Today the job market is tough and tomorrow it will be even more difficult. Employers are demanding an educated work force and most will, if not already, require a minimum of a Bachelors degree. If you have CEO aspirations, you better go for a masters degree. It is now more important than ever that you get serious and graduate with a high grade point average and attain a college degree. Employers don't want to hear excuses and they are correct. You have a plethora of resources available to you. Government grants, financial aid, low interest student loan programs and tutors for all academic levels and school subjects. Make the most of them and show employers you are a go getter.
Your career, future, and current or future family depend on the effort you put forth and decisions you make in your teens and college years. If you have put forth the effort to graduate with good grades and are close but still struggling in a subject, a tutor that specializes in the subject that challenges you may be all you need. It's an investment in your future.
As mentioned, tutors are available for just about every subject taught on all levels of education. Tutors for basic math, algebra, calculus and trig. Language tutors for English, Spanish, Chinese, Russian and other languages. Chemistry and medical tutors, computer sciences, law, finance and so on.
WHY HIRE A TUTOR?
Whatever the subject, be it math, science, a language or medical class, law, finance or another subject, since you are struggling in a subject, you need dedicated one on one teaching in a different atmosphere from someone that understands you, your needs and the subject at hand. You may also need to hear the same material from a different teacher. Let's face it, some teachers or professors just don't deliver or hold your interest. We are more apt to learn a subject if a teacher, or tutor, can hold our interest and make that subject more interesting to us.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A TUTOR
Hire an experienced tutor. We aren't talking age here. Some students are as knowledgeable as their teachers. Do your homework and check credentials. Are they certified or licensed? If they are a student, do they have references from a teacher or past clients?
Is the tutor available to work around your schedule? Are they available days, evenings, weekends? Do they have reliable transportation and will he or she show up on time? Call their references and verify that they can stick to a schedule. A tutor that comes with verified references is highly recommended.
