These sessions are to help students with their homework. Usually students can get most homework completed in an hour session if they have their materials, know exactly what is expected of them, and have notes on how their teacher prefers the tasks to be completed. Most teachers will be flexible with deadlines when they know a student is working with a tutor but they have to prove they are working and turning in their work according to the agreements which will be the student’s responsibility. These sessions can only be helpful if the student has their materials, sessions begin on time, and the time is used wisely-especially in the upper levels as tasks tend to take more time to complete because of increased rigor and they usually lack understanding of the concepts. These sessions do not include instruction on how to master the skill, only help completing the specific tasks they are assigned. Please note, I do not reschedule due to forgotten materials, extracurriculars, or not having homework on our scheduled day. This is why communicating with the teacher is helpful and allows us to always have additional time and work on tasks on a less stressful schedule. If the student has a test and the study guide is the “homework”, we will do our best to complete as much as possible but it’s most helpful if the student works on it prior and we review the errors or struggle spots together to improve understanding. Providing me a copy in advance is helpful so I can review it and find the areas we need to target prior to the session so we can make the most of our time together.
*A minimum of one, 50 minute weekly session is required for homework help. This allows for consistency in scheduling and allows me a chance to get familiar with the work the student is completing and needs help with.
