Work For Students: Taking Advantages Of Becoming A Tutor
By:Michael Cockson

Choice of a part-time job may become a real dilemma for students. Young people may have too many requirements for their vacancy. To begin with, the working schedule has to allow juggling one’s work with studies. At the same time students lack professional proficiency and need to find a job requiring minimal qualification. In addition, being aimed at improving their living standards students might want too high salaries for their part-time working day.

In order to get a sensible view of the opened up opportunities, young people need to research the existing labour market. Students who are afraid of decreasing their learning achievements due to their part-time job might become tutors. It will help to combine the useful with the pleasing. On the one hand, students will get certain financial benefits. On the other hand, it will be helpful for raising one’s awareness of certain issues as well.

Pros and cons of becoming a tutor

Tutoring has a lot of advantages. It allows combining one’s work with studies and is helpful for enhancing one’s proficiency. On the condition that a student becomes a good tutor, it will help him/her to gain authority among one’s peers. A person does not have to have only “A” grades in all subjects for tutoring others. Having a profound knowledge of only one subject would be enough. By the way, senior students might easily tutor freshmen.

The moral aspect might become a hindrance for choosing this occupation. In fact, some students might tutor others free of charge. On the other hand, why should one waste one’s personal time tutoring others in this era of market relations? Before becoming a tutor, one should think over

1.the subject;

2.the compensation for one’s services;

3.possible categories of customers.
