What to Ask Potential Tutors.

Finding a potential tutor for yourself or your child can be arduous. You want to make sure there’s a good fit between need and knowledge as well as between educational and teaching modalities. In order to streamline the process, we’ve compiled several suggestions that will help you choose wisely and get your first meeting off and running.

1. Be specific: As tutors, specificity helps us hone in on and ask direct questions regarding you and your child’s needs. Letting us know specific content or skills your child might be struggling with and/or certain skills you’d like to enhance will help us to build an initial lesson that allows us to assess where you or your child is at and proceed accordingly with our second lesson. Going in “sight-blind” simply delays the process and can make it harder to diagnose what the client actually needs.

2. Create a link between school and tutor: As tutors, we love seeing students’ work as a way to identify specific content as well as where they need support. Going along with the theme of specificity, knowing exactly what is being covered in class helps to strengthen performance for the tutor and student alike. Worksheets, test and/or teachers’ emails are great ways to create this connection.

3. Keep your first meeting: Yes, emergencies arise, however, first impressions are important. Keeping your initial meeting allows the tutor to know you’re serious about maintaining your contract and builds trust. Knowing that a client is consistently prepared often leads to a very deep and significant investment on our end.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
