How to Work As a Tutor

How to Work As a TutorDo you want to work as a tutor? There are many ways you can choose to do it. Many tutors work as a volunteer in their own communities. This is a way to help others and make some extra money.Tutors have so many different opportunities. They can work for large organizations or small companies. They can choose to work for private and public schools. You can get hired at the local community college. You can even teach at your own child's school.Tutors are usually hired by the student and the school. The student will pay the teacher a portion of the tuition each semester. When a student wants to study further, the teacher can offer a study abroad option. Another benefit is that tutors can cover some of the costs of the study abroad program.Tutors can also work independently. This is especially good if they have never worked as a tutor before. If you have a full time job, finding a way to earn an additional income will allow you to stay home and enjoy your life.If you decide to teach you can work for a tutor in exchange for some teaching or coaching. You can become a coach for a local community college or a private school. Tutors who work independently will need to write a resume to demonstrate that they have the skills necessary to help students.Teaching your own child can be a very rewarding experience. When a child becomes frustrated in class, the student will become more confident in him or herself. This confidence can then lead to learning and the goal of becoming a successful adult.Being a parent can also be very rewarding on a daily basis. Parents can spend a lot of time on household chores. It is important to keep a daily routine with a schedule to spend time with your children. Sometimes this can be challenging, but by giving something back to society you will help others.

GMAT Review Series Sentence Correction - Parallelism

GMAT Review Series Sentence Correction - Parallelism GMAT MBA Admissions Blog In today’s GMAT Review Series video, we’ll take a look at a Sentence Correction (Parallelism/Verb Tense) question from GMAT’s Official Guide 2019 â€" Verbal Diagnostic Exam. Key pointers from this video: Begin by setting up your scratch pad to help you ID the Error CategoryWrite the question number with a line beside it to write any errors you identify in the sentence or the answer choices. List answer choices below to facilitate the process of elimination as you work. Ignore Punctuation as a Standalone IssueThe GMAT does not test punctuation, so never worry about punctuation as a standalone issue. Punctuation can be subjective and all errors on the GMAT have to be absolute. Look to Main Subject Verbs for Errors Look at the subject and verbs for the clearest understanding of any potential errors. Find the subject and any verbs in the underlined portion of the sentence. In this case “dolphins” are the subject and “recognizing” and “to grasp” are the verbs, these are not parallel verb tenses, so we have identified the error category (parallelism/verb tense). Always default to the original sentence as it was written when considering different meanings. As you move through the answer choices, read the sentence literally to see if it makes sense.

Thoughts on Online MBA Programs

Thoughts on Online MBA Programs Improving Academic Performance Every once in a while, students who work with us on GMAT prep will ask for advice about business school options (especially if they don’t do well on the GMAT). From time to time, the topic of online MBA school options will come up. MyGuru’s founders attended the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, which is a top 10 MBA school. However, we still wonder whether the extremely large investment in an MBA will ultimately be worth it. For that reason, we encourage potential online MBA school students to be extremely careful before investing large sums of money in going to an MBA school online. Our recommended options for online MBAs are those that come from well-respected schools that also offer traditional in-person programs. One such example would be Indiana University’s online MBA program. The problem with MBA degrees is that there are just so many programs. Regardless of the program you enter, you’ll have the opportunity to learn a lot about business and improve your management skills. However, from an “employee screening” perspective, most employers know that it really isn’t that difficult to get an MBA, so they look for students with degrees from top notch schools. However, for some students currently working in jobs or careers that place a high value on an MBA, regardless of the school, an online MBA can make a lot of sense. They allow you to continue working, so you don’t have to take a huge hit in the form of two years of lost salary. Plus, the online option obviously works around your schedule. So, as long as you weigh the cost/benefits carefully, and study how much the degree will cost you (both in terms of upfront cost and the opportunity cost of lost wages while you’re in school) vs. what jobs you expect to land after you have the degree, an online MBA could be a good option for you. However, just don’t fool yourself into thinking that having “MBA” next to your name will necessarily earn you a better job or higher salary.
