Howdy!
These days, I found my tutor to be getting more and more
inefficient in his work. Whenever I asked a question, he'd try to
solve them and when he can''t, he simply says,"Check with your
teacher and get back to me."
I was like speechless. I mean, definitely I'd go check with my
teacher. However doesn't he have a responsibility to help me check
up on the question as well? Both of us have to play a part in
seeking for the answer, isn't it? (though I too have a role to play
in my own learning)
What's more, this teacher once came from prestigious schools.
Wondering if I shuld continue having tuition with him. He used to
be quite active in helping students with questions(but that was
when my friends and I first joined him. Think that's part of his
efforts to "keep" us as his students) and would immediately check
up questions which he can't solve.
Kind of irks me to think that I pay money for a service that
doesn't even exist.
It doesn't matter whether the teacher is from a pretigious
school or not. Being clever or from a good school doesn't mean
someone is a good teacher and vice versa.
Is his behavior just temporary or has it been this way for some
time? If its temp, it might be because his busy lately but if its
been for sometime, maybe you can just request for a change of
tuition teacher since it seems like hes slacking and not that
interested to teach anymore.
