Summer is in full swing, but the first day of school will be here before you know it!
Here at AJ Tutoring, we are working with thousands of students over the summer to prepare for upcoming tests like the PSAT, SAT, and ACT; to enrich understanding of core subjects like chemistry, math and US History; and to deep dive into a host of diverse curricula that you can learn more about here.
Because many students find their schedules jam-packed when fall comes around, it often benefits those who have a bit of time towards the end of summer (even a few free weeks) to come in to AJ Tutoring, refresh the mind, and get a preview of upcoming content.
If you’d like to discuss how we can help your student prepare for fall semester, please give us a call today!
Read on to find a few examples of how you can make the most of the last precious weeks of summer.
