About Darshini

I have experience working with preschool and kindergarten-age students. I have also tutored middle school students in reading, as well as college and high school students. Through these tutoring and counseling positions, I have learned how to best teach each age group. For example, I created songs to teach my three-year-old campers the camp rules, but I gave my college student daily quizzes to help her prepare for exams.

I am passionate about helping students improve in all academic subjects. I still remember my excitement when my calculus student received her first “A” on a quiz! I am confident that my passion and experience are the qualities you are looking for.

About the lesson

Identify areas for improvement

1. Identify areas for improvement
The first step to improve your tutoring skills is to identify which skills you need to work on. For example, if you struggle with explaining the reason why your student should use one algebraic formula over another, you might identify communication as an area for improvement. Or, if you notice yourself getting frustrated when a student does not understand a concept, maybe patience and empathy are a few skill areas where you could improve.

2. Ask your students to evaluate your performance
The second step to improve your tutoring skills is to ask your students about your performance directly. To get the most accurate results, consider sending out an anonymous email survey or give them a hard copy to fill out after a tutoring session. Ask them to rate aspects of your tutoring style, such as your level of patience, ability to offer explanations or your level of positivity.

For example, you look at the results of an email survey that 10 students filled out. Each of them ranked your organization skills as average or below average, noting that you either forget assignments or spend valuable time trying to find papers. Using these results, you can target organization as a skill area where you need to improve.

3. Hold a mock tutor session with a friend
The third step is to enlist the help of a friend who you know will give you honest feedback. Hold a mock interview session with them about a topic in which you are advanced. After the meeting, ask them to determine three strengths and four weaknesses they noticed.

For example, your friend lists your strengths as active listening, organization and offering insightful explanations. They suggest that you could improve in areas such as patience, time management, positivity and leadership.

4. Continue learning
The fourth step to improve your tutoring skills is to challenge yourself to keep learning. Learn about new tutoring methods, how to better teach different learning styles and most importantly, stay up-to-date on new developments in your subject areas.
