The success of our students, as well as the ability to make the search easy for families, is a direct result of the quality of our tutors. We have high standards and we are selective when it comes to adding new tutors to our community to ensure success for our clients.
For a tutor to be impactful, they need to be more than just academically smart. A highly skilled tutor will energize and inspire their students, actively build relationships, and adapt to learning styles. To best assess our prospective tutors, we created a multi-tiered application process. Through first an online and then an in-person interview (if applicable), we are able to understand how the tutor would function in a variety of settings.
On our application, we ask prospective tutors for some history of their educational background, teaching experience, and subject expertise. We then review the applications to identify candidates who not only meet our high academic standards but who also embody Anne Arundel Tutoring's flexible, personalized approach to tutoring.
We interview each and every one of our tutors. We believe it’s important for us to get to know every potential tutor. We use these interviews to gauge the tutor’s teaching style, values, personality, and passions. If the tutor meets or surpasses our standards, and if we believe that they would be a vibrant addition to our tutor community will we invite them to be a part of our team! The information we learn about our tutors during interviews will later be used to match the tutors with students.
