Boston Tutoring Services
! We are excited to continue our monthly newsletters of tutoring tips, helpful reminders, registration dates, and special offerings.
Welcome to May!
Spring is finally here! It's been a long and rough winter, and we are excited that the snow is finally gone and trees are starting to bloom. Because of the weather, it may be hard to believe, but summer will be here before we know it. If you have not yet enrolled your child in summer camp, it's not too late. See below for some great options.
We also recommend getting started on ISEE and SSAT test prep, if your child will be testing next fall. The summer is a great time to get started, because the fall can be so overwhelming. Tutors do book up in advance, so contact us to reserve the perfect fit.
give us a call at 781-248-4558.

It's Not Too Late to Bring Up Spring Semester Grades
* Is your child finding it challenging to keep up with assignments and manage their time, projects, and school work?
* Does your child lose materials, miss assignments, or have difficulty keeping track of large projects?
It's just as important to have strong study skills and organization as it is to understand the academic subject matter. It is impossible to achieve good grades if your child is always anxious about keeping up and staying on top of things.
We have tutors available to assist your child with all aspects of study skills and organization.
If your child is diagnosed with Executive Functioning Delays, we also have Special Education Certified tutors.

Is Your Child Going to Take the ACT or SAT
Test this Spring?
Plan for your child to take a standardized test at least twice to give them the best chance of a high score.
The next SAT will be May 5th and then June 2nd.
The next ACT will be June 9th and then July 14th.
Our tutors have been fully trained in the new content
and test-taking strategies of both the SAT and ACT tests. We focus on time-management and customize our instruction to meet the needs of each student.
If you are not sure whether your child should take the SAT or ACT, please see the article below.
SAT vs. ACT: Choose Wisely
We often see students who feel more comfortable with one test over the other, so if you have the time to start early, we can create the best action plan for them moving forward this spring.
