Tutors generally work at schools and tutoring centers to help students reach learning benchmarks, pass their classes and prepare for tests. They get to know their students including their strengths and weaknesses related to a subject, their personal learning style, their academic goals and expectations from teachers and parents. Tutors often teach by walking a student through their homework, asking questions to guide the student toward the correct answer while also showing the logic behind their approach to solving problems. They may also provide progress reports to the student’s guardians and make recommendations for additional support
