Follow on Google News | Podcast Discusses Guidance Counselors' Limitations in Providing College and Career AdviceTop-Tier Tutoring reviews the realities of guidance provided to each high school student by their counselors in its latest podcast. Is 38 minutes enough?
In this podcast, co-founder, tutor and college counselor Mike Rivera of Top-Tier Tutoring delves into the realities facing high school guidance counselors. A recent study determined that an average high school student will spend approximately 38 minutes per year with his or her guidance counselor discussing college counseling and/or career counseling. In order to take full advantage of the time, the podcast offers questions that should be posed. “A guidance counselor’s time is limited by the number of students assigned as well as other administrative duties required,” explains Rivera. He continues: “Most guidance counselors are willing and able to offer excellent advice to their students, but their time is limited.” In point of fact, the national student/guidance counselor average ratio is 1:315 in public schools and 1:241 in private schools. Top-Tier Tutoring releases several podcasts during the month dealing with issues of interest to high school students and their families. In addition, Top-Tier Tutoring produces a free podcast series, “Ear on Careers,” that introduces listeners to successful leaders in a variety of different fields, including business, industry, medicine, the arts, and so much more. It is the premiere career day podcast series on the internet geared toward those entering college or seeking a career switch.
