Anna Gs experience of volunteering for Tutorfair

Anna G's experience of volunteering for Tutorfair Anna G recently completed her volunteer placement at Pimlico Academy read on to find out what volunteering for Tutorfair  can do for you....... As a Tutorfair volunteer I was offered a great experience at the Pimlico Academy as a Teaching Assistant in French (Year 10) and Spanish (Year 7) over a  5 month period. It gave me the opportunity to get classroom experience and I would recommend this experience for anybody looking for a change of career in Education; it gives the opportunity to assess very efficiently if one belongs to a classroom or not. I was involved very quickly with students and could help them from day one. This experience gave me the opportunity to create a great relationship with the students as I was not their teacher but was there to help them and they totally get it from the beginning. I think most of them are very open from the start and although it took more time for some others to accept my help, I found that after a few weeks they were much easier to approach; this was very good life experience too! The Tutorfair volunteering programme gave    me an insight on how the school is organised and specifically, in my case, the Modern Foreign Language department. I told them I would like to be more active in the department and they were happy to offer different missions on top of Teaching Assistant, such as one-to-one tuition with GCSE students to prepare a specific exam or extra-support to a group of students during lunchtime etc. During the last month I was even teaching French to a group of six students on my own every week.   It helped me to make the most of my experience there. Overall I really think TutorFair offers a “win win situation” and has got a great concept which benefits the students, the schools and the volunteers. The school and students get extra help and the volunteers valuable teaching experience. Best Wishes, Anna x

What Your Irvine SAT Tutor Should Be Able to Do - TutorNerds

What Your Irvine SAT Tutor Should Be Able to Do - TutorNerds What Your Irvine Private SAT Tutor Should Be Able to Do What Your Irvine Private SAT Tutor Should Be Able to Do Standardized tests can play a very important role in your admission to your favorite college.   Because of this, many high school students and their parents choose to hire private tutors for tests like the SAT and ACT to help the student study and achieve the highest score that they can. It is true that private tutoring is a very effective method of preparing for these types of exams.   An experienced tutor can evaluate a student’s strong and weak points, find the strategies and tactics that work best for each student, and keep them dedicated to a study plan that will lead to their best results.   You can’t get the same type of attention and experience by studying on your own or in a classroom setting. However, these results depend on the fact that you have a good and experienced tutor.   There are many “tutors” out there for tests like the SAT who are not qualified to help you the most.   Many college students who recently took the exam themselves will claim that they can tutor for the test.   Parents might hire them when they claim their high test scores as their credentials.   “Hire me and your student can get a score like mine!” Many teachers or students studying to become teachers will also tutor for these exams in their spare time, even when they aren’t experienced in the tests themselves.   “Hire me, I’ve been teaching for fifteen years and have the experience to help,” or “hire me, I teach calculus, so I can tutor for SAT math!” While many of these tutors can be helpful, it is not the same as working with someone who knows the test and the best test preparation strategies inside-out.   Here is what a well-qualified and experienced SAT tutor should be able to do for you: -Be able to consistently answer every test question correctly.   This does not mean that tutors need to be able to get perfect scores on the tests or that they can’t make mistakes, but if you have your questions or practice problems, the tutor should be good enough at the test to get the answers correct and explain them nearly every time. -Be up to date on the format of the test.   If your private Irvine SAT tutor does not know how many sections there are, what the timing is, and how the test is scored, then they likely aren’t experienced enough in the test or their experience is with an older version of the test. -Be able to provide study materials.   A good Irvine SAT tutor should be very familiar with all of the official practice tests and study materials and have them available for you to use.   They likely should also have extra materials in case you need more.   A tutor who expects you to have or buy new books or practice tests on day one (when the best practice tests are free), is a tutor who is not experienced in preparing for the test. -Be able to evaluate you and give you your own, personal strategies.   Many tutors come with generic tips that either they use themselves, or that they’ve heard other people use.   Basic tips like “read the questions before the passage” or “star the ones that look hard and come back to them later” or “skip the word problems and do them last if you have time” are all fairly common and generic tips.   There are many others like them, and they do work for many students.   But not every student.   A good tutor should NOT be giving any of this advice until they’ve evaluated your skills and weaknesses (usually from a practice test).   Then, they can pick which ones will work best for you. There are other factors that make someone a good SAT or another standardized test tutor, but these are some things you should be expecting when you’re paying someone to give private lessons to your student for a very important test.   You can get by and get good results with many other study methods, but if you want the most optimized approach, you will likely need a good private tutor.

English learners in China can get italki and SpeakENG through Alipay

English learners in China can get italki and SpeakENG through Alipay Alipay Learning English is the primary goal of most users on italki, which is natural given that the majority of users are not native speakers of English. Our largest group of users come from China (20% of total users). Weve just started a marketing partnership with Alipay to make it easier for Chinese users to purchase italki credits. Alipay is a payment platform owned by the global e-commerce company Alibaba. Alipay works similarly to Paypal, and is very popular in China. For the month of August, we are offering a 10% bonus to purchases of italki credits over $30 USD through Alipay. Learning English in China Alipay - italki page We hope that by making it easier for Chinese users to pay online, this will lead to more transactions on the italki marketplace. There is certainly an immense demand for learning English in China. Chinese students start learning English at an early age (depends regionally, but average age of 10-13). However, after studying English for five years or more, many students graduate with ???? (mute English). They often have not had any opportunity to use their English, and the vast majority are taught by Chinese teachers with varying levels of proficiency. Given the demand for English, English training centers in China are a huge industry. These centers often are very expensive (10,000 20,000 RMB or ~$1500-$3000 USD). This amount of money also needs to be viewed in an economic context where the average monthly salary is roughly between $200 $600 USD (depends on the city and region). Anecdotally, weve been told that many Chinese find their experiences at these teaching centers to be disappointing. The centers are strong at marketing, but weak at delivering real improvement for students. Students have very limited access to teachers and are stuck listening in large classes. Naturally, we believe that online learning can change this equation radically. italki partners, like Eleutian, can deliver an online product (SpeakENG), direct to students at an incredibly low costs. Students can get Eleutians certified teachers or find independent teachers which they can schedule according to their own time needs. In addition, student tuition doesnt go into supporting building rents in expensive city districts, massive marketing campaigns, or large school administrations.
