Tutor Training Beyond Matter: Bringing Academic Coaching into Tutoring Sessions
Presented by Yve Solbrekken
In this webinar, Yve Solbrekken focuses on how to train tutors to provide real, immediate, and useful feedback and tools to students at all stages of their learning. Using many of the same techniques used in academic coaching, tutors can help students become better and more engaged learners. This leads to a more effective tutoring center and a marked increase in student and tutor satisfaction rates.
Yve shares the techniques she developed that have helped thousands of students for the past decade, and how you can pass them on to your tutors. Some key principles that will be discussed include:
-Providing students with evidence-supported practical solutions.
-Creating a tool belt for success in all situations.
-“Studentship skills,” which are the study, learning, and life skills that a seasoned student has acquired, and how tutoring sessions can help them on their academic journey to build these skills.
