There are a number of career paths available to elementary education majors. One exciting choice is to go into enrichment education for gifted and talented students. In the US, it's not very common to advance children to a higher grade when they are working well above their grade level in some or all of their subjects. Instead, gifted programming is frequently offered, especially at the elementary level. If this is the direction you'd like to go with your elementary education career, Varsity Tutors can connect you with elementary enrichment tutoring to help you along the way.
Elementary enrichment tutoring can help you study this interesting subject in a number of ways, including:
- One-on-one attention - Your tutor can focus on you and your specific needs during each private session.
- Unique materials - Your tutor can get to know you well, which may allow them to develop study materials geared towards your interests and learning style(s).
- Real-life experience - Your tutor may come from an elementary enrichment background, complete with stories of their experiences and advice you may not get in class.
- Your pace - Your private elementary enrichment tutor can work with you at your speed, whether that means going through some subjects more quickly or taking extra time with some subjects.
These are just a few examples of how elementary enrichment tutoring can help you. Because you'll be working together with just the two of you, there are many opportunities for specialized projects. Your tutor may take you to visit an enrichment science fair at a local elementary school, and possibly chat with the enrichment instructor.
