The one-on-one teaching style tutors offer can help fill learning gaps in any course you might be struggling in. This article will explain how to find a tutor, how to become one, and where to find further resources for deepening your understanding of a subject.
Where do I find a tutor?
- Though paid tutors and tutoring centers exist, start with your school library.
- Many libraries offer peer-to-peer tutoring, matching you with another student who can help you through a lesson or subject.
- Even if your school doesn’t offer this service, you’ll likely be sent in the right direction.
- Also, it’s very helpful to talk to your teacher if you’re struggling in their class and want a tutor. Sometimes, they’ll even pull students from the class to tutor you.
How do I become a tutor?
- If your school offers a peer tutoring program, it can be a great way to give back to your school and meet other students.
- Communication is important here. Talk to whomever runs peer tutoring at your school, whether it be the school librarian, a teacher, or a counselor.
Online Resources
- Finally, if you can’t find a tutor but are still struggling in a class, Khan Academy’s services are an excellent alternative.
- They offer in-depth, high-quality videos that cover a wide variety of topics. You can find their website here: https://www.khanacademy.org/
