The role of a Tutor

A good tutor would be able to listen to the tutee in order to figure out what specific needs they have and how they best learn. Tutors should be personable and easy to talk to so someone feels comfortable coming to them and asking for help. They should not pretend to know answers they do not know and be flexible enough to help someone learn how to find answers. Tutors need to have patience and be willing to go over material as many times as a tutee needs them to. They should be able to motivate, keep material interesting, and always encourage the tutee. On the other hand, the tutee must be willing to listen and learn as well, or the tutor’s efforts will be lost. They must keep an open mind to new methods suggested by the tutor and never give up hope.
