…York University. While I enjoy discussing a variety of subjects, tutoring math, history, and political science are perhaps most appealing to me. I find that the act of explaining something to someone else helps me to understand it on an even deeper level, and I find that almost as gratifying as helping someone discover something new. The best thing about tutoring is helping someone to discover, or rediscover, the joy of discovery in themselves.

Receive personally tailored HSPT lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with the best tutor for your particular needs while offering flexible scheduling to fit your busy life.
Students are able to take the High School Placement Exam, or HSPT, in the 8th grade. The test is administered by independent schools and is commonly favored by Catholic schools. It spans 300 questions, with an allotted two-and-a-half hours to complete it. Though your child has two opportunities to take the exam, it is best to take it once and perform as well as possible because the lower of the scores may be accepted.
