AVID Tutor

• AVID Tutors are key to the success of the AVID program. Tutors are trained to use specific teaching methodologies and materials to work with AVID students. Tutors work with AVID students in study groups and individually, assisting them in all academic areas to make progress toward college and career readiness skills.
• AVID tutorials take place in small groups that are subject area specific. AVID tutors help students achieve their full potential by facilitating collaborative tutorial groups. Tutors use Socratic questioning and collaborative learning techniques to help the students come up with the answers to their questions on their own and by working with fellow students.
• Conduct in-person tutorial sessions that underscore the principle of collaborative learning and the practice of students teaching other students through discussion of class and text notes.
• Determine concepts to focus on from student tutorial worksheets, notes, and discussions.
• Guide students to take responsibility for their own active learning while providing strategies they can use independently.
• Assist students in any subject area, by being familiar with students’ textbooks, materials, and AVID classroom resources.
• Provide constructive feedback online and/or in-person on student work.
• Support AVID scholars through care and connection; take responsibility for the tone and atmosphere of the AVID classroom.
• Assist the AVID coordinator as requested (e.g., contacting teachers regarding course outlines and assignment schedules, helping with field trips, contacting parents).
• Communicate regularly with the AVID coordinator/teacher regarding student progress and areas of concern.
• Set an example of personal excellence and high expectations for AVID students to follow.

• AVID tutors should be excellent role models of motivated, organized, successful college students who believe that AVID students will succeed. They should work in a supportive manner with secondary students and understand the delicate position they occupy; they are advocates of students, yet ultimately responsible to the teacher.
