With the title that so straight
forward, I think most people could have guessed what I am going to
share today. Before I start, I have to introduce myself in this
blog and it feels so awkward. It feels like you are talking to a mirror.
I am Aisyah, a newbie tutor in our
department, Department of Ultrasound. I just started joining this
department in January this year but before that, I already worked with
Vision College starting from March 2013. So, I already shed my blood,
sweat and tears with Vision College for 1 year *congratulate myself
A newbie means that I am lacking
skills and still on a journey of becoming a good tutor. So, I am
going to share 10 golden rules to become a good tutor.
1. Be honest
2. Be flexible
3. Be patient
4. Be a good listener
5. Be professional
6. Willing to share your own
experiences
7. Be a collaborator
8. Teach the student how to learn
9. Be confident
10. Use available resources
Most of people already know this, but
the difference is “Are they applying it?”
Challenges that we are facing as tutors nowadays are tough and it reminds me of a video showing how a mother
teaches her daughter. It is not related to this topic but it has
something that we can learn.

Lastly, people always said that
“learning is a continuous process” but for me teaching is also a
continuous process.
