Tutoring FAQ
Do your tutors help with every section of the SSAT?
We have some tutors on staff who can cover all four sections of the SSAT
(Essay, Verbal, Math, Reading) and some who specialize in either the verbal
or math. We will work with you to find a tutor who will be the best fit for
your needs. During a tutoring session, you can choose to cover all four SSAT
sections or just focus on the areas that you need particular help with.
How long are your tutoring sessions?
Our SSAT tutoring sessions are typically 2 hours in length. Of course, we
are flexible and we can extend the tutoring session if requested.
What is covered in a typical 2-hour tutoring session?
Every tutoring session is different. We completely customize our sessions
to the needs of the student. A typical tutoring session might include an overview
of the SSAT, building unfamiliar concepts, working through practice problems,
or reinforcing tips and strategies.
How much tutoring do I need?
For students without prior SSAT preparation, we recommend the 26-hour tutoring
program. However, you may build a custom program that fits your needs and
budget. The factors that you should consider when determining how much tutoring
you need are your score improvement goal, the amount of time before your SSAT
test date, and your budget. For our 26 hour program, we see on average a 150
point improvement in the student and it takes approximately 2.5 months to
complete if scheduled on a weekly basis.
How much homework do you assign?
At Ivy Global, we understand students are busy with school work and extra-curricular
activities. During the session, the tutor will discuss with the student on
how many hours they can devote to SSAT preparation and will assign an appropriately
level of homework for the student. For weekly sessions, a typical level of
homework may be 1-3 hours per week.
When can I arrange SSAT tutoring?
SSAT tutoring can be arranged on both weekdays and weekends. The dates and
times (Monday-Sunday: 10am-9pm) are very flexible and depends on the availability
of our tutors. Most students arrange tutoring on a weekly basis, but we can
also accommodate less frequent tutoring as well as intensive preparation.
How do I sign-up for tutoring?

each of our tutors engaging and effective as instructors. If for whatever
reason you are not satisfied with your tutor, please contact us immediately
