Tutoring is a useful tool in making the most of your time time while studying. Tutoring should be seen as an investment into your future, your career and your love for the subject you're studying. However, it cannot only provide a fantastic impact on general knowledge in a particular subject (e.g Chemistry) but helping you to improve your confidence and attain a positive attitude towards learning. Don't be afraid to invest in your own future for you only get one shot at your education, so make sure it's the best effort you can give.
I hope to cover briefly, a few things that have been on my mind: firstly- statistics (boring statistics I know) however the information I found is fascinating. Secondly, what careers do pupils who take on science tutoring (specifically chemistry) decide to embark on.
On with the statistics:
An interesting statistic provided by essex.gov.uk stated:
'Since the national roll out in 2009, over 45,000 tuition places have been taken up by pupils in Essex schools.'
In 2009 there were 89,253 pupils in secondary schools with in Essex, from this number 45,000 pupils took up tuition; this is over 50% of the pupils (This information was taken from School-Places-in-Essex ). Interestingly this is only the tuition that the schools know about, there may be many more pupils who decided to take on private tuition.
The idea is that tutoring can have a positive impact on your future; pupils have stated that they feel their lives are significantly improved because of the new-found confidence their tuition experience has given them (essex.gov.uk)
Tutoring chemistry for the future:
As a science tutor (with a passion for chemistry) I have been amazed by the different careers pupils with a love for science have taken. Lets take into account A-level chemistry, a good grade achieved in A-level chemistry can open careers in medicine, healthcare and pharmacy; as well as careers in law as many pupils have mentioned that taking chemistry helps to cope with difficult concepts, which they may experience in law.
Forensic science is very popular at the initial stages and many pupils desire to be working to help fight crime using blood analysis and fingerprints; however, in reality the expectation is not always the same as what you would see on shows such as CSI and NCIS.
Of course there is also a career in teaching which is very popular with science graduates as their is always a need for teachers. As well as this, nursing is a popular field which can offer work stability, good rates of pay and a career that is never boring.
The list is endless..........
A strong science based background can offer key skills to develop in most careers. So it is vital that effort is put in at the beginning to help strengthen your educational development.
Tutoring can hold the key; giving you a good foundation to help you prepare for the areas within science (biology, chemistry or physics) that you are still unsure on. Invest now to give yourself the best possible start to your future.
The truth
Of course having a career based around science is where my profession started from, so I am coming from a biased standing point due to my passion for science; however, it is important to stress here that all subjects should be treated with the same time and effort into achieving what you are capable of; however, one truth is more roundly accepted and that is this:
Education is the key to a civilised society and of course a better world.
