Common Mistakes
Going Off-Beam
The Tutor is the choreographer of the tutoring session.
It's the Tutor's job to keep the session on track.
"Off-beam" is diverting the focus of the tutoring session away from the Student's work.
- gossip about school, other students, or the instructor.
- share their own previous experience with the subject.
- discuss another topic within the subject.
Students go "off beam" when they...
- talk about other topics.
- arrive late or unprepared so the topic of tutoring is something other than the work.
- getting the Tutor to go "off beam".
