Tutoring In Schools One-to-One Tuition

Tutoring In Schools One-to-One Tuition Even experienced tutors can struggle when starting to deliver sessions in schools. Tutoring in-school means being particularly mindful of how your sessions fit into a student’s school life and tailoring your approach accordingly. This sounds easy enough in theory, but what does it mean in practice?   This week, we’re looking at one-to-one tutoring. Across the Foundation team, we’ve seen more than our fair share of this in dozens of schools across the country, which means we’ve seen how things most often go wrong - and how the best tutors get it right. We’ve compiled a list of the five things tutors should definitely be doing when they work one-to-one in schools. Staying positive about maths lessons After a few weeks with a new student, it’s common to hear that they love attending the sessions. ‘You explain things so well,’ they’ll say, ‘everything seems so easy when you go through it.’ You swell with pride and give a gracious acceptance speech â€" humbly acknowledging an adoring crowd as you accept your Tutor of the Decade award. Then, inevitably…   ‘You’re so much better than Mr Clarke. He goes through everything too fast and can’t even explain it well. I don’t understand him. He’s a rubbish teacher â€" I much prefer coming here. Can I come here for every lesson?’ And you’re back in the room with a thud, standing at a very important crossroads.   Tutors should be prepared for this possibility â€" mindful not to let the student develop an unhealthy dependence on sessions and always ready with the right words should they hear any negativity towards teaching staff. The purpose of your sessions is as much to improve your student’s attitude towards their regular lessons as it is to improve their subject knowledge in its own right.   Connecting sessions to classwork   It’s all too easy for progress made in tutoring sessions to stay in tutoring sessions. Consistently, evidence shows that tutoring interventions are more effective when they’re meaningfully connected to students’ regular lessons â€" allowing them to feel the benefit of the additional work when they’re back in the classroom. This is particularly important to remember for tutors in schools, where students can feel particularly disorientated by contrasting approaches to a subject. They might be told in their lesson to use one approach for a certain problem, only to have that contradicted in their tutoring session. What to do? Who to trust? Maybe their tutor wants to cover a different topic altogether â€" something they’ve not come across yet that won’t be covered in lessons for a few weeks. Will they feel that progress back in the classroom? Tutors working in schools should be building a relationship with the teaching staff of the relevant department. It’s important to know what was covered in your student’s last lesson and what will be covered in their next. If it’s a tricky topic, what method is the teacher using? If you’re not familiar with it, take some time to get used to it before the session. Ensuring your approach connects meaningfully with classwork will drastically improve the impact of the sessions in both the short and the long term. Personalising topics The great power of one-to-one tuition is the personalisation of content. When working with just one student at a time, every topic can be approached with that student’s experience and personal difficulties in mind. This is the mechanism that makes one-to-one sessions so impactful, with students able to make meaningful progress much quicker than they might be used to. When working in schools, the particular topics, resources or methods to be covered might come from teaching staff. Whilst this is a really important aspect of in-school tuition, it shouldn’t cause tutors to forget to personalise teaching for each student. Take the time to get to know your tutees â€" what are their hobbies? What subjects do they like best? Which of the fundamentals of this subject have they never felt comfortable with? Start every session with a warm-up to see how they’re feeling today and ground every task in something that connects to your student. Balancing ‘friendly’ with ‘focus’ One of the things we get asked about the most during training sessions is how to tread the fine line between a fun atmosphere and a focused lesson. For inexperienced tutors, it’s all too easy to take a ‘matey’ approach in early sessions that leads to behavioural issues after a few sessions. Or, by contrast, to overthink the thing and come off too stern in the first hour and put their student off. Here’s what we recommend. Remember that you have an obligation to be warm, kind, friendly and supportive. Don’t try to take a stern or disciplinary approach â€" it’s just not what you’re there to do. However, your student knows the rules and so should you. If you encourage rule-breaking in your sessions (think lateness, bad language, etc.) it’s no longer clear where the line is, which can lead to small losses of control down the line.   Most importantly, keep your promises. If you say something’s going to happen it has to happen. Good, bad or indifferent, if you’ve made a promise you have to keep it. As long as you tread that line, your students will know that (although you’re friendly) you’re to be taken seriously â€" and at the end of the day what you say goes! Keeping records and feeding back It’s really important to discuss student progress with teaching staff. They’ll want to know how students are getting on in sessions and you should always be prepared to have that conversation. By talking to teachers, you might be able to pick up some information about what your students have been struggling with in lessons or whether they’re showing signs of improvement in class. All of this means taking detailed notes of what happens in sessions. Not only so you have a record of what topics you’ve covered (trust me, you’ll forget!) but so that you can come back to little mistakes in later sessions to reinforce learning. Your notes will be an invaluable basis for planning sessions, sharing progress with teachers and giving meaningful, responsive feedback to students. Word to the wise: never take your session notes off-site â€" that’s not the kind of thing you want to leave on the bus!

A Simple Guide to Applying for Scholarships

A Simple Guide to Applying for Scholarships Image via Pexels What’s the Difference Between Scholarships and Grants?   For any student looking for financial assistance in college, scholarships and grants are often lumped together as “free money that you don’t have to pay back.” While this is true for both, it is important to know the difference between the two. Grants are a type of financial aid typically disbursed by the government, such as the Pell Grant (for low-income undergraduate students), states Shayla of Unigo. To determine your eligibility for these grants, be sure fill out the FAFSA or Free Application for Federal Student Aid. Scholarships, on the other hand, are another form of financial aid usually given out by individuals, non-profit organizations, religious groups, ethnic/historical organizations, and corporations. Breaking Down the Misconceptions Unfortunately, there is a great deal of misinformation when it comes to scholarships, which can not only turn students away from applying, but it can also make funding their education even harder in the long run. Fear not, you are not alone in your thoughts! Last October, I wrote an article on the myths of scholarships, ranging from who gets scholarships to what it takes to get a scholarship. While talking about applying for scholarships, I feel it is important to include some of the (almost) universal misconceptions many hold about scholarships to help you gain that confidence back and demonstrate that anyone can get a scholarship. Scholarships are only awarded to those with the best grades: It is unfortunate that while in high school and college we are convinced that only the best students get scholarships, and if you have mediocre grades, you’re out of luck. While this is perhaps the greatest and most circulated scholarship myth out there, it is completely untrue! There are many scholarships that do not even consider your grades. These do consider, however, GPA which most of the time is a minimum of a 2.5 instead of a 4.0, leaving more room for students to apply and obtain scholarships, according to Scholarships.com. Additionally, Mark Kantrowitz of FastWeb.com affirms this by stating, “Less than 10% of private scholarships are based on academic performance.” So if you don’t have straight As and a 4.0 don’t worry, there are scholarships out there for you! Scholarships have to be well written, by the best writers: Yep, again not true! While of course, it does not hurt to write well on your scholarship essays, you do not have to be some sort of Hemmingway to get a scholarship. Most scholarships are concerned with the content of your essay rather than how well it is written (i.e. grammar mistakes, spelling mistakes, etc.) Scholarships.com notes that, “Whether you follow the instructions and address the essay question is often more crucial to your success than how eloquently you write.” Scholarships are really only for high school students: Though this seems silly, believe it or not, this is a popular myth that many students believe! Due to the fact that scholarships are heavily encouraged during high school and not so much in college, many students believe that once they are in college, they are left with either taking out loans, working, or receiving help from their parents to fund their education. Sites like Unigo.com and CollegeScholarships.org offer a bunch of scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students. To my friends in college, there is still plenty out there for you! Most scholarships are for minority students: While there are many scholarships out there exclusively for students of a specific race or ethnicity, that does not mean that they all are nor does it mean that you do not have a chance at being rewarded a scholarship for this reason. In fact, according to Kantrowitz, white students win more than their fair share of scholarships, with white students having a 14.4% chance of winning scholarships in comparison to 11.2% of minority students. Why is this? Kantrowitz points to many reasons, such as geography and varied interests and values. Applying for scholarships is too competitive: This myth is rooted in some truth only in that if you are applying for a scholarship that does not have extensive criteria (i.e. you fill out contact information and your school), there is the chance that you are applying with hundreds of thousands of other students. Scholarships like these are definitely competitive because of the amount of time and the content it requires to fill out the form. However, not all scholarships are this competitive, instead, consider more value/interest/location-specific scholarship applications when searching. According to Jessica Zdunek of U.S. News, considering local scholarships may be your best bet when applying. She one reason being, “Your Zip code, city or county could mean youre eligible for awards most people cant apply for. And the more specific these programs get â€"  for example, requiring a certain GPA, extracurricular involvement, or volunteer hours  â€"  the better your chances of winning, g iven you meet the criteria listed.” Infographic by Alicia Geigel Applying for Scholarships How to Prepare: Before beginning your search into the complex world of scholarships, there are a few things to do to prepare yourself. Know What Scholarship Committees Look For: Usually, scholarship committees don’t zero in on one specific trait that a student has, rather they typically look for students who are well rounded, with a mix of good grades, involvement in extracurricular activities, engagement in service opportunities, etc.     Take Advantage of Volunteer Opportunities: This tip coincidentally ties into the previous one in that it involves one of the traits scholarship committees look for, which is engagement in volunteer/service opportunities! Volunteering is a big bonus on any kind of scholarship application you may send in, so if you see an opportunity perhaps at a local homeless shelter, hospital, or charitable event, go for it! Seek Guidance from Counselors: I don’t think I’m wrong when I say that a large portion of us don’t like to seek the help of others, whether it be out of pride or shyness, but when it comes to applying for scholarships, you should take advantage of teachers, counselors and parents to help you with any troublesome part of the application. Collect Relevant Information: Don’t make yourself overwhelmed during every scholarship application by having to search around for important dates or re-type every academic achievement you’ve had. Instead, prior to applying for the scholarships, Michael Gardon of the Simple Dollar suggests  gathering together all information you think you’ll need for an application, such as grades, activities, accomplishments, etc. Navigating Your Search:  This is a stressful and perhaps most overwhelming part of applying for scholarships, but these few tips can help you find the best scholarships for you, where to find them, and how to go about looking. Start Early: Scholarship applications aren’t usually something that you can pop out in a few minutes, they take a bit of time to thoroughly fill out each section carefully. Because of this, it is important to apply for scholarships as early as you can to allow yourself enough time to write a successful application and get it sent out before its deadline. Focus on Quantity: This step is simple, but overlooked! Apply for as many scholarships as you can and focus on quantity over quality. There’s no limit on the number of scholarships you can apply for- $100 here and $300 there can go a long way! Search Frequently: Don’t give up searching for scholarships right away if you can’t find anything. Sources are constantly updating their sites to show the most recent scholarship openings with their deadlines, so keep searching frequently and the perfect one will come your way, I promise! Use the Free Sources: Free sources include but are not limited to high school and college counselors, online scholarship sites, federal aid and state grant agencies, etc. Take advantage of these sources, they won’t cost you a dime! Where to Look University Scholarships: Look no further than your favorite, preferred universities for scholarships that could be perfect for you! According to Cathie Ericson of Forbes, “Schools award two main types of  financial aid: need-based (dependent on your family household income) and merit-based (offered because of your achievements, whether academic, athletic or artistic, to name a few).” Distinguish what kind of aid you are seeking and research the types of awards your prospective school gives out according to the type of aid you need. Local Scholarships: Local scholarships are great ways to find financial aid as well. Some groups that support students and award scholarships include high school groups, civic groups, community foundations, local businesses, and state programs. National Scholarships: National scholarships are the ones you are probably most familiar with, meaning ones that are open to students across the country. Look for national scholarships on websites like Scholarships.com, Unigo.com, CollegeBoard.com, and CollegeNet.com How to Secure a Scholarship Work on Your Essay: I stated earlier that you don’t have to be a Hemmingway to get a decent scholarship, which is true. However, that does not mean that you shouldn’t try and make a polished, interesting essay to capture the eyes of those who are awarding scholarships. Seek the advice of a counselor, peers, parents, or teachers to help you refine ideas, improve on your writing style, and check for spelling and grammatical errors. Don’t Let Your Grades Slip: A lot of students like to let senioritis take over glide their senior year because they think that their grades won’t matter in terms of applying for scholarships or getting into college. That’s totally false! While your grades from your first three years of high school are looked at heavily, your senior grades aren’t ignored. So keep on pushing through school and do the best you can, it won’t go unnoticed! Image via Pexels Are you convinced you can win a scholarship, yet? Regardless of when you apply or how many scholarships you apply for, it is never too late to begin to apply and reap the rewards that you deserve. So take some time out of your day to evaluate what your interests are, verify whether you are a minority, discover what your local town offers, etc., to fuel your search for scholarships! And remember, there is some kind of scholarship out there for you!

Cute Geometry Area of a Circle

Cute Geometry Area of a Circle Hi, today is Monday, again. As promised here  is my second article about cute geometric shapes. Last week we had fun with the bunny who wanted to know the area of a trapezoid. This week our cute bunnies continue helping you with geometry. The shape what we are going to discuss is a circle. As for me the most important geometry shape. You can ask why. But just imagine a car with 4 square wheels. A circle may be defined as a set of all points in a plane that are at a given distance from the center. The distance from the center to the edge of the circle is called the radius. The diameter of the circle is a line that starts at one side and ends on the other side of the circle. Look at the cute picture below. What is the area (S) of that circle? You can compute the area of circles by using  the following  formula: Where: S â€" is the area of the circle; r â€" is the radius of the circle; ? â€" is the irrational number 3.141 592 653. In case you want to know more about our bunny-shaped circles find yourself a good geometry tutor on TutorZ. Cute Geometry Area of a Circle Hi, today is Monday, again.
