Josh: San Ramon PSAT tutor
Certified PSAT Tutor in San Ramon, CA
My favorite word is "why." And why is that, you may ask? Well, I am subject to a never-ending flow of knowledge because I perpetually wonder why. The search for answers to any question beginning with "why" has taught me everything I know -- and put me in a position to disseminate my knowledge to other people. Tutoring is the best possible way for me to do that.

San Ramon PSAT Tutoring FAQ
Students can be apprehensive about taking the Preliminary SAT, or the PSAT. This is understandable since everyone understands that it's a practice test for the SAT. Some children worry that if they don't do well on the PSAT, it means they won't do well on the SAT either, and their college plans will be in jeopardy. Don't let this sort of testing anxiety consume your child. At Varsity Tutors, we can provide a solution. Let a skilled professional tutor in San Ramon teach your child all he or she needs to know about the PSAT.
