As a GUTS conversation partner, what are my responsibilities?
A. As a tutor, you are expected to possess subject proficiency and knowledge, respect each student as an individual, build each student’s confidence through honest encouragement, give total attention to all students during your tutoring sessions, serve as a guide rather than as an authority figure, and show patience and understanding of all of your students’ abilities. GUTS tutors are also expected to show up on time to their tutoring shifts and contact GUTS staff with any problems, concerns, or if you are unable to make a shift.
