I'm going to 8th grade this next fall, and I've been taking advanced classes ever since I was in 7th. In 8th grade, I'll be taking 9th grade math and science.

I took Pre-algebra in 7th grade, so now in 8th grade, I'll be taking Algebra.

You know how you take 3 month of summer off and waste it? Well, I was wondering, is there a way were you go to some kind of tutor that could teach me Algebra during my 3 months of summer so I'll be ahead of my classmates once I'm in 8th grade?

Do tutor companies have to follow some kind of rule that say they have to teach students the subject grade level that their in, and can't teach them more advanced subjects if they desire?

For example (I know this is a lot, sorry) if I want to be ready for 9th grade, can I go to a tutor company and ask them to teach my 9th grade level classes? Or do they have to follow a rule where they can't teach my ahead of others?

THANKS!

The best way to find a tutor is to have one recommended by a school teacher. You should probably talk about it with your parents, too. Tutors don't teach you or not teach you something because of your age, but you have to be a bit on algebra level already in order for them to teach it to you, or you have to be having trouble in school. Another way to find a tutor is to just Google one! Hope this helped.
