Tutor Reminder

A MEETING OF MINDS

Recently, we held a Dialogue with Lead Tutors together with a National Colloquium for Tutors. These two events took place at the Legend Hotel in Kuala Lumpur from 10 to 12 April. Quite a number of tutors turned up for these events and the feedback we received was mostly positive. We hope more of you will be able to join us in future dialogues and colloquiums so that we can acquire and exchange diverse but enriching ideas and views besides sharing experiences. To fi nd out more about what took place during the two events, please have a look at what one tutor, Margaret Lok Lai Sung, has to say in her article in this issue.

[ Back ]

I developed my tutoring style mostly through:
	Observation of other tutors - I select tutors either from OUM or other universities and try to emulate them as much as possible.

	Reading materials related to effective tutoring - I choose the styles recommended by experts and try them out.

	Trial and error - I believe it is best to do it my way and continuously improve until I get it right.
