Tutor News September 2023 Welcome back . . . . . . And, if you're new to our amazing tutoring community, hello, it's going to be awesome! I hope you've had a glorious summer, have managed to catch some sunshine, and are feeling refreshed and revitalised for the new 2023/2024 academic year. Whether you've tutored with us before, or have recently been successful at interview (congrats if so!), this special back-to-school issue is jam-packed with useful tips, tools, and pointers to ensure that the young people you're supporting will get the most out of tuition. (You may find the Social Mobility Commission's State of the Nation 2023: People and Places report, published this week, insightful about education. See the full article on our website). Our learning platform Thinqi is the one-stop-shop for all your tutoring needs, and, in this issue, we'll be sharing some of the links that you'll find useful (and may even want to bookmark!). And, as soon as you have your first assignment lined up, watch out for the email on pupil assessments and how to frame them so they are as effective as possible.
