What Does it Mean to be a Tutor?

What does it mean to be a tutor? Tutors hear from Saga staff and students about what it means to be a tutor. They also examine what motivates them to be a tutor and what they hope to accomplish in the role. This module includes an introduction to Saga's five guiding principles of high-quality tutors: 1) high expectations, 2) sharing the spotlight, 3) taking accountability, 4) acting with urgency, and 5) never giving up. The training offers tutors insights from others about what it means to them to be a tutor and prompts them to reflect on what motivates them to tutor. This is an example of building context for tutors about their role and building cohesion by introducing them to the guiding principles and values of the organization.
