Among September’s observances, is the celebration of One-on-One month -- what a lovely idea, that of giving pause and heed to one-on-one, person-to-person interaction. But this sort of connection is not confined to cozy, dimly lit dates. There are a variety of scenarios where personal attention has resulted in increased well-being, success or self-esteem, and the formation of a meaningful relationship built on mutual respect trust. These run the gamut from personal coaching in sports to psychotherapy to Catholic confession. Herein we will briefly touch on two of the most popular forms of one-on-one interaction.
Tutoring
Tutorzilla states, “The definition of a tutor is: ‘One who is acts as a private teacher and is charged with the instruction and guidance of another’. A tutor can also be defined as: ‘A private instructor or coach who gives additional, special, or remedial instruction.
Whatever the definition, at some point or other in our academic lives, almost everyone needs a tutor. Even the brightest kids may have one troublesome subject, or maybe they just need a little extra boost to get the higher grade and get into the college of their choice. With the fierce competition to get into good schools, a little algebra tutoring, calculus tutoring, or science tutoring may be just what you or your student needs.”
Personal Trainers
Now a mainstream commodity, the success rate of personal training is well-documented. So much so, that even the budget-conscious consider this kind of investment prudent. In the article, Do You Need a Personal Trainer? 10 Reasons a trainer may be right for you, author Elizabeth Quinn details the following benefits of employing a trainer to work with you one-on-one:
