HOW TO BECOME AN ONLINE TUTOR?





A teacher must be a graduate of a four-year course in education. In my case, I took the Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in English, then had my MA-ELT, Master of Arts in English Language Teaching at the Philippine Normal University while preparing for the FIRST LICENSURE EXAMINATION FOR TEACHERS in 1996. Once an education graduate passed the LICENSURE EXAMINATION FOR TEACHERS, she is now permitted to teach at a formal educational institution.

My license was forwarded to the New Era High School, a public institution, but I was already teaching then at the COLLEGE OF BUSINESS EDUCATION AND ADMINISTRATION of the NEW ERA UNIVERSITY, a private school, for two years, so I ignored the ''OFFER'' because I was thinking of giving services first to my Alma Mater before I could achieve my goals in life, or before I could reach my so-called ''ULTIMATE DREAM'' that time.

As a licensed ESL teacher, I did not stop from acquiring more knowledge and from developing my skills so I can be internationally known until I was able to amass world class competence and international language abilities.

In 2006, I established my own training centre geared up for my other ''ULTIMATE DREAM'', the ONLINE TEACHING / TRAINING or ONLINE LEARNING. That year, distance education was already prevalent and had been offered by various sites or pedagogical institutions but merely confined in offering books and other learning materials to be brought home and to be read at home; researches to be submitted at the end of every course; and homework help done on various www.coms.

Year 2006 when I started conceptualizing and intellectualizing what I dubbed as the ONLINE TUTORING / ONLINE TEACHING / ONLINE TRAINING WITH A LIVE ONLINE TUTOR. I made lots of researches on the internet and on different libraries. I also made lots of queries. I talked to lots of people regarding ONLINE TUTORING / ONLINE TEACHING / ONLINE TRAINING but usually they couldn't give me definite answers to my queries. Even my brother, Bern, couldn't understand all the things that I was trying to explain to him. So the usual thing he could do was to give 1PHP to any of my nieces or nephews who would be told by Bern, my brother, to talk to me or to call the ''mental hospital'' for I was talking some strange things to them.


Since then, I worked very, very hard on this project, ONLINE TUTORING / ONLINE TEACHING / ONLINE TRAINING WITH A LIVE ONLINE TUTOR/TEACHER/TRAINER.

Before my brother, Bern, died in August 2010, he was able to acknowledge my effort and had even planned to make this ''ULTIMATE DREAM'' of mine the ''GREATEST PARAMOUNT DREAM'' but GOD did not permit my brother to do his plan for me. The Lord called my brother in 2010 leaving me behind as the SIMPLE LIVE ONLINE TUTOR-TEACHER-TRAINER.

ONLINE TUTORING: BUSINESS IN EDUCATION

http://edudemic.com/2012/01/online-tutoring-2012/
Online Tutoring definitely helps the students, the parents, as well as the teachers in many ways. But one of the best thing that Online Tutoring gives to people is savings.

Because a student can now study in the comfort of her own home, she saves time and effort in going to an educational institution for her TUTORIALS OR TRAINING. Parents save money spend on fares, snacks, and other allowances. Teachers also save time, money, and effort by NOT leaving her place so she can do more tasks and can prepare her lessons and teaching materials efficiently without thinking of commuting in order to go to the house of the tutee.

There are many good things this ONLINE TUTORING has been giving to us. In fact, those who are inclined to business can make this ONLINE TUTORING as his own business, too.

WHAT'S ONLINE TUTORING?


For everyone to know what ONLINE TUTORING IS,  I've decided to write this blog.

Here's how wikipedia.com defines ONLINE TUTORING.
" Online tutoring is the process of tutoring in an online, virtual environment or networked environment in which teachers and learners are separated by time and space. Online tutoring, as a reflection of the diversity of the wider Internet, is practiced using many different approaches and is addressed to distinct sets of users. The distinctions are in online content and interface, as well as in tutoring and tutor-training methodologies. Definitions associated with online tutoring vary widely, reflecting the ongoing evolution of the technology, the refinement and variation in online learning methodology, and the interactions of the organisations that deliver online tutoring services with the institutions, individuals, and learners that employ the services. This form of Internet service is a classical micropublishing situation.  "

You may read more about it by following this link.

As an educator, a mentor, a professor, an ONLINE TEACHER, an ONLINE TRAINER, and an ONLINE TUTOR, I also have my own definition of what ONLINE TUTORING is.

Here's how I define the term ONLINE TUTORING.

Online Tutoring Facts



Online tutoring is a recent evolving field. Tutors use whiteboards much like classroom blackboards to communicate (draw, write etc.) with their students. The sessions are often interactive, with both student and tutor able to participate freely via video and audio connectivity. The software includes an interactive whiteboard, VOIP and text based chat.

The internet offers sophisticated and state-of-the-art technologies a tutor may use in assisting a learner. An online tutor needs more complicated abilities and  competence to be able to do a multi-task ONLINE teaching. An ONLINE TUTOR or TEACHER DOES NOT ONLY GIVE HOMEWORK ASSISTANCE BUT MOST OF ALL, SHE MUST BE A PARTNER OF THE COMMUNITY, THE SCHOOL AND THE FAMILY OF THE LEARNER IN DEVELOPING AND ENHANCING THE LEARNER'S PERSONALITY, CONFIDENCE, ACADEMIC, SOCIAL, INTELLIGENCES, THINKING, COMMUNICATION, COMPUTER, AND EMPLOYABILITY SKILLS.

A LIVE ONLINE TUTOR is a teacher who LISTENS TO HER STUDENT WHILE DISCUSSING  the academic subjects to be learned ONLINE. A live online tutor is always in the ONLINE CLASSROOM to guide, interact, explain if needed, talk when needs arise, analyze, evaluate, and give the wants of the learner as well as to bring to mind pedagogical suggestions and recommendations.

The use of LIVE ONLINE TUTORS in TEACHING ONLINE is pioneered by Jean Ayende Totanes who saw the potential of developing the person's MULTI-INTELLIGENCES and PERSONALITY through internet interaction. She left her position at an International School in the Philippines just to start TEACHING ONLINE in 2006.

She found out that even the whole family of her student joins in the learning process online. They enjoy the comfort of their own home as well as the state-of-the-art technology they can find on the net. Learning is fun and much easier because of the availability of the materials and the equipment. "
