Hello, Tutors–

Please take a moment to complete an evaluation of the Subject-Area Tutoring Program for this academic year. If you were also an SI Leader, please complete this evaluation, as well.  As we make plans for the Fall semester and next academic year, this feedback is invaluable.  Thanks!

Information for New SI Leaders:

Welcome, New SI Leaders!

I am very, very excited to have you join our team for Fall 2011.  To help ease that transition, I have some important information for you all.

#1: Our training will be held this SUNDAY, APRIL 29 from 6:00-8:00 pm in L/L A101.

#2: I have included links to a training outline and a new leader observation record (remember, you will need to observe 2 sessions with current leaders prior to our training on Sunday).

#3: You will need to prepare a 5(ish) minute “mock” lesson or activity to present during training.  More information about this is on the training outline (link above).

#4: You can find this and more information on the tutor blog.  There is even a special page just for you: “For SI Leaders.”

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns before Sunday.  See you all soon!

Best,
Rachel

Get Organized This Study Season

Hi, folks–

You have a ton on your plates right now.  Feel free to use the pdf study organizer we created in the Learning Co-op to organize those ambiguously categorized time you have set aside for “studying” at the end of this semester.  Breaking large tasks down into smaller, more manageable pieces not only helps you better manage your time, but also helps keep you motivated.  Set yourself 30 minute tasks and and reward yourself with a 15 minute break after each hour of uninterrupted study (try to avoid checking your email or Facebook until these study breaks and watch your productivity increase!).
