Are tutors qualified in their subjects?
Tutors are highly qualified. They go through a rigorous vetting process, including education verification and ongoing background checks. They also have to pass a subject matter exam and complete an interview. Plus, Tutor.com has a quality specialist team that reviews sessions to ensure tutors are always providing the highest level of support.
What should students expect from a session?
Tutors provide encouraging, empowering support. They follow a Socratic method of teaching that helps guide students through the learning process. Your tutor will work with you to help you understand how to solve problems on your own. Learners regularly report that their tutors are patient, supportive, helpful, and kind. After your session, you’ll be equipped with knowledge to help you with future assignments. And if you ever need help in the future, you can always connect with us.
Can students work with the same tutor again?
Absolutely! You can add tutors to your Favorites list so that you can schedule a future time to work together—or check to see if they’re available for on-demand tutoring.
Can students review previous sessions?
Yes again! Just click “View your previous sessions” on your account page to see transcripts of your previous sessions. You can also replay past sessions.
