NovaStar Prep: What Is Tutoring and Why Is It Important

When people think of a tutor, they think of a person who is like a teacher. Tutors are much more than that. A good tutor cares about the student’s individual learning needs and gets to know what the student likes and dislikes. Along with focusing on the learning needs, a tutor takes care of the parent’s objectives as well as identifying the students’ areas of weaknesses and strengths to build student’s personal excellence.

 

I have been a teacher for more than 10 years now. Over this time, I have seen many differences between students with tutors and students without them. Even in a classroom, students with tutors have quick and better answers than those without tutors, not that teachers aren’t doing their jobs, but dedicating their 100% to one student in a classroom is not possible and not fair to the other children of the class too. Students regularly working with tutors seem to develop better understanding higher self-esteem, and their ability to solve a problem is faster compared to those without a tutor. Increase in concentration and focus towards producing the desired outcome is the major result of one-on-one student tutor relationship. These students know that they have a personal coach, on whom they can lean on to cultivate their personal excellence.

 

Tutors are not just educators; they are companions in the learning journey. I taught a class during the day when I was a teacher and I also tutored a few children one-on-one. And frankly the relationships that I have developed with these students as one-on-one tutoring will stay with me forever, hopefully with them too. They actually taught me how to laugh and enjoy teaching.

 

Tutoring is a real treasure and a real gift from the parents for many reasons. A good tutor is not only an educator, but a personal coach who listens to the students, understands them, their needs and then finally works out a progressive plan to achieve certain goals with education as well as life.

 

I joined NovaStar Prep team and I can say NovaStar Prep has changed my life as well as the life of kids that I have been tutoring. NovaStar made me realize the key factors of tutoring and the happiness and joy in the profession. If you have a kid who’s looking for a tutor, NovaStar is the best place to find a dedicated, understanding and experienced tutor like me.
