Adult Academic Support Programs
Are you getting ready to take your GRE, SAT, or GMAT and have trouble
with the math portion of the exam? The Fort Washington YMCA is
offering one-on-one tutoring that focuses specifically on the math
portion. The GRE section teaches basic math where content doesn't go
beyond a junior high or early high school level; the SAT math portion
measures a student's ability to reason quantitatively, solve
mathematical problems and interpret data presented in graphical form;
the GMAT test wants to measure your ability to solve problems, not
your ability to memorize methods for solving problems. The instructor
will arrange a time that is convenient for you and your busy
schedule. Call 215-641-1245 for further details.
Teen Academic Support Programs
Is your teen having trouble with AP Chem., AP Physics or AP
Calculus? One-on-One Tutoring in these areas is being offered at the
Fort Washington YMCA. AP Chemistry tutoring is an introductory course
for students who have had little or no experience with high school
chemistry or did not perform well in the chemistry placement exam. AP
Physics is intended as a preparation for College Physics or General
Physics. Basic concepts, problem solving and mathematical skills are
strongly emphasized. AP Calculus is for students to brush up on
previously learned math skills in preparation for high school
Calculus AB and BC. For more information call 215-641-1245. |
