my own. Since that wasn't working, and the end of the semester nearing, I did something I never did back in high school: I sought tutor help. The tutor I met with, Cecilia, not only helped me craft near perfect lab reports that were needed to narrowly pass the class, she also inspired me to be a better person. It turns out, which I later found out, that university tutors are not required to help with lab reports. Thus, it occurred to me that Cecilia helped me out of her own whim. I realized all…
Consider hiring a tutor. One-on-one sessions with a private tutor can work wonders with students who just weeks ago seemed unable to grasp the subject matter. Learning in a pressure-free environment probably has as much to do with that success as does the one-on-one instruction.

assessment. Brown and Knight (1999) suggest that if used in an effective manner, formative assessment can help students to be more autonomous in their learning and to reflect on their performances and take responsibility for their academic growth. As a tutor, I tend to rely on formative assessment with my students; the reason for this is to…
Over the course of this term, I have learned several helpful techniques to incorporate into tutoring sessions. I’ve also learned about problems that can arise when tutoring and how to avoid making poor decisions. One of the best practices that I have learned is how to systematically address different problems a student is having with homework, by breaking assignments down into a more accessible format.

In these settings, I was able to utilize the PBL approach where my scientific knowledge had greatly expanded. I facilitated group demonstrations of the human cadaver, tutored students in and out of class, and…
