Tutor Application
Below is the application that anyone who wants to be a tutor should fill out. These will be reviewed by an admin and then moved into the Tutors board if everything checks out. Please be honest on you application, as anyone looking to get help will consider the information there before deciding if they want to work with you.
Even if you don't think you're that good of a writer feel free to sign up to be a tutor. All of us have our strengths and weaknesses, and all of us will have them listed on the app. Even if there's just one tiny thing that you're good at, it could really help someone out. Also, no tutoring session is limited to just one person, so if you're not sure of something or think someone else could explain it better, then invite them to join in.
