If you are getting ready to prepare for the ACT, Varsity Tutors can help you find the right Dallas - Fort Worth ACT prep solution. Our classes have been created by experts and provide a group learning experience, or we can help you connect with a professional ACT tutor who can work with you privately. Whether you are a freshman at a school like Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas and you want to take the test early, or you're about to graduate from a school like Carroll Senior High School and time to prepare is running out, we can help.
The fact that you are even thinking about leveraging professional assistance in your preparation efforts is a great sign that you're taking the ACT seriously. Many students have no idea how important the test can be to their academic future. Many colleges use student scores on the ACT as part of their admissions criteria, so making sure you study effectively for the test should be a top priority. Let's take a look at what the ACT covers and how professional Dallas - Fort Worth ACT preparation can help you.
What can Dallas - Fort Worth ACT prep cover?
Your mastery of four key subjects will be evaluated on the ACT. The subjects you will be tested on include Math, Reading, Science, and English. You will have a total of just under three hours to complete all four sections of the test, but the time is not divided evenly between the four. You have 60 minutes to complete the Math section, 45 minutes to complete the English section, and 35 minutes each to complete Science and Reading. You can work towards improving your ability in any of these subject areas as part of your ACT prep.
If you intend to take the ACT Plus Writing, you will also need to prepare for the 40-minute Writing section of the test. As part of your preparation for this section, you can review analysis, comparison, drafting, organization, and other general writing skills.
What are the benefits of taking a Dallas - Fort Worth ACT prep class?
As you prepare for the ACT, it's essential to remember that time management can play a critical role in your testing strategy. You must manage your time with care as you work through each section of the test if you want to have enough time to answer all of the questions. And make no mistake, it is crucial you answer all of the questions. There is no penalty for guessing, and an educated guess is better than a guarantee of losing points, which means you need to make sure you leave time to answer them all. Working with experts as you prepare for the test can help improve your time management skills and provide other testing tips to help you feel more in control on test day.
When you're ready to get started, you don't want to have to wait weeks or even months before the first day of class. That's why all of our classes are broken down into individual segments, and new segments begin each week. You can even choose the duration of your preparation experience. We offer two-week and four-week classes, so you have the time you need to work towards your learning goals.
Your class is a completely online experience, but it won't be unfamiliar. You will meet with your instructor and peers in a digital classroom and interact with them much like you would in a physical classroom. Your instructor will discuss the lessons with the whole class and facilitate group projects and discussions. Engaging with other students who are learning the same material and facing the same high-stakes test can help you solidify the content you are reviewing effectively.
How is working with a Dallas - Fort Worth ACT tutor different from taking a course?
Working with a private tutor gives you a level of individualized instruction that is simply not possible in a classroom setting. No matter how engaged a classroom teacher is, they do not have the capacity to work extensively with each student. When you work directly with a private instructor, on the other hand, you have their undivided attention. Your personal instructor can take the time to really get to know you. They can discover your learning style and educational needs and use that information as the basis for the lessons they will present in your study sessions. Individualized instruction means you will not spend time reviewing concepts you've previously mastered, and you can focus your attention on working to make progress on your learning goals.
Another benefit of working with a private instructor is an increased level of scheduling freedom. When you sign up for a class, you must choose a predetermined time. This makes sense because all of the students and the teacher need to know when to arrive. But these classes are usually held when it is most likely to be convenient for the greatest number of students. When you work with a personal tutor, you can schedule your sessions at times that are most convenient for you. Sessions can be scheduled throughout the week and on weekends during the morning, afternoon, or evening.
If you have a busy schedule or you know you only need to target key skills as part of your ACT prep, then private tutoring may be the perfect solution.

...a Master's student at Cornell University. I graduated with my Bachelor's of Science from Cornell in 2016 and I plan to attend medical school in the fall of 2017. I am really excited to be tutoring for Varsity tutors because I really enjoy helping students with subjects that gave me trouble in school. I hope that my time spent developing strategies to learn and absorb the tough material can help you succeed.... I think the key to understanding is context. I remember learning dense science material in one class that only made sense after I took the next class. Once I was able to see the big picture, the smaller details started to fall into place. I try to always draw back to the big picture so that a student always understands what they are learning and how it relates to other material.

Kim: Dallas ACT test prep instructor
I am able to determine what obstacles are preventing a student from grasping a concept, and create different means of overcoming those obstacles. Creating a partnership with the student and understanding what he or she needs to overcome is what makes me a great tutor. ... I would talk with the student and/or his or her parents to learn what each hopes to achieve from the tutoring sessions. I would ask what they've tried, what they liked, and what they didn't about their previous efforts. Then I would work hard to provide a good deal of value in that first lesson so that we can continue to work together.
