The Los Angeles School System

Did you know that Los Angeles is home to more than 1,200 public schools in addition to the numerous private schools in the city? As with most larger cities, there are some schools that offer stronger academic programs, but gaining admission to these schools can be challenging. With about 640,000 students in public schools alone, navigating the Los Angeles educational system can be stressful for parents and students.

In-home or online tutoring can help you or your child set themselves apart from the crowd. Private tutors in Los Angeles can assist with challenging college coursework, as well as elementary school homework assignments - or with specialized test preparation for exams such as the ACT, ISEE, SAT, and the CAASPP.

Here's a breakdown of SAT test scores in Los Angeles. How does your student measure up?

Los Angeles Test Scores

The CAASPP, or California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress, is unique to California. This is an entire system of assessment exams implemented to get an ongoing and accurate picture of a student’s academic progress.

An expert Los Angeles tutor can help students master the core curriculum, learn new test-taking strategies, and increase their overall academic confidence. Many of the CAASPP tests are still being developed, with new pilot tests being rolled out semi-regularly. It’s hard to know what exactly to expect, so it’s important for students to work on the subject matter and their general comfort level with taking standardized tests.

Tutoring review by Alonso in Los Angeles, CA
This was the final session before his test on Wednesday. We worked through a sheet dealing with PDFs and CDFs of the binomial and geometric distribution. Took some time but he gets what the definitions are and how you can translate a word problem into a mathematical statement.

Tutoring review by Natalie in Los Angeles, CA
In today session,  the student  focused on her homework and subtraction.  She showed me that they are starting fractions. In her homework today,  she had subtraction and addition with two digits, telling time, counting money, and word problems. After her homework, we practiced subtraction.  She  hard a time  remembering to  subtract instead of add.  She drew out pictures for most of the problems. When practicing addition she  showed 100% improvement.

Tutoring review by Nicole in Los Angeles, CA
The student and I studied for his final. We went through the entire study guide. We focused heavily on prepositions because he was struggling to memorize them. I left him with the assignment to write them out 10 times (in alphabetical order) to help him remember the accusative and dative prepositions. I also asked him to review the definitions of the separable verbs on the test. He did well with the personal pronouns in all three cases and understands what each case means and how to identify it in a sentence.

Tutoring review by Drew in Los Angeles, CA
The student and I started our session by reviewing a problem from the homework I assigned her. I then covered the topic of rotational motion, including angular velocity and linear velocity, as well as arc length and the definition of the radian. We then covered the basics of vectors, including magnitude, direction and horizontal/vertical components. We used an online vector simulator to cover these topics, and to learn about vector addition. After practicing a few vector-based velocity problems, we moved on to position, velocity, and acceleration graphs. We used an online simulator to create some graphs and cover the different properties of the 3 types of graphs. I assigned homework for her that covers all of these topics that we reviewed.

Tutoring review by Susie in Los Angeles, CA
We reviewed how to solve limits as the x approaches negative or positive infinity as well as limits that approach infinity. She had a little bit of trouble understanding the behavior of the limit as x approaches infinity, but as we solved more of them, she became much more comfortable with the conceptual part of it. This will be an important skill as we move on to the behavior of derivatives as well as more complex limits, especially ones involving trigonometric functions and logarithms. She will continue and finish the remainder of the chain rule homework for me for the next session, and we will cover some review next week before her first test on limits and continuity.
