How do I know if I need a SAT tutor?

You might benefit from having a SAT tutor if you’re having difficulty with various concepts or formulas, get constantly frustrated with SAT homework, or when your grades start falling behind. On top of that, having 1-on-1 tutoring sessions with a SAT tutor can help you to regain confidence and get back on track.

How to choose an online SAT tutor?

As you look over the list of online SAT tutors, pay close attention to the qualifications indicated on their profiles. From their profile descriptions to their education and work experiences to reviews from other students or parents, having considered these factors will help you choose an online SAT tutor that best suits your needs.

What questions should I ask a SAT tutor during the first meeting?

Common goals of hiring a SAT tutor are: to improve grades, simplify abstract concepts or complex notions and prepare for exams. Therefore, it’s important to ask your tutor questions, such as the process they use to help students they’ve worked with in the past; if they are familiar with your school’s curriculum; and how long they are willing to commit to helping you with your SAT class. You may get back on track after a couple of tutoring sessions or may need long-term help that could require a tutor staying with you the entire school year - this could also be discussed with them during the first meeting.

How much does a SAT tutor cost?

The price of a private in-person or online SAT tutor is set by each individual tutor. SAT tutor prices differ due to several different variables, including experience, university levels (ex. Ph.D. candidate vs graduate student vs bachelor’s degree vs undergraduate degree), demand, and teaching experience. No matter your budget, finding an experienced SAT tutor to help you with any SAT problem is easy with TutorOcean.

How does online SAT tutoring work?

When you sign up for online tutoring with TutorOcean, all your classroom sessions will take place in our exclusive Online Collaborative Learning Platform with live video conferencing and white-board technologies. The TutorOcean platform is a secure private learning environment that is accessible anywhere in the world where a reliable internet connection is available providing the ultimate tutoring experience. It also includes powerful features like a virtual whiteboard and video chat capabilities to facilitate a face-to-face study experience without the headache of a commute. Perhaps most importantly, our Live Learning Platform records every study session so that you can build up a comprehensive review library over time.

Are SAT tutors worth it?

Studies suggest that as many as eight out of 10 students can potentially benefit from private instruction, including children who are high-achievers. Not only can private 1-on-1 tutoring online or in-person help foster a deeper understanding of key concepts, but students can also be taught broader study skills that will be very useful in later school levels even into high school and college/university classes. The only way to truly discover the benefit of a private SAT tutor is to try a tutoring service for yourself. Take your time to meet several tutors to ensure you find the right fit, especially with regard to matching teaching and learning styles.

How can a tutor help me master SAT?

An SAT tutor can help you to recall more than just concepts of SAT, but to put that knowledge to use. A private tutor can help you to connect what you’re learning in school (at any grade level) with what you see and experience in your daily life. A private SAT tutor can help you review your academic concerns and create a study plan that highlights your strengths and builds on your weaknesses to help improve your grades. Book your first tutoring session today and discover how an experienced tutor can help you truly master all the key SAT concepts.

The Ohio State University

Need help with math, language, logic, science, or technology? I'm here for you!

Aloha, friend! My name is Lucas Jarrett, and I’m an online tutor! If I had to characterize my approach to helping people learn in simple terms, I would say that I believe education is a matter of teaching adaptability. The ability to adapt, or the capacity to change, is the fundamental skill of learning all things. We must always be prepared to adopt new ways of being. When we study life, we study the infinite, and when study the infinite, our mindsets must be similar, or else we will not see everything that we could have seen. To realize that learning is the art of changing is to begin learning everything more easily. My primary goal is to help my students see and apply this awareness when studying anything they hope to do well. I have professional experience teaching arithmetic, algebra, trigonometry, geometry, statistics, logic, algorithms, philosophy, physics, biology, history, psychology, music, billiards, writing, research, literature, English, Java, Python, HTML, CSS, SQL, and more. Furthermore, I’m happy to offer insight into cognitive habits that often bring academic trouble, such as perfectionism, procrastination, arrogance, inattention, hyperactivity, and anxiety. In any case, I always strive to inspire the infinite sort of learning that enables all extraordinary knowledge. I tutor many subjects not listed here, so feel free to ask about anything. I like interesting projects sometimes! 🙂

Subjects: ACT, Computer Science, Critical Thinking, Logic, Math, Natural Sciences, Object Oriented Programming, Philosophy, Psychology, Reading, SAT, Sociology, Statistics, Web Development, Writing
