Choosing the Right Tutor

Choosing the right tutor isn’t just about finding someone who is qualified.  It’s about finding someone you want to work with on a regular basis.  A good candidate should possess all of the following qualities.  Take them into consideration as you narrow your search for the perfect tutor:

Expertise/Experience.  It is important to choose a tutor who not only has expertise in a particular subject area but also has experience as a teacher or private tutor.  Ask potential candidates to give you a list of references.  Speaking with other students about their experience can help you determine if a tutor is qualified.

Availability.  Be sure to choose a tutor who has time to work with you. Even the most experienced and qualified tutor can’t help you if they’re too busy with other students.  And if you frequently have questions while doing your homework, make sure you select a tutor who is easy to reach.  Before you make a final decision, ask potential candidates how and when they are available.

Motivation.  A good private tutor motivates students to achieve their goals by providing the encouragement they need to stay focused on improving their academic performance.  Choose someone who you think will inspire you to learn.
