How to Become a Top Tutor

March10_2048x2048Teaching, as most of us have had occasion to discover, is one of the most enjoyable ways you can interact with others. And tutoring, which allows you to build a rapport 1-1 with someone who can benefit from your knowledge or expertise, may be the most satisfying form of teaching. When done right, tutoring is not just financially rewarding, but also fun. Are you tutoring?
 

How to Become a Top Tutor
Rochester Brainery
Tuesday, March 10th, 7:00pm-8:30pm

Whether you’re already in the game or just waiting on the sidelines to be called up, the time has come to take tutoring to the next level. Become a truly elite tutor by understanding the best practices–and secrets–truly elite professionals have mastered.

In my long career in for-profit education, I’ve learned from and trained so many gifted teachers. I’ve also learned what a tutor needs to do to make a session meaningful for a student and, perhaps just as important, be invited back for the next session. While training top tutors is something I do every day at Chariot Learning, I’m thrilled to be sharing my experience with the general public in collaboration with the eclectic, electric Rochester Brainery. This class should be a lot of fun, so if you’re interested in the traits, techniques, and tips of the trade that separates amateur educators from the pros, join me on March 10!
