你是looking to get more help in a subject you find particularly challenging before the next school year starts? Are the summer months the only possible time for you to devote your full time and attention to studying for an important exam? Summer does not need to just be about leisure and relaxation. It can be an excellent opportunity to continue your education.
The average American student loses one to two months of academic progress during the summer. In a society that increasingly tests your skill set quantitatively through admissions tests such as the LSAT, MCAT, GMAT, GRE, SAT, and ACT, along with many others, this regression can be highly problematic at all levels of education. Summer tutoring can help you stay sharp, even when classes aren't in session. Don't let all the hard work you put in over the course of the school year go to waste and fade away during the summer months.
