer tutor
Certified Summer Tutor in Silicon Valley, CA
...I think based on the amount I have tutored and my overall experience, my favorite subject to tutor is math because there is always one, and only one, right answer. Through effective communication and patience, the student is not only able to learn the mathematical process, but also the ability to think analytically. I would say that my tutoring philosophy is based on encouragement and always validating the opinions of the student before steering the...

Indeed, I have a special place in my heart for the LSAT, and I think it's a test that becomes much more manageable with a lot of practice and a solid understanding of its mechanics. I just moved to the Bay Area from Alaska, where I clerked for a judge in Dillingham, a remote town accessible only by plane. Needless to say, I love the outdoors, and when...

I also love to laugh, and because of that, I try to make sessions light hearted,...

Summer is truly one of the year's most exciting seasons. For students, it means a break from the grind of the school year, offering a welcome respite from the challenges of the past year. However, with this break comes a problem. Specifically, while students are relaxing and not engaged in their education, they're also more prone to losing the knowledge they worked so hard to gain during the previous school year. This is known as summer learning loss, and it could lead to valuable classroom time next year being spent relearning last year's material. If you have a child in school who you'd like to see retain the knowledge they've already learned, one great way to get them there is by having them work with a private tutor. That's because a skilled professional tutor in Silicon Valley, CA, can give them much needed one-on-one attention. You can call the educational directors at Varsity Tutors to begin the tutoring process.
You can sign your child up to work with a professional tutor who specializes in whatever field they need the most help in. This help comes in the form of targeted lesson plans that take the biggest weaknesses of your child into consideration, and then helps them gain the tools they need to try to overcome. Through this, you'll find that they are not only able to retain the information they already know, but that they're also able to gain a better understanding of the topics they struggled with the most last year. A tutor we can find you in Silicon Valley could help them improve their study skills, attain better self confidence, and exceed their educational goals for the summer.
Another great part about working with a tutor over summer is getting to choose both when and where they meet with your child. That could mean at your house, the park, or anywhere else you know your child could be able to focus. You can even set up an online tutoring session, which comes in the form of a face-to-face meeting with their tutor. So let us find you a skilled summer tutor in Silicon Valley who can show your child how to push past their limitations, all while accommodating both of your scheduling needs.
Through this flexible schedule, a targeted lesson plan, and more, your child's tutor will ensure that they enter the next school year ready to build on what they've already learned, not relearn the same material. Our educational directors can help you connect with a private tutor in Silicon Valley, CA, who is experienced in helping students stay sharp over the summer. Call us today, and ensure your child has a successful next school year now.
