TIPS FOR BECOMING A BETTER TUTOR
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- Hi Friends,
Today I will be sharing the best tips I have come across in my many years of being a tutor. I have been a tutor since eighth grade and these are the tips that I have accumulated through my tutoring experience and from my students.
Step 1: Teach confidence to your students. The more confidence they have in the subject the better they will do.
Step 2: Be Supportive. You need to create an environment that promotes learning and being supportive of your students is the best way to create that environment.
Step 3: Bring in real world examples into your sessions. The more students can relate the subject to the real world the more they will be interested in learning.
Step 4: Don't be Cocky. You are not better than the student. Cockiness is always very noticeable and it comes off as being condescending as well.
Step 5: Remember you are in charge. Just as you should be supportive , you should expect your students to be supportive and respectful as well.

Im planning to tutor kids these days, thanks for the tips
I just got a message asking me if I can tutor, this helps calm my nervousness and excitement at the same time
Insightful!
A word on "cockiness." Sometimes knowledgeable people may be exasperated, especially when it seems like their students aren't really paying attention. My strategy for this, although it may seem odd, is to help with subjects with which I wasn't originally proficient myself. That way, I can relate. I do tend to get "cocky" though, if I'm working with a student in an area which I feel I've always been proficient. Students' preferences may vary, though. I personally don't mind someone with a not-so-great attitude who can teach a subject very well. I think an instructor's competence is the most important, and I may even prefer a "cocky" instructor, because he / she has confidence. On the other hand, an instructor who is too easy-going and laid back may be someone who doesn't know the material as well as I would like.
That is a very good observation. Thank you for sharing. I love that you will tutor subjects that you weren't originally proficient in to be able to relate to your students. I tutor math because I wasn't the best at it in my primary education. You are also right that a students preference of how their tutor behaves will vary from student to student. The tutor definitely needs to be knowledgeable about the subject and it is easy to get cocky when you have taught a subject for so long.
as a tutor in australia, I also find it hard to not feel like this is easy and the student does not know. It is difficult to try and put yourself in the student's "Shoes" sometimes.
secondly, while I try to use apples and oranges. some topics dont have real world examples. And also say "Great" when they solve a difficult problem. You did well and things like that
Do you tutor because you are not making alot of sense here to be completly honest with you
A teacher should be cool and laidback and still motivate the student there is no need to be cocky
Cocky tutors are the reason why im not a ceo yet
I’m in grade 9, and I’m tutoring a grade five French immersion student who skipped grade four French. I did my first tutoring session on Friday, and I didn’t really know what I was doing. This video helped me quite a bit.
Ellery Nelson I am so glad that this was so helpful for you. Good luck with tutoring. If you have any questions please let me know. You can email me at danielleconnolly@makethemmainstream.com
you're awesome :) thank you for the tips. I've been tutoring a long time but its good to be reminded of these things. Tutoring is as much about the sort of connection you have with your student as it is about the material you're teaching
I'm actually need to start tutoring a friend of mine soon. This video is really helpful since I really do want to help him and I don't want to let him down
Good luck! You are going to do great :)
Tutored a few kids that my mum knows and am thinking about starting it as a side thing as I was quite good at it

Amazing video. 🙌🏾 well done on being a great tutor. I have a feeling that I will ace my tutoring job interview.
Thanks for the pointers, I just became a tutor and hoping I learn a lot from it
Thx! I’m assign to tutor children under the grade 3!
This video was really helpful in me mentally preparing myself! I have mandatory tutoring hours that I need to get, but I’m really nervous about it. I’m going to keep this checklist in mind while I get ready!
Hey! I'm curious - how are your tutoring hours going?
Because I'm really nervous too about preparing myself.
Be in CHARGE!
so important! Can't let your students walk all over you.

I don’t know where to start. I’m in grade nine and feel comfortable tutoring elementary students but I don’t know where to start. Does anyone have advice?
Thank you so much! Im in middle school and me and my friends are starting a tutoring business! This is gonna really help :D
Great video and advice ☺🖒
helpful video for the most part, an item that stood out for me, her mentioning that her student can go to her for other subjects, like personal stuff other than math, i dont think that is appropriate , a tutor is there for a special reason, the subject and only that, positive thoughts and support is absolutely fine, yet to a certain limit,
Im a twelve year old in 7th grade and my principal asked me to be a tutor ,so i said yes while i had no idea of how to do the job ,so this was very helpful.
Angel, that is so amazing! Congratulations. I am so happy that you found this helpful. I started tutoring in junior high as well. Let me know if you have any more questions!
@@MakethemMainstream So I have a question. Im fairly short and not sure if the students will take me seriously and be motivated enough to do their work. What sould I do? P.S. theres 3
Angel,
I understand. I am 5ft 2, so I completely understand the concern. You just have to remember that you are in charge of the situation. Make sure to stay in charge, and be firm when necessary. Let the students do group work and have them do work separetly as well when they are trying out problems. The students will recognize your authority, you just have to believe in your own authority.
@@MakethemMainstream thank you😊
You seem to be a cool 😎 tutor. I tutor smart 6year olds, not so smart 10 and 11. Thank you for the mantra. How can I help students that forgets our lessons
Haha thank you! My students don't always think I'm cool :p. It is really about repetition. A lot of younger students struggle with retention. My suggestion would be to start a lesson with a couple things you covered from the previous lesson and end every lesson with a re-cap of what you covered that day. Also, make sure that the students are engaging with you (ie shouting out answers, writing down concepts, repeating things back to you). Good luck!
Gonna start tutoring next month, I'm super nervous. Thanks for the tips!
Thank you for this video! I’m looking to start tutoring to get my volunteer hours, and I have no clue what I’m doing, so this was very helpful!
Helpful 👏

I’m in my schools student council, and It’s one of our daily jobs to tutor the younger grade levels. So thanks for this video, I start tomorrow!! 😁
You are so welcome! I am so happy that it helped! Good Luck!
Thanks I feel a lot less anxious now
Thank you so much for sharing these great tips! I found them really helpful. Thanks again!
I am a sophomore and I'm tutoring a freshman tomorrow. Hope it goes well
Mate your talks are effective but ur eyes are mesmerising😍😍😍
Are you mated
Thank you
cant thank you enough for the tips, quick question, do you have any quick tips for teaching students the same age as you? I am teaching math and english, subjects I have always been proficient in, but I dont know if thats enough to teach someone else my age
Yes, definitely! I have tutored people my age a lot. I have even tutored people who are older than me. Basically, just go into the situation without even addressing their age. Don't make a big deal out of it. People who are seeking tutors, don't typically care what your age is, they only care about your experience. Your students are looking for help, and people who are aware enough that they need help are aware that others could be further along in that subject than they are. Comand respect by coming in prepared and coming into the situation as the expert. I hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any more questions.
Really good tips, thanks a bunch!

I personally do think sometimes it can be okay to be jokilly cocky. Me for example, every now and then I'll ''grill'' a student when they make a very dumb slip up, and I think it can also ease off tension especially for new clients. Being up your own arse is a bad thing for SURE, but having a bit of banter can forge a good relationship with them at the same time.
Do you ask the students what they want help with or do you structure how you’re going to teach them the course and plan past paper maths questions to do with them?
At the very first session, I always ask what they are struggling with and ask for copies of past tests and homeworks. It is important to tailor everything to that student because that is the beauty of private tutoring and what they are paying for. You come with your expertise and then tailor each lesson to the student. You can always course-correct along the way
Hey! Thanks again for the great question. In my new online course, How to Be a Tutor, I walk you through what to do in your first tutoring session and beyond. We address this question and give you the resources you need in order to approach each student with confidence, to make sure they are receiving the personalized education they need.

I'll be tutoring a second grader few hours from now. I hope im not too late for this.
I’m a 6th grader tutoring a 5th grader tomorrow!
I wanna be a tutor that's some great money
can you make a video on how to keep the studen enganged? especially if its elementary students?
I am a 7th grader and I am going to start to tutor 2nd and below and I am so nervous
I think I want you as a tutor
I’m tutoring my nine year old sister on Monday
I’m a sixth grader starting to tutor a second grader and I’m kind of scared. I know it’s just second grade work while I’m doing high school work in my classes. But I’ll be really embarrassed if I can’t do it🤦♀️ My brain keeps telling me that I can but I just have this itching feeling and I’m scared lolll.
You are going to do amazing! If you are taking high school classes, and you are in 6th grade, you are very qualified. But it is okay to forget how to do some things. I am constantly looking up how to do something in a tutoring session. It is much better to say, "I am not sure how to do this, let's find out together." and give them the correct information, then to pretend you know what you are doing. Plus, teaching a topic is much different than learning how to do it. If you need any help, please let me know :)
Hey, I hope that itching feeling went away as you started tutoring. If you are still looking for some support and guidance check out our new course: make-them-mainstream.teachable.com/p/how-to-be-a-tutor. We walk through how to get over the fear of tutoring and give you all of the tools you need to approach each new student with confidence (even if you don't know what you are doing).

I am glad that you think I am funny haha
Im trying to get in the military but i have failed the asvab twice now can I find a tutor who can help me prepare for when I take the test again?
Good luck with your next test. I don't have any personal experience taking the ASVAB or tutoring people who are going to take it, so the best advice I have for you is to look for tutors in your area or asking the recruiting office what their recommendations are. You can probably find someone to tutor you in the ASVAB by looking up "ASVAB tutors" on google :)
