Dawn StrachanOur reputation is so important when we start tutoring. I believe it starts so long before we find our first student by being helpful. If you would like a free copy of my book: Become a tutor: Build confidence. Change Lives I'll send one out to you
Dawn StrachanThere is always the danger that we have preconceived ideas about the child that we are working with: a dyslexic child will struggle to spell. A child on the spectrum will want to follow the same routine every time. A child with ADHD will lock focus
Dawn StrachanPutting yourself out there as a tutor takes a lot of commitment. Always in the back of your mind knowing that no- one may be interested. Each day you put one foot in front of the other and keep going in the belief that today will be the day!
Dawn StrachanTutoring is probably never going to fund your own jet and you can't do it for your own ego, you have to do it for the benefit of the child. Be the person who gives them the time, the explanation and makes the difference to their lives
