Subject Area Tutoring Programs Study Smarter!

Hello, SI Leaders–

It is getting close to the end of the semester now, and, as per usual,  I have a few announcements for you.

#1: The last day of tutoring is May 4, the last day of classes.  If you hold Thursday sessions, you will NOT have a session May 5.  If you would like to hold an exam review session during the last week of classes, please let me know what day and time you would like no later than Friday, April 29.  It takes a little longer than usual to reserve rooms for exam week, so I’ll need to have all requests by the 29th to ensure I can get you a room.

#2: As I let you know last week, it is nearly time to conduct your SI evaluations.  I am waiting for a scantron order to be delivered (probably some time next week) and as soon as I get them I will out together your evaluation folders.  For now, focus on getting in touch with your professor and let them know that you will need to take five minutes of class time to distribute the evaluations.  If you lead SI for more than one section of a class, make sure you can make it to all classes to hand out evals (not just the section you attend).  If you need help administering the evaluations, let me know and I will help you out.

#3: If you have not yet done so, please schedule a time to meet with me for our final check-in.  I’ll clarify any questions you have about the evaluation process at this time, too,.

#4: Finally, as promised, I have included the link to the Supplemental Instruction Survey here.  As I re-configure training for next semester, your feedback is invaluable to me.  It is an anonymous survey, and you will be entered in a raffle for an iTunes gift card, so please take a few minutes to fill it out!  As I am hoping to include your advice for future leaders in my May 1 training, if you can submit your response by April 29 I would be greatly appreciative.  You will have until May 4 to complete the survey, however.

Hello, Most Wonderful Tutors–

There are just under two weeks left in this semester.  Wow!  Of course, this means I have a barrage of announcements for you.  Here goes:

#1: The absolute LAST DAY OF TUTORING IS MAY 4 (the last day of classes).  Unless you have arranged with me to lead a group review session during finals week, you may not meet with students after this date.  Any tutoring you wish to complete during finals week must be done on a private basis, and you will need to coordinate with your tutee for payment.

#2: Your next paychecks will hit your bank account or the Co-op tomorrow.

#3: If you will not be in town to receive your final paycheck (May 6 or May 20), be sure to email me your address so we can mail your check to you.

#4: If you will be in the area and would like to tutor, let me know!  I’ll add you to the summer tutors list posted on our website.  Students interested in working with a tutor will email you directly and coordinate with you to set up payment.

#5: After the absolute last day of tutoring, we will be having a celebration to thank you for all of your hard work this year.  Mark your calendars for Cinco de Mayo.  2-4 pm in the Fireplace Lounge.  Seniors, we’ll have a special gift for you!

#6:  And finally, last but not least, I have included in this email a link to the Subject-Area Tutoring Program end of the year evaluation.  As I work toward planning next year’s all-tutor meetings and train new tutors, your feedback is incredibly important to me.  Please take the few minutes necessary to complete the survey.  Once you do, you can be entered to win a $25 iTunes gift card.
