Tutor Resources
We understand that each adult student is a complex individual with a background that may be entirely different from the adult learner seated next to him or her. As educators, we often feel we can never be too prepared to address their needs and aid them as they seek to vastly improve their lives through learning. It seems there can never be too many useful materials readily available or too much assistance at hand. Still, there are vast amounts of resources that we, as educators, can use to aid our adult students and our intent is to collect and share with you as many of those resources as possible.
Please take full advantage of the resources listed on this website. We hope you find them useful for all types of services - - from devising specific lesson plans for your students to guiding your own professional development as tutors. We rely on your input so please check these resources often, suggest a service that might help others, and let us know if a listing no longer works. It is our aim to make the resource page as accurate and relevant as possible. |
