    Hi All, going for an interview for a tutoring position tomorrow.

    i've done my research but am looking for a few bits of extra info/help
    I'll be tutoring adults in a computer based classroom

    any suggestions of questions?
    i've Google'd and got some but its mostly american, thought some irish brains might have something new.

    what do i do if one of the students is being an ass and they are aged 40. and bigger than me.

    Give them a warning saying that they could be removed from the course if the behaviour continues. I'm sure that would work as some of those students could be on social welfare and are made do the course and if they were thrown off the course this could affect their payment. I don't think this sort of stuff goes on in adult ed. Good luck with the interview.

    thanks for asking,

    hmm. it went ok ish, i was nervous and all the time i spent going over course work over the past few days wasnt asked about.....

    they did however ask if a student is uncooperative what should i do....

    who knows the woman who was in before me said the same thing. its wasnt a hard interview though, i might just not have come across as how i wanted etc......
