The Benefits of College Tutoring
There is absolutely no reason to feel embarrassed about seeking assistance. It is time to start reaping the benefits of working with a tutor to improve your grades if you are a college student who is having difficulty making it through each semester.
Signs You Need a Tutor
Making new friends and figuring out "who they are" are two of the primary focuses of college life for students. Even though you're having a good time, it can be discouraging to struggle with your schoolwork at the same time. Many students will not let a few poor grades affect their overall grade point average, but having a good GPA is essential for your future after you graduate.
You might benefit from the help of a tutor if you:
Lack understanding of the basic concepts taught in class.
Consistently receive poor grades on homework assignments.
Have low quiz and test grades (i.e. Cs or below).
Feel stress or anxiety while sitting in class or studying your notes.
Ivy Bound provides Academic Tutoring for College Students throughout the semester for help with homework, papers, projects and exams.
Advantages of Having a Tutor
The coursework you take in high school and college are very different in many respects; however, one of the most significant differences is that in college classes, there are typically fewer activities that are graded. There are some professors who will only factor in your attendance, midterm, and final exam scores when determining your cumulative grade. This means that you will only have two opportunities throughout the entire semester to demonstrate that you have mastered each topic.
A tutor can help:
When the professor is unavailable. Oftentimes, in a large lecture, there is no time for one-on-one instruction with individual students.
Improve your overall study skills for all courses.
Recover slipping grades if you’re hoping to attend grad school.
Ivy Bound is here to assist you in relieving some of that stress. In addition to providing tutoring services throughout the academic year, we also provide semester previews to help you get off to a strong start in each new semester.
