Each of us experienced our school years differently.

YES! Not that you should be buddies with your student - that's a bad idea. You'll probably want to revaluate your relationship student.

Let's start with a tutoring scenario seen through the eyes of a distressed, unhappy high school student: You are a self-conscious teenager, who is struggling in a subject like statistics. You have just spent 6 hours in school and are finally at home. But instead of returning home to your computer games and relaxed, carefree environment, your mom has arranged for you to spend another hour studying the very subject statistics that is making you miserable; just you and a tutor who not only loves the subject, but is so good at it that they tutor it for a living! Now that we have established this poor student's frame of mind, let's pinpoint some of our own behaviours that can lead to the emotional success - or failure - of your tutoring sessions. • Always we come across as patient and non-judgmental. Students' progress and ability to learn statistics are greatly affected by their level of confidence. A single 'No!', 'We just went over that', or 'We still don't get it?' can erase an hour's worth of smooth sailing. We always watch our tone of voice and our reactions: If we're explaining the same concept for the 5th time, we find a different way to explain it, and keep our voice and pace as calm and pleasant as it was the first time. Students are often told that "there is no such thing as a stupid question," but do they truly believe it? Probably not. In fact, many tell their students that they LOVE stupid questions; after all, what do we think is the primary reason struggling students don't ask questions in class? We, as a private statistics tutor Montreal, may be the only person the student can turn to.
• We are always aware of our student's mood throughout the session. The level of participation reveal a lot about how our student is feeling. If they show signs of increasing frustration or boredom with the current topic, then we 'rejuvenate' them by interjecting a few questions they can answer correctly, also we take a short break, or switch topics (after we have made some progress), then come back to the current topic or question later. Tutoring isn't supposed to be fun, but it will lead nowhere fast if our student begins to regard our tutoring sessions as torture sessions. • We create a comfortable, sympathetic rapport with our teenage student. The most productive relationships between tutors and students are those in which the student sees you as a friendly supervisor. NOT a friend, and NOT an authoritarian figure, but somewhere in between. A coach, so to speak. We don't try too hard, just be our self, be genuine, and show that we care about our students and truly want them to succeed!
