Online tutoring with its advantages has challenges as well. What are they? How to handle them?
- Tutoring accommodation for international students-a tutor online is to be ready for facing any set of students with any type of questions in his career
- All time emergencies- no stipulated times but any odd hour to face the situation. So, be ready with all the formulae, charts or list of theories in Math, Science and Statistics to draw a diagram, solve an equation or graph a solution
- 100% perfection of online tools-sharing of online calculators may cause embarrassment for the tutors in the last minute. Beware of the functions of a Probability Calculator or Polynomials Calculator or Trigonometric Calculator before hand to answer the problems in a few minutes’ time
- Online tutoring misses face to face communication- not a great issue with multi tool virtual environment. But make sure your response to the student and his queries are communicated clearly to reach proper end results. Last minute urgencies always demand personal attention and clarification of the doubts. Relax your student’s mind with your personal touch and give him the assurance of what he wants
- Unexpected questions from unexpected corners- A new type of query from a student (which is beyond his grade level, yet posed). Be prepared with a list of such queries prepared from your experience and get ready to answer
- Tackling the parent more than the kid-At times, parents cause inconveniences with their interrupting questions and nagging attitude. Avert their interference with polite answers and apparent attention to the child’s queries
- Facing the queries of mentally disabled students-this happens at times, though there is separate room for their learning atmosphere. Show patience and it would be good if you are in know of the basic methods of teaching them.
Aside from all these, a tutor online is considered as a special being who makes things great for learners. Stand up to their expectation.
