What’s kicking, Aska?<\/p>\n
I’m going into third year in September and I’d like to be like a mentor or a tutor or something for some 1st or 2nd year students. I’m not looking to get paid for this, and I’m also not looking to associate with anyone other than U of T students (IE that high school thing they’re always advertising at Sid Smith is out). Any suggestions aska? I’m a philosophy major and my GPA kicks ass… if either of those things matter…<\/p>\n
Thanks! <\/p>\n
while spending time with first-years for free doesn’t exactly sound like a walk in the park, there are places you can do it if you feel so inclined.<\/p>\n
U of T offers a peer tutoring program<\/a>, where all tutors will recieve an official letter of recognition from a U of T professor! awesome? not quite. but it looks great on a grad school application. all the contact information is here.<\/a><\/p>\n just remember – those first years are vulnerable. just because you understand the critique of reason doesn’t mean you have to be unreasonable.<\/p>\n cheers, askastudent<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What’s kicking, Aska?
