Josh: Silicon Valley PSAT tutor
Certified PSAT Tutor in Silicon Valley, 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.

Silicon Valley PSAT Tutoring FAQ
help your child be ready for their upcoming PSAT exam by contacting our educational directors in Silicon Valley to get the help they need today. All versions of the PSAT offer great opportunities for your child to showcase the knowledge and skills they have acquired throughout their academic careers. While studying well for any version of the PSAT they are facing, such as the PSAT 8/9, PSAT 10, or PSAT/NMSQT, could help them perform well on the exam, the process of studying for the exam will also refresh their knowledge of all of those important topics they have studied in the classroom that they may have forgotten, and this can give them a great edge in their later classes.
Earning a great score on the PSAT/NMSQT could help your child qualify for many scholarships, including a National Merit Scholarship. Varsity Tutors' experienced educational directors are happy to help students in Silicon Valley, CA, connect with a qualified PSAT tutor who might help them work toward their goals, no matter which version of the PSAT they are facing.
Even if your child is typically great at studying, they may just not know how to study for a PSAT. Unlike most standardized tests they have taken in their academic careers, their teachers won't focus class time on PSAT-preparation, like most do when their students are soon facing state tests. Contact our educational directors today to try to help you find a professional PSAT tutor in Silicon Valley, CA, who will form a personalized PSAT study plan for your child that could help them not only prepare for the PSAT version they are taking, but also learn study skills they can use on all future important exams.
Your child's tutor won't have a one-size-fits PSAT all study plan ready-made when they meet your child, but they will instead first learn what you and your child would both like to get out of your child's study sessions. They can study for just one section of the test you know your child is likely to find challenging, or they can prepare your child to understand the entire exam. The PSAT 8/9 assesses your child's skill in reading, writing & language, and math. The PSAT 10 and the PSAT/NMSQT both contain the same two sections: evidence-based reading & writing, and math. If your child is like many students, they may feel ready to tackle one portion of the test , yet need help to understand another.
You can get connected with a skilled PSAT tutor in Silicon Valley by contacting Varsity Tutors. Your child's tutor can meet your child any time of morning, afternoon, or evening that fits best into your child's busy schedule, and meet your child at any place convenient for your family. Alternatively, you can instead opt to have your child work with their tutor completely online, yet with engaging face-to-face interaction, as your child prepares to excel on the PSAT 8/9, PSAT 10, or PSAT/NMSQT!
