We Die a Little

We conducted training for new tutors yesterday and today.  We came up with a simple model to describe the basic steps of a tutoring (or, indeed, teaching) session: First, DIAGNOSE the student's needs.  Next, INTERVENE: Offer instruction, explanations, etc.  Finally, EVALUATE the success of your session: Ask the student a follow-up question, for example.

So just remember: To provide a quality educational experience, all you need to do is DIE.

    This is a reason that the percentage of suicidal English teachers is on the rise.
