Mountainview SSAT Tutoring FAQ
The Secondary School Admissions Test (SSAT) is geared for students in grades 3 - 11 who are seeking admission to private elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools. Three different levels of testing include elementary, middle, and upper. The exam is comprised of four sections: quantitative, reading comprehension, verbal reasoning, and an optional essay. The exam is offered once a month from October - April. One additional test date is offered in June. SSAT tutoring can help with preparation for this exam. If your child is preparing for the SSAT, Varsity Tutors can assist you in finding an experienced tutor in Mountain View, CA.
We'll find your child a hand-picked SSAT tutor in Mountain View, CA, who will love what they teach, which allows them to make study sessions engaging. Studying for a standardized test can be a tedious process for your child. However, when the tutor brings a creative flair into the tutoring sessions, learning becomes fun and information is retained more easily. The learning process becomes even more effective when your child is given a tutor who has a personality well-suited to him or her.
One-on-one tutoring in Mountainview can afford your child the ability to fine-tune his or her SSAT skills by asking questions and getting immediate feedback. Having the freedom to ask questions of the tutor will be an invaluable resource to your child as he or she is trying to fully comprehend the concepts to be tested on in the four sections. The tutor could help your child improve writing skills so that he or she excels in the essay section. That portion of the exam is not scored. However, the admissions departments utilize those essays to assess writing skills. Your child might be able to get immediate feedback from the tutor on how to try to improve writing skills. Additionally, the open communication between the tutor and your child could help hone his or her skills in math concepts, reading comprehension, and verbal reasoning as well. Working with an SSAT tutor might make all the difference in fine-tuning your child's skills.
All tutoring will be completed at a convenient location in a one-on-one setting so that your child could increase his or her chance of scoring well on the SSAT.
