Guide for Business English Tutors

Sample Lesson: Possible Scenarios and Questions

Expectations on a Business English Tutor

What are the criteria to be used to evaluate the performance of the tutor in the B2B mock lesson? As discussed in the PowerPoint File Preparation for the Mock Lesson, the tutors will be evaluated using the same Lesson Evaluation System. Specifically, you shall be evaluated on the following criteria: Does the tutor have good English proficiency? Does the teacher capture student's needs by reading the tutoring notes in advance? Does the teacher always try to understand the situation/request of the student? Is the teacher able to provide better words/ expression? Is the tutor able to draw out the latent strengths of the student by introducing challenging activities? Is the teacher punctual?

Are material/topics well-prepared?

Is the teacher good at explaining things?

The tutors are then expected to exhibit these criteria either through proactively taking the initiative to explain further to the student, or as an answer to the students queries. In the following lesson, see sample scenarios and what a Business English tutor could possibly do in each of the different exercises.
