I have definitely had some ups and downs tutoring. The downs have largely revolved around one client. This client got frustrated very easily and would take it out on me in a loud, degrading, and inappropriate manor. In response(the one I think the client was looking for), I backed down on trying to help the client get the information and basically chickened out. After the tutor meeting about the good, the bad, and the ugly, I was ready to try some different techniques to try and get the client to calm down, but I have not had to use it yet. The client has since been reasonably respectful, which is definitely a great thing.
The only other bad thing has been students who haven’t come prepared or expect me to teach them everything the prof wants them to know for the test. (more…)
