The MTA is a professional
state organization serving the needs of those interested and
involved in tutoring post-secondary education. Our annual conference
brings together a group of people who care about issues in tutoring
and would like to share their successful strategies with you.
We provide Michigan tutorial personnel a network for sharing,
growth, and learning opportunities.
ASSOCIATION PURPOSE
AND OBJECTIVES:
- Promote interaction
among members of the higher education learning communities via
open and effective networks for sharing.
- Enhance professional
development and training for tutorial personnel by providing
opportunities to exchange theories, methods, and strategies.
- Provide opportunities
for tutors to develop their leadership and communication skills
through active involvement in the association.
- Create and encourage
an exchange of tutorial resources, research, and information.
New Conference at Jackson CC a Success on April 21
About 100 people attended the 1st Annual Conference on Supplemental Instruction (SI) & Tutor Services at Jackson Community College on Saturday April 21. People came from Lake Superior State University in the U.P. and from Bowling Green State University in Indiana. Eleven of the twelve concurrent sessions had SI Leaders or Student Tutors as presenters or co-presenters! We hope they will consider presenting at this fall's Connections Conference on October 26.
