100% Tutor Satisfaction Guarantee
At Varsity Tutors, we're committed to connecting you to top tutors capable of delivering an outstanding experience. That's why we provide a 100% tutor satisfaction guarantee.
Varsity Tutors is a powerful educational resource that can set you up with a qualified Dartmouth tutor in as little as 24 hours. Many students enter college thinking that the difficulty will be comparable to their high school studies only to be surprised by how rigorous academics can be. If that describes you, investing in formal Dartmouth College tutoring can be a great way to get the academic edge you need. Please keep reading to learn more about the advantages associated with working with a private instructor.
How can a college tutor near me at Dartmouth College help me make the most of my educational opportunities?
If you're like most students, the first thing you do when you start to feel puzzled in class is to raise your hand for extra help. Your college professor would probably love to assist you, but the realities of teaching so many students in such a limited time frame often limit how much help they can provide. A private Dartmouth College tutor can act as a supplement to the education you receive in the classroom by reviewing concepts with you at your preferred pace.
For example, your instructor can keep explaining psychological concepts to you if you're struggling with an adolescent psychology class. Alternatively, a private instructor can skim over anything you're already comfortable with to keep your Dartmouth tutoring sessions as productive as possible. Unfortunately, the typical classroom instructor doesn't have the freedom to adjust their pacing to any individual student's needs.
A Dartmouth College tutor can also teach to your innate learning style to make it easier for you to grasp challenging concepts. For instance, an aural learner might repeat information to themselves to help it stick in their mind, while a visual learner could get more out of a chart highlighting important bits of information. If you learn best from experience, you can also complete practice questions during Dartmouth College tutoring sessions to reinforce your skills. There is no ""wrong"" way to study, so why not choose a learning method you're comfortable with?
Your Dartmouth tutoring sessions can also take place in a one-on-one learning environment that revolves around your needs, enhancing your study efficacy. You are the only pupil your instructor is responsible for during your study sessions, so any questions you have can be answered before you start to feel too confused. In fact, many academic mentors encourage students to ask questions to expedite the learning process. A private Dartmouth College tutor can also review material with you more quickly than a classroom teacher who has more work to grade.
You can even go over your broader academic skills during Dartmouth College tutoring sessions. For example, writing a research paper can be a nightmare if you don't know what you are doing. Your instructor can teach you active reading techniques to help you understand academic journal articles and cite them in your work. You can also review how to create a Works Cited page if you don't understand the difference between MLA and APA citation styles.
Can a college tutor at Dartmouth College help me study for tests?
Whether your final exam is coming up or you're a little apprehensive about a unit test, a private instructor can help increase your self-confidence heading into your exam. Mindfulness strategies such as meditation can help you calm down if your mind starts racing during an assessment. Your instructor can also make you practice tests to give you an idea of what to expect from an exam. For example, working within the same time constraints that will be present on test day can help you learn how to budget your time accordingly.
Many college-level assessments have essay questions, so outlining skills could also prove useful on test day. Sketching a quick outline gives you something to refer back to if you forget what you wanted to say next, helping you avoid writer's block. Following an outline can also help you remember to include all of the supporting details.
Can I reach out to a college tutor near me at Dartmouth College today?
We understand how busy your schedule is, so we try to make private instruction as accessible as it can be. We handle all of the research that goes into matching you with a great instructor so you can trust all of the information you receive. We can also set you up with your choice of in-person or online tutoring to best meet your needs.
If you choose online sessions, you'll meet your instructor on our user-friendly Live Learning Platform instead of commuting someplace. If you're concerned about the quality of instruction you can get online, don't be. Powerful features such as a shared document editor allow your instructor to monitor what you are doing at all times, allowing them to intervene as needed. All of your study sessions are also recorded automatically, so you can always go back and review something you still don't understand.
Varsity Tutors would be happy to find you a private Dartmouth College tutor in as little as 24 hours, but you need to take the first step. Reach out by phone or online today to get the process started!

Recent White Plains Tutoring Session Notes
1. Wrote entire homily for Speech class. He paralleled some gospel story to the story of King Arthur. Only the hard copy is due the next day but the student doesn't have speech class (he has Spanish instead) that day.
2. Brought a green folder with brads and pockets. Supervised while the student made the dividers and then checked his Lit binder for all rough drafts that were supposed to be in there.
3. Study pack, Social Studies (most of it was done - he had left only a page's worth of the more reading-intensive work to do).

Today the student and I started with Chemistry and ended with Algebra 2. We did a 2 page worksheet on writing empirical formulas of compounds given a percent composition of the elements present. We then went on to work on his math assignment for the weekend, looking at the transformation of functions when multiplied by a coefficient or translated up/down or right/left. The student understood all of this very well and did many problems on his own. Overall a great session with much improvement and understanding.
