Dr. Jennifer Hurd, Past President, National Tutoring Association

“Good combination of high-quality video narration and real examples. Each module includes a review with certification assessments at the completion each module. The pacing is good, and it was fun to watch these tutors work with their tutees. The TutorLink modules are easy to pause or log-off in mid-module and come back later where I left off. I could use this course every year to remind me of the basics and improve my tutoring skills.”

“I also tutored Math and Science during my junior and

senior years. I was in AP Calculus BC as a senior and AP Physics. I mostly tutored 8th and 9th grade math students. My high school guidance dept. would recommend me (and other students) as a tutor. I also made

$20 per hour…that was fine with me since I had a heavy schoolwork load and many after school activities.” Parent Cafe Parents Forum 3. New Addition: “My Son tutored math (he was ahead of the typical accelerated sequence by a year) and Spanish in HS. In his case, it was an outgrowth of volunteer tutoring through National Honor Society. A few classmates whom he tutored while volunteering asked him if he would provide additional tutoring for a fee. I think he also charged $20 an hour.He liked tutoring classmates. He was familiar with the texts, and often, the teachers. Mainly, it was kids just struggling with a few concepts”.
