11th Grade Tutoring FAQ
Junior year is arguably the most important year of high school. It is the last full academic year recorded on transcripts and sent along with college applications, and it is often when students begin taking multiple upper-level or Advanced Placement classes. It is also the year in which most students take college entrance examinations like the SAT or ACT. With such an extensive junior year to-do list, it is natural for students to experience greater amounts of academic difficulty than they have in previous years. If your high school junior wants to improve his or her academic performance, consider hiring a private tutor.
Junior year is much more than its course load, which typically contains math, science, English, a foreign language, and history. During this year, your child may also be preparing for the SAT or ACT, as well as AP exams and SAT Subject Tests. 大象传媒 can help you connect with a tutor who can develop a customized tutoring plan to help your student address his or her areas of need. Your tutor will take your student's learning style and particular academic requirements into account when creating an individualized lesson plans to help your student succeed.
Additionally, a private tutor can be a major boon in terms of helping your child prepare for standardized tests. While a private tutor can certainly help them with course material that may be on the exam, they can also give them helpful study- and test-taking tips. They can help give your child some insight to the types of questions that are likely to be on the exams, and teach them how to manage their time effectively so that they can make sure that they do their absolute best.
From a studying standpoint, a private tutor can teach your child how to study effectively. Everyone has a different method of studying that works best for them. Figuring out what exactly that method is can take a long time, if it ever happens at all. A private tutor can ensure that your child finds out the most effective way to study based on their strengths, weaknesses, and learning style. This will not only help your child with their current courses and standardized tests, but also throughout their academic career as they enter college.
Beyond simply helping your student with course content or test prep, 11th-grade tutoring can help your student sort through junior year by keeping him or her organized and focused. Together, your student and tutor can create a standardized testing and college application plan that fits with his or her specific academic course load. Navigating how to coordinate the SAT, AP Exams, and SAT Subject Tests alongside final exams and extracurricular activities is often tough, but an experienced tutor can guide your student through every step of this process. From signing up for the right tests and scheduling study time to learning the right material and understanding standardized testing strategy, your private tutor will have you and your child covered.
Junior year is a busy time, and experienced tutors know the rigors that these students face. Tutors are flexible in finding times and places that work for your student. They can accommodate you and your child's choice of time and location, including weekend and evening options. 大象传媒' live learning platform even enables you and your child to meet their private tutor face-to-face online. This gives you and your child a lot of flexibility because it lets you decide the time and place that works best for everyone involved. If your student needs some assistance navigating through junior year, call 大象传媒 so that we can help connect you to the perfect tutor for your child.

Recent 11th Grade Tutoring Session Notes
Today we mostly started studying for his Forensics final. We also did a review sheet for Fahrenheit 451. I did a brief trig lesson to fill in a couple of missing pieces for the exams, such as interest rates and trig identities. I am going to test him on these concepts tomorrow.
Today we covered chemistry. We went through the first three chapters of the chemistry text, covering matter, measurement, and the basics of chemical reactions and stoichiometry. The student soaked in the material quickly and did not seem to struggle. I left her with about 10 practice problems per chapter.
Covered functions, domain and range, slope, basic transformations (translations, reflections, and dilations), and independent and dependent variables. She was a little shaky with the terms used to describe different graphs (linear, exponential, quadratic, etc.) and solving equations (in terms of isolating the variable and solving for it). We worked on that and will continue to strengthen that factor.
For this session, our first of this new semester, the student and I spent time going over his schedule and each syllabus he was given by his teachers. We set up a plan on how to approach this new year and began to work on assignments that he had been given earlier in the week. I am very excited for this year, and believe he is going to continue on his past improvements
I reviewed four of the student's college application essays. We discussed the advantages of using his common app essay about experiencing failure and his other essay about comparing apples and oranges using statistics. I argued that both these pieces exuded a stronger sense of the student's personal evolution and interpersonal strengths as well as provided insight into his problem solving process/intellect. My edits were broad and question-driven to encourage the student to expand particular points or examples. However, I critiqued all four essays in the event the student chooses to use these prompts for other college applications. I asked him to review these edits over the next several days. I expect him to return with expanded detail in the areas we discussed as well as any questions he may have about my edits/suggestions.
This session we covered some basic material about kinematics with a constant velocity. Everything seemed to go smoothly. At this point, the algebra involved is fairly simple, although since the physics class runs parallel to a pre-cal class the student is currently taking I think she should be able to keep up just fine.
