Week Six Update

Hello, tutors!

Another week has gone past and believe it or not, we have had 396 appointments with 213 different students totaling 332.91 hours of tutoring just in these first few weeks of school.  Well done, tutors!

I have a few announcements for you this week, as well as the customary list of tutor requests.

1. Just a reminder; if you are a campus-wide tutor please respond to all tutoring requests you receive as soon as possible.  Whether or not you have time in your schedule to meet with a student, let them know within 24 hours of receiving an email or phone call from them.

2. There is still some available space in the Co-Op; come see me if you tutor a high demand course and would like to fill one of these spots.

3. Hopefully, most people were able to enter hours into PeopleSoft for the last pay period.  If not, please remain patient and keep track of your time to log as soon as HR catches up.  Be sure to keep track of your appointments in Tutor Trac and your hours in PeopleSoft.  If the records from both do not correspond at the end of the pay period, I am sorry but I can not approve your time.  I have included as an attachment a handy instruction sheet on how to run a report in TutorTrac so that you can double check what appointments you have entered.  It’s a great way to make sure you didn’t forget to log a session.

4.  Finally, I want to remind everyone that the “For Current Tutors” page on the Subject Area Tutoring page in the Learning Co-Op website is a great resource for troubleshooting.  All of my weely emails are posted in blog format, and you can even use a drop-down menu on the side to search for important entries/instructions for things like logging hours or finding the link to the faculty recommendation form.

5. Which brings me finally to my list of tutor requests.  If you see a course you’ve taken in the past and would like to try your hand at tutoring for it, request a faculty recommendation from your professor by sending them the following link  http://www.uvm.edu/~learnco/sat/facrec/ and send me a quick email.  Thanks!
