The primary function of an Afterschool Tutor is to help students learn, by reviewing content with them, explaining how to solve problems, and checking completed work. A tutor may also help students develop study skills and organization techniques to help improve their academic performance. In addition to the academic component, tutors are responsible for supervising small groups of students, providing discipline and serving as a role model. After-school tutors must possess a passion for helping students learn and have the knowledge and skills to help students find new ways to look at difficult skills and concepts.
