...a hard time remembering concepts and terms. I had a near perfect attendance record, but still struggled with performing well on tests. I thought to myself, why was this happening? Students have so much pressure to perform well on standardized tests. We cram with flashcards, pull all nighters, and even sacrifice our social time to prove to the world that we retained what we learned that year. But are we *actually* learning? My goal as...

CLEP Introductory Psychology Tutoring FAQ
The CLEP, or College Level Examination Program, offers the opportunity for students to take one of 33 tests for introductory level courses and earn college credit by passing them. If you are able to pass even one CLEP exam, you can save yourself a hundred or more hours of classroom and study time, as well as more than $1,000 in tuition costs. Nearly 3,000 colleges and universities in the US accept CLEP credit. If you've reached this page by searching for, "CLEP introductory psychology tutoring near me," you're in luck. Varsity Tutors can connect you with CLEP introductory psychology tutoring to help you earn your best possible score on this exam and get into the nitty gritty of your degree program more quickly.
With help in your CLEP introductory psychology prep, you'll have the chance to study the following topics covered on the exam with someone who knows their way around the test:
Learning theory and models
Developmental psychology
Personality
Psychological disorders and treatment
History, approaches, and methods
Biological bases of behavior and social psychology
Sensation and perception and states of consciousness
Cognition, motivation, and emotion
It's likely that you'll be connected with a CLEP introductory psychology tutor who has taken the exam. They may not only be able to help you with the content on the test, but also the best strategies to use while taking it. They may use practice exams to help you learn to spot trick questions that must be read very carefully to make sure you are answering the question correctly. For example, while most test questions ask you to find the correct answer, some questions might ask you to find the answer that is incorrect. CLEP introductory psychology tutoring can help you spot tricky wording and not get caught.
You may be familiar with some of the study tools available to potential CLEP test takers, and these are undoubtedly helpful, but studying with a one-on-one tutor can be much more effective. Your CLEP introductory psychology tutor can give you practice exam sections and immediately score them to see what you need to study more and what you are already proficient in. They can then provide you with materials, examples, and additional instruction to improve your score the next time around.
Give yourself the best chance on your exam by working with Varsity Tutors to connect with high school CLEP introductory psychology prep assistance that's available when and where it's most convenient for you. Contact us today to start.

In my second session with the student we spent most of the time (after going through his homework sections) going through the techniques and tools for the Critical Reading sections- the importance of annotation and underlining the passages, identifying transition words, how to approach the Sentence Completions, etc.), and doing practice items together from Test #2.
The student and I finished reviewing his practice ACT Reading, Science, and Writing sections today. The student did very well on the Reading and Science tests, and his few mistakes were easy to address. I have assigned another Writing prompt for the student to do before he goes on vacation next week.
Covered 4 types of deceptive answers and practiced with them. The student is strong with this. Practiced science tips. The student is strong in reading. We practiced graph passages.
Completed an entire SAT test from the prep book. The student had his best performance to date, answering quickly and accurately. He's retained all the concepts from earlier sessions and, consequently, has greater confidence. He is omitting very few questions and using elimination to make educated guesses when he is unsure. The student has continued to study vocabulary and is doing well on the synonym questions, too.
We worked on a critical reading section, 2 math sections and one sentence correction section. The student did the best on the latter, and has made excellent progress there. I need to target the sentence completion section and look for ways to improve the student's progress there.
We worked on reviewing one English passage that the student had completed prior to our meeting and then we worked on one math section and one writing section together. The student's scores on long passages are improving and he got a perfect score on one this time.
