Tucson HSPT Tutoring FAQ
The High School Placement Test (HSPT) is required for admittance into many private schools. The HSPT consists of about 300 questions and your child could be given about two and a half hours to complete the entire test. It is administered exclusively by private schools twice a year to 8th-grade students, once in the fall and again in the spring. This is an important test that can be the determining factor in whether or not your child is accepted into a desired private school. An expert HSPT tutor in Tucson, AZ, may help your child potentially meet their studying goals.
There are several versions of the HSPT that your child could be given, but they all comprise the same subjects and types of questions. The five main test categories for the HSPT are language, math, quantitative skills, reading, and verbal skills. If your child is struggling with one or more of these topics, let Varsity Tutors help you connect with a talented HSPT tutor in Tucson who is truly excited about the HSPT and teaching it to others.
An experienced tutor will take the time to discover your child's specific strengths and weaknesses. This allows the tutor to design a custom learning plan to quickly and effectively target your child's individualized learning goals. One of the main benefits of working with a private tutor is the freedom it gives the instructor to teach using a variety of methods based on the learning style of your child. In addition to covering the subject area content your child may be struggling with, tutors are also able to provide test-taking strategies to help try to improve overall performance in the testing environment. Many children find the process of completing a timed exam to be more intimidating and challenging than the actual content of the test. Varsity Tutors' educational directors are experienced at helping students in Tucson find independent HSPT tutors to make the process less intimidating.
Tutors work with families to allow scheduling flexibility. They are available mornings, afternoons, and evenings during the week and on weekends. They can meet with your child in a public setting such as a coffee shop, school campus, or library, or they can make the appointment in the family home. If finding the time to meet in person is challenging, tutors are also available for interactive face-to-face online sessions. An expert HSPT tutor in Tucson, AZ, could help your child potentially reach their best.
