Middle School Writing Tutoring FAQ
While elementary school students generally focus on the mechanics of writing, middle school writing teaches students how to write with a purpose. If your child is struggling to expand their horizons beyond what they were taught in elementary school, Varsity Tutors can connect you with an experienced middle school writing tutor who can help the student in your life realize their academic potential.
Here are some of the skills that may be reviewed during middle school writing tutoring sessions:
How to structure written work in a logical way
Reviewing English grammar and word choice
Tailoring a piece to its intended audience
The differences between narrative, descriptive, expository, and persuasive writing
Incorporating literary techniques and rhetorical devices to make writing more effective
That can be a lot to remember for middle school students, but they can learn it all with the right assistance. Your child's middle school writing tutor might begin by teaching their pupil how to outline their thoughts before they start writing anything. Not only does this simple step make it more likely that the final product has a coherent structure but it's also a great way to make sure that you do not forget anything you wanted to include.
Students can also review literary techniques during their middle school writing tutoring sessions. A tutor may make flashcards illustrating several of the most popular techniques for a visual learner, including examples to make it easier to visualize using the technique in question. Alternatively, a recording that an auditory learner can listen to whenever they need may help them learn the information efficiently.
Middle school writing tutoring sessions are also a great place for a student to catch up on their reading. One of the best ways to learn writing is to look at how other people do it, so reading can demonstrate the value of techniques such as varying sentence structure to a novice. Reading is also a proven method of boosting a students vocabulary, giving them more choices when expressing themselves. Most importantly, analyzing who the intended audience was for a given work can help students choose the style that best fits the purpose of their next written assignment.
