Award-Winning GRE Tutors serving Vancouver

Private Online GRE Tutoring in Vancouver

If you're looking to enter a post-graduate educational program you may be required to take the GRE, and Varsity Tutors can help you find a GRE tutor in Vancouver who can offer guidance as you prep for this important exam. The GRE is used by top Canadian schools, including some departments at schools like Simon Fraser University, and is used by many United States schools as well. The test covers a lot of material, and you may feel unsure of how to begin studying. A lot may be riding on your GRE scores, so finding extra resources to draw upon as you prepare can be a good idea, and a Vancouver GRE tutor can offer you direct feedback customized to fit your abilities.

GRE tutoring in Vancouver can help you come to grips with the three sections of the GRE: Analytical Writing, Verbal Reasoning, and Quantitative Reasoning. Analytical Writing will ask you to create two essays, one analyzing a specific issue, and another analyzing an argument. You'll have 30 minutes to complete each of these pieces of writing. In both cases, you should be able to demonstrate an ability to write clearly and concisely about complex topics, to support your ideas with evidence, and to structure your writing well. For the Verbal Reasoning section, you'll have to read and interpret passages to answer related questions, fill in blank sections of short passages based on context, and use partial information to deduce the endings of sentences. Quantitative Reasoning aims to test your math and logic skills in content areas like algebra, geometry, and data analysis. You'll have to apply both mathematical knowledge and problem-solving skills to excel in this section.

The GRE covers a lot of different types of material, and it's likely that you have strengths and weaknesses that vary from subject to subject. One of the advantages of private tutoring in Vancouver is that it can cater to your individual needs as a learner. Where a classroom would require you to move at a uniform pace along with your classmates, a Vancouver GRE tutor can examine your skills across several sessions and draw up a plan of study customized for you, so you won't have to spend time on concepts that you've already mastered, and you can take the opportunity to really dig in to material that you find difficult. If you feel like you've already got a handle on the Quantitative Reasoning section, your instructor can primarily work with you to develop techniques that can build your confidence in the writing section, for example. At 3 hours and 45 minutes, the GRE is lengthy, and in addition to studying content material, GRE tutoring in Vancouver can help you come to understand the structure of the GRE itself, so you can work on test-taking skills that can help you keep your focus and stay on pace.

You'll be able to get lessons that account for your preferences as a learner, so if you find that auditory notes help you learn best, your Vancouver GRE tutor can record your lessons and provide them to you, or if you're more visually-oriented, you can work with flashcards. Individual attention from a Vancouver GRE tutor can make scheduling a lot easier, too. These convenient online sessions allow you to see, hear, and speak with each other using our video chat platform and you can use a virtual whiteboard to facilitate your lessons.
