Mistakes To Avoid As A Home Tutor

Introduction Teaching students at home is a great source of extra income or even a full time profession. If you are currently teaching as a home tutor, it’s very likely that you have a good grasp over the subject.

However, no matter how skilled you are there are some common mistakes anyone can make. So look into the following points, and make sure you have them covered to go from good to great!

1-NOT HAVING FULL KNOWLEDGE OF THE SUBJECT: Some people feel that they are great in one topic and should become teachers. But any subject is made up of a variety of topics, and a teacher needs to be thorough with their understanding, and knowledge of all topics. Be aware of your skill set and position yourself accordingly.

2-NOT STAYING UPDATED: The world we live in is evolving, and so is the knowledge out there, and its application. It is very important as a teacher to stay updated with any new addition, or changes to the subject you are teaching in terms of information, approach, usability, application, etc.

3-NOT ADVERTISING: It is important for you to get on an online platform, or advertise your expertise if you want to attract potential students. Without bringing people’s awareness to your skill set, you will be unable to exploit your capabilities to maximum.
