As an online tutor, it can be tricky gauging how a student is feeling about a lesson or concept. Tutoring in-person, we draw upon non-verbal cues like facial expressions and body language to read a student, then adapt accordingly. In a chat setting, we are entirely reliant on the student’s ability to share this information with us.
This past week, we introduced a new feature that aims to take some of the guesswork out of determining a student’s learning needs. Student Canned Responses provide students with handy shortcuts for expressing themselves during a session.
Check out the following infographic which outlines the new student canned responses and provides tips for responding to them during a session:
As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us with feedback via the #new-ideas channel on Slack or via email at tutor.support@yup.com.
Happy tutoring!
