[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do families ever hire tutors to prepare for the BASIS comps?  Are there tutors in the area who specifically specialize in BASIS comps tutoring?  Based on a different thread regarding comps, it seems some students barely study compared to others so I know there’s a range of experiences.  Just wondering if tutoring is at all common or if the students essentially rely on the school and perhaps study groups to prepare?[/quote]

Yes, some families do, but they probably don't advertise it. I doubt there are tutors who specialize in BASIS comps tutoring. We continue to use the same great Outschool writing tutor we started with in 6th grade, when in-person learning wasn't an option. She's not expensive and does a better job than the English teachers our children have had at school (classes are too big for strong writing instruction). We work in STEM fields and tutor for math and science ourselves, often with another family that lives a few houses down from us. [/quote]
