We could all benefit from the services of a tutor at some time in our lives, whether we are a beginner or we need specific help towards an examination. The greatest benefit of a tutor is that they offer a one-to-one teaching approach. Teachers in education systems across the world are invariably over-stretched and under-funded. Most group/class teachers do not have the time to identify students' strengths and weakness, let alone address them on a one-to-one basis. A good tutor will do both.
At GlobalAppointments.com we offer all tutors across the world a FREE forum for advertising their specific skill whether it be Ballet, Cantonese, or an academic subject such as mathematics. We aim to provide an easy to use, instant access web site linking thousands of tutors and students across the globe. Please take a look at the website. We hope you will find it useful and that we can help you find exactly what you are looking for. Earning an income as a tutorPlacing an advertisement on this website is completely free.Working, as a tutor is very rewarding: you do not have all of the worries of teaching a large group of students or indeed all the paper work. Tutoring whether it is full/part time, live in/out is mostly a one-to-one job. Your over-heads need not be high and demand is constant. Tutoring agencies take approximately $8.00/£5.00 (or equivalent) /hr from a tutor, in return they advertise their skills and refer students. At GlobalAppointments.com you can have complete control over how you are marketed and can change your advertisement as often as you like. Advertising in shop windows and newspapers is often expensive, inflexible and it often proves hard to reach your target audience. GlobalAppointments.com is the free, easy and effective answer to your job search needs. Finding a tutorThere are many different ways to find a tutor; you could start by asking at school, looking in newspapers and shop windows or by calling a recruitment agency. These methods may work but Global appointments aims to offer you a greater choice.Choosing a tutor at your school can be very effective, but means that your private lessons will have to fit around school time and the teachers' schedule. A private tutor will have more time to prepare lessons and will be independent from the school. The relationship a private tutor has with his/her student is far more personal than that of a teacher with a whole class. This is very important especially when a student needs help with particular educational areas. Looking in papers and shop windows is another popular method but success at find a suitable tutor can be very varied. Recruitment agencies can also be used. You will be given the name of a tutor and often charged a fee. It is very unlikely you will be given much choice, and although tutors are supposed to be vetted this can give a false sense of security, as agencies are not monitored themselves and service is variable. Your tutor will also have to pay a percentage of his hourly rate to the agency. GlobalAppointments.com not only gives you the opportunity to see many advertisements written by the tutors themselves but also give you the opportunity to place an advert requesting the help of a tutor. How can a tutor help in our situation?A good tutor is in high demand. A tutor will give one-to-one advice and support in your chosen subject. Most tutors are subject-specific and so have a real joy for their chosen field, often passing this on to their students.A tutor can teach from beginner to advanced in their subject but many have a preference. Some like teaching young children, others special needs; it is very important to enquire before hiring someone, what their preference is. A large number of students employ the help of a tutor for exams. One to one support in the run up to an exam can mean the difference between a pass and fail, or an 'A' grade as opposed to a 'B' grade. A good tutor will not only ensure that their students know their subject inside and out but will also help with the style and content that the examiner is looking for. Tutors will address such issues as time management and protocol, thus enabling each student to reach his/her full potential. Choosing the right tutorThe relationship between a tutor and student is very important and must be based on trust and respect. A tutor's experience and qualifications are as crucial as their attitude and approachability. At GlobalAppointments.com we feel that students should not only look at adverts placed by tutors but should also place an advert for themselves. This will encourage the right tutor for a student's specific requirements to contact them. Prior to employing a tutor you must interview them and discuss:
We sincerely hope that you will rapidly find the position/tutor you are looking for, and welcome comments and suggestions on how we might improve our service to you. | ||||||
