New tutors must read, analyze, and write a summary of ten articles from the NCRLA Tutor Handbook during the tutor’s first semester of employment. “Defining Tutor Responsibilities”, “How to Begin and End a Tutoring Session”, “Role Modeling” , and “Communication Skills” are examples of the articles a tutor must summarize.
-
Each tutor must create or work on some type of project each semester. The projects must relate to learning/tutoring in some fashion, and may include such activities as visiting classrooms to promote the Learning Center services, creating learning pamphlets/handouts, bulletin board displays etc.
