**Based on your application and experience, we will make a decision on whether the Tutor or Mentor role is the perfect fit for you.

Mentor role:

Students need more than help and experience to master the necessary skills, they need inspiration and motivation to keep them focused along the way.

• Reviewing your students’ work through the CareerFoundry platform on a regular basis with a view on how it would fit into an industry-ready portfolio.
• Be available for 1-to-1 video calls to help prepare your students entry into their new industry.
• Suggesting supplemental learning materials and personal insights in areas where students are struggling.
• Teaming up with a tutor to answer more advanced queries or for a higher level of troubleshooting.
• Responding to students within < 48 hours.
  

Tutor role:

Tutors give vital feedback on assignments through written reviews guided by our course curriculum and rubrics. When students are struggling with understanding a key area, tutors are there to support and encourage them, sharing resources and providing insights into the industry.

Tasks:

• Regularly reviewing student exercises submitted through the CareerFoundry platform.
• Submission reviews and checking for a fundamental understanding of concepts.
• Suggesting supplemental learning materials and personal insights in areas where students are struggling.
