What we’re talking about:

It’s nearly the end of Term 1 and everyone is reaching out asking for tutors. But do you really need one? How do you know? And is career counselling a better alternative for you? Let’s break it down and work out what would actually solve the problem you’re finding yourself in.

3:18 Questions to help you decide what you need

There are 2 questions I want you to think about to help you decide if you’re better off with a tutor, a career counsellor, or even an entirely different type of support.

1) Do you think you need a tutor for one subject, or with 3 or 4 of your subjects?

2) Do you know specifically what you need help with?

Your responses to these questions give a good indication of the problem you’re actually trying to solve by getting a tutor.

7:52 What type of tutor would suit you best?

Should you get help from someone who recently completed VCE and did really well in the subject, or are you better off getting help from a qualified teacher? It depends on what you actually need help with.
