Editor's Notes
- Personalize--Learning is not alike for any two people, so each individual needs the time and space to work through their own process. Tutors create this space, providing support and tools to meet students where they are—and to develop talents they may not know they have. Connect--Tutors who take the time to know their students, seeing past initial impressions and fixed judgments, can guide those students through their learning process. Tutors create relationships, so students can fully learn. Although these relationships can be with knowledge—theorems, studies, and books—the learning is most powerful when carried through human connection. We can cultivate these connections and build a safe space. Believe in growth--We know students can learn. We know that, with enough support and effort, they can not only succeed but excel in every course. Even if they are failing English or hate geometry, those skills can be developed. And we can help in that development. Highlight the opportunity for growth--We focus on the process of learning so students can develop this skill. Even as we go through essay structure or algebra problems, students will find themselves building study strategies and shifting towards a growth mindset. The best learning extends beyond any subject.
- Research shows small improvements in grades; one study showed only a .1 increase in GPA. However, growth mindset also encourages students to seek new challenges, so subjects become more complex. Growth mindset must be practiced in supportive environments. Positive results can happen when teachers focus on growth and added challenges rather than successes. Pinning up a poster is not enough! What about students who don't have the fundamentals? In order to progress, one must be self-reliant but ALSO have access to resources and willing to adapt to new strategies.
