If this question is proposed to you during your interview, you will likely be providing direct tutoring to students as the next Academic Support Coordinator at this institution. Ideally, your interviewer will be looking to hear that you have direct experience tutoring students at some level. If you do have this experience, talk in detail about the age of your students and the subject you tutored. Be sure to mention something that you liked about each tutoring role you have been involved with. If you don't have direct experience providing direct 1:1 tutoring to students, that is okay. Be sure to talk about what you feel are the important experiences, skills, and qualities you would bring to the role in providing direct tutoring to students.

"Yes, I began tutoring younger students in my neighborhood when I was still in high school. I started with one student, and then several other parents contacted me for help. I enjoyed getting to know students and helping them to tackle their homework. The subjects I excelled in were math and sciences. This experience helped lead me to a career in education. While I haven't had experienced in professional tutoring during my working career, I feel confident in my ability to provide individual and group tutoring to the students at your institution."

Yes. I have tutored students of different ages. I first began tutoring in high school. I continued to tutor in college to earn money. I started small and soon parents would contact me for help. I tutored only mathematics. I enjoyed the one-on-one experience and really getting the opportunity to help students succeed.
