Academic Tutors Vs. Standard Tutors
Academic tutoring is a combination of academic coaching and traditional tutoring. But how do the two types of academic support work together? To answer the question, we need to understand each one separately. Often when students struggle with their school work or want to learn more, they ask for a tutor. Traditional tutors help students with a specific subject or topic because the student has performed poorly and needs help with homework. At the same time, tutors are often individuals specialized in specific academic study areas and build upon concrete skills with the students. However, traditional tutors frequently do not focus on the root causes of a student’s struggles.
On the other hand, academic coaching aims to teach students how to become effective learners. Often a coach analyzes a student’s needs to identify the areas to improve that will help boost a student’s school performance. Simply put, it supports students in raising their overall learning process. So, by blending the two education support positions, we have an academic tutor. Our academic tutors put it all together to produce increased results in the education of their students. Therefore, students receive substantial subject help and learn how to approach school and valuable tools to help them tackle challenges in the future.
