Resume:

- - Clerical-As a tutor I stressed the

importance of being organized as

the assignment was worked on for

clarity and perfection.

English Language - Where

vocabulary was the issue I gave

hints on how they might

highlight the words they were

unsure of and google the word for

meaning.

Writing-The essay structure

consisted of at least five

paragraphs, the introduction,

body paragraphs(3) and then the

conclusion paragraph. A draft

essay is needed, then editing the

essay and then finishing.

Active Listening- When tutoring,

time is spent on conversation

between the tutor and the student

to check for understanding.

Reading Comprehension- Reading

out loud is always helpful to

know where punctuation is

concerned. Also, it will help to

clarify context meaning.

Forty-five years of experience in teaching and helping students find their goals are closer than ever believed possible. After my retirement, I found that I needed to return to the educational setting, so the job as a tutor became available and for a year and six months I began another phase of teaching, the tutor and what it involved, but more important, why it is so important.? There are many answers to this question. Mainly, it gives the student all of the answers they did not receive while in high school . I have lots of patience, understanding and willingness to work with the students until we reach their goals. Being a college tutor is very important, many of these students are so close to meeting their goals, we must keep them motivated. Skills
