Tips for maximizing the impact of tutoring

  • Communicating with your Tutor
    • Be respectful and actively engage in the session. Remember that the tutor’s job is to assist you by answering questions and explaining concepts that you bring to the session!
    • Clearly explain the areas you need help with or the questions you have.
    • Ask for clarification if you don’t understand something the tutor explains.
    • Participate in discussions and ask questions to enhance your understanding.
  • Using the Interactive Whiteboard in virtual sessions
    • The tutor may use an interactive whiteboard to explain concepts visually.
    • Follow the tutor’s instructions on using the whiteboard tools (drawing, highlighting, typing, etc.).
    • Feel free to interact with the whiteboard by adding your own notes or annotations.
  • Reviewing Concepts
    • If the tutor covers a lot of material during the session, ask for a quick summary or recap to ensure you grasp the key concepts.
    • Take notes during the session for future reference and review.
  • Wrapping up the Session
    • Toward the end of the session, summarize what you’ve learned and ensure you understand the main points.
    • Ask the tutor for additional practice exercises or resources to reinforce your understanding.
    • Provide feedback on the session if prompted.
  • Post-Session Review:
    • After the session, review your notes and any additional resources provided.
    • Attempt the practice exercises or problems discussed during the session.
    • If you have further questions, consider scheduling another tutoring session.

Remember, LSSU in-person and online tutors are here to support your learning journey. Take advantage of the opportunity to ask questions, seek clarification, and gain a deeper understanding of your subjects.
