Board 8 > Does anyone have experience teaching?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I got a job at my college as a tutor for a class of freshmen with substandard English abilities. It's mostly looking over their work, correcting it, and explaining what they need to do in the future, as well as the basics of how to write an essay and such. Does anyone know anything I should know about this kind of work? Any tips or anything?

This should just be Attn: Commodore and Anri.

I could go on for days with tips, what are you wanting to know specifically?

Be confident. Nobody's going to respect you if you don't seem to know what you're talking about.

I did tutoring online before for flvs.

I learned people are very very different.

Be patient with the dumb ones and chase down homework like a *****.

I don't know. I've never done anything like this before, I was surprised when one of my professors recommended me to be a class tutor like this. I've of course worked in groups and stuff, but never led a class of this size (I expect it to be 15~ freshmen). I'm working with one other tutor, whom I haven't met yet.
