Burbank ACT Tutoring FAQ
Colleges use American College Testing (ACT) scores for merit-based scholarships and admissions. The Act's test structure consists of a math, reading, English, science, and essay (optional) section. Without the essay, the test's duration is two hours and 55 minutes, and it is three hours and 40 minutes with the essay. If you are currently a high school upperclassman and you're looking to apply to colleges, contact Varsity Tutors' educational directors for help connecting with ACT tutors near Burbank, CA. In order to be successful on the ACT, you will need to complete four reading passages and one science section testing your critical thinking skills. You also will need to complete one math section testing your arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry skills. If you choose to participate in the essay section, you will be evaluated on how well you analyze complex issues. If you have difficulty with any of these subjects, an expert ACT tutor in Burbank, CA, is an excellent way to try to help you prepare for your exam.
Working with a private and professional tutor will be one of the best tools in your ACT studying toolbox. With a private tutor, you may be able to work at your own pace. You could be given every opportunity to take a subject a little slower and ask all of the questions you may have. You also will be given one-on-one attention. This means your tutor will act as your own private teacher, which may allow you to go over topics as many times as you'd like until you have a firm grasp on the information you're learning. Your private tutor will also try to help you create goals and objectives. Let's say you are struggling with solving triangles in the subject of trigonometry. Your private tutor could help you come up with a plan to try to make sure you overcome your confusion within a certain time frame. Your tutor's priority is to try to help you pursue each one of your goals so that you might feel very confident and self-assured in all subjects on test day.
We could help you find expert ACT tutors in Burbank whose goals are to maximize your potential on the exam.
