Professional Development
Tutor Professional Development:
Working in the English Center can be a challenging and rewarding experience. Your expertise and patience are an important part of student success at City College. In order for us to grow our skills and work experience, tutors are required to participate in professional development each academic semester. These modules are meant to be timely, interesting, and completely relevant to the work we do in the English Center and in education overall.
Invitation:
You are invited to develop your own professional development modules. Please talk to me about your ideas, and let's put them into action!
This website is our professional development home. Please refer to your current semester to find the most current information and requirements.
