Steps to Becoming a Tutor
"Ideally, I like to structure my lesson plans to take advantage of
those times when I have a tutor in the room, allowing them to work
directly with the students with hands-on activities. This is helpful
for me, for my students, and gives tutors an invaluable opportunity
to build their confidence in working with students. At the end of
the semester, I consider our partnership successful if the tutor
walks out feeling equipped to take the next step in their professional
development because of confidence and skills developed during their
time in the classroom and if my students and myself have a genuine
sense of missing their presence in our room."
