Meet the TutorTalk Staff
Editor - Anya T. first considered the PTC upon completion of her first NCVPS during Covid-19 and virtual learning. To her, it was an opportunity
for connection based on her past experiences and during times of rebuilding.
She wanted to help ease tension and provide explanations when it was harder to
reach teachers and others and continuously aims to provide support in a tough
learning environment. She currently tutors in Math, Science, and Spanish, from
Middle School to AP classes, and is a member of the Virtual Buddy Program and
Writing Center. Anya works with students as a VB to help get them back on track
through worrying times and is excited to work as a Co-Editor this year. Anya is
excited and committed to assisting others in publishing articles about new
information and experiences. She looks
forward to a year with fellow members of the PTC community.
It is great to see so many students that are willing to help out their peers. Students often can relate to and teach other students in ways teachers can't. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, and very proud of our students helping others, there is not a better way to understand a student than another student.
ReplyDeleteThese students are an inspiration for and a great resource to their peers. I am amazed at how many subjects they cover!
ReplyDeleteThese students are amazing! I think that it is great to know that there is some help out there for students who are struggling in certain things, including myself.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! For someone who has just started tutoring for NCVPS, I'm already so proud to be in such a positive and supportive group.
ReplyDeleteAwesome job!
ReplyDeleteThank you Peer Tutors for all that you do! NCVPS teachers and students appreciate you so much :)

ReplyDeletepositive thinking brings brightness to the eyes, more energy, and happiness. Our whole being broadcasts good will, happiness and success. Even our health is affected in a beneficial way. We walk tall, our voice is more powerful, and our body language shows the way we feel. (Myra Reid)
ReplyDeleteThank you for helping students reach their goals. It is really encouraging to see the effort you all put into helping your peers.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for taking your time to help others be successful. I can only imagine the impact you are having on these students.
ReplyDeleteI am so impressed with this group! I appreciate your hard work and willingness to contribute to the learning of your peers. Servant leadership enriches the lives of everyone and promotes the understanding of being a part of something bigger than ourselves. Thank you for your contributions.
ReplyDeleteIt's really great! Thank you for helping students to get target their aims. It is really nice job to encourage. Keep it up. May be this information will be helps for someone, Sapientutors also providing good 1 to 1 Home Tuition in Singapore.
ReplyDeleteIt is so wonderful to be apart of such a united front of learning! I am impressed to see help even for students in Singapore.
ReplyDeleteThank you ladies for what you do! As a former online student, the online world can very lonely. To an independent worker with the right support system, this is fine. But, for those students who don't have the resources they need readily available, what a powerful tool to have virtual peers supporting them! This is also such a powerful way to model to service to others to your peers, and I hope that it also strengthens the tutors in their own understanding of the content. Thanks for investing in others!
ReplyDeletePeer tutoring is a great way to deliver effective support to the many struggling student. Furthermore, peer tutoring can improve the content skills of tutors as well as tutees (Ehly, 1986) and - in some studies-have been shown to build tutor's social skills as well (Garcia-Vazquez & Ehly, 1995). Example: young children tend to find the opportunity to read aloud to an older peer tutor to be quite reinforcing, adding a motivational component to this intervention.
ReplyDeleteSo interested to hear that the peer tutoring involves anxiety and mental health issues as these issues appear to be growing in our society and are not always adequately addressed.
ReplyDeleteYou ladies are amazing and going far! To manage a blog, stay on top of your courses and help others. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI am very impressed with the services provided with the PTC. Thank you for also being involved with the virtual buddy program. As an online graduate student, there have been times I would find myself unmotivated and this would have been a big help. I also think it's wonderful that you are willing to help with so many areas of tutoring and motivation!
ReplyDeleteGreat Job! Angelina and Sylvie, I really appreciate your enthusiasm and your great help to students. Keep the hard work and the wonderful spirit.
ReplyDeleteI am very impressed with this program. Dealing with stress and anxiety are at all time high and you are amazing for helping out. I think this is awesome.
