Appalachian State University offers many opportunities for students to get extra help in difficult subject areas. One unique aspect to the tutoring services is the incoporation of the LEAD Tutors program. LEAD Tutors are used for Chemistry and Calculus classes. My sophomore year I was the LEAD Tutor for my Chemistry professor. This job entailed sitting through the lecture again, holding biweekly review sessions with worksheets I created, and offering additional help to any students upon request. The main purpose of the LEAD Tutors program is to have students who have had that specific professor in the past to help guide the students through the class.

 

I was very fortunate to have taken this experience as it taught me how to be a leader in the classroom setting. I formed relationships with many students while helping them prepare for the tests and quizzes. Also I enjoyed working alongside a wonderful professor who supported and believed in me. My time management, organization, and teaching abilities were definitely tested through this journey. However, it showed me how much I do enjoy teaching others.
