Buddy, Are you willing to share your tests? Are they paper or electronic format? Thanks, Jill Jill Gosseen LARC Coordinator Moberly Area Community College 101 College Avenue Moberly, MO <mailto:[log in to unmask]> [log in to unmask] 660-263-4100 ext 11310 From: Open Forum for Learning Assistance Professionals [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Thomas Shay Sent: Thursday, December 6, 2018 8:59 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Assessing Tutor Math Skills Jill, We use tests as part of our interview process. The math test covers mostly lower-level math like college algebra, and we have separate ones for chemistry, writing, etc. We also have interviewees take us through a mock tutoring session as part of the interview, which gives us a chance to see both their technical skills and their educational demeanor.

A couple of my dual credit math tutors are telling me they didn't cover the math material in their dual credit courses that they are now being asked to assist our in seat math students with. Is anyone else seeing this issue? If so, what are you doing to overcome this? Is anyone using a "math test/quiz" with any new hires to gauge what they know or don't know? I have also experienced this same situation with dual credit Found of Chem course. Anything you are willing to share with me is greatly appreciated!
