The Benefits of College Tutoring
There is no reason to feel embarrassed about seeking assistance. It is time to start reaping the benefits of working with a tutor to improve your grades if you are a college student struggling to make it through each semester.
Signs You Need a Tutor
Making new friends and figuring out "who they are" are two primary focuses of college life for students. Even though you're having a good time, it can be discouraging to struggle with your schoolwork simultaneously. Many students will not let a few poor grades affect their overall grade point average, but a good GPA is essential for your future after graduation.
You might benefit from the help of a tutor if you:
Lack of understanding of the basic concepts taught in class.
Consistently receive poor grades on homework assignments.
Have low quiz and test grades (i.e. Cs or below).
Feel stress or anxiety while sitting in class or studying your notes.
Ivy Bound provides Academic Tutoring for College Students throughout the semester for help with homework, papers, projects and exams.
Advantages of Having a Tutor
The coursework you take in high school and college are very different in many respects; however, one of the most significant differences is that there are typically fewer graded activities in college classes. Some professors will only factor in your attendance, midterm, and final exam scores when determining your cumulative grade. This means you will only have two opportunities throughout the semester to demonstrate that you have mastered each topic.
A tutor can help:
When the professor is unavailable. Often, there is no time for one-on-one instruction with individual students in a large lecture.
Improve your overall study skills for all courses.
Recover slipping grades if you’re hoping to attend grad school.
Ivy Bound is here to assist you in relieving some of that stress. In addition to tutoring services throughout the academic year, we also provide semester previews to help you get off to a strong start in each new semester.
