tutoring year 7-12 in one class!

So I’ve just found a tutoring job which is really exciting. It’s at a tuition center which is also quite helpful bc the hours and times are consistent. Problem is the manager would like me to tutor people from yr7-12 all in the one class (about 7 students all in all) this seems quite daunting has anyone ever managed to cope with so many varied abilities under the same roof? On top of this in subjects like English different schools read different texts, now imagine that with 6 different year levels. Any advice?

Personally I wouldn't feel comfortable tutoring yr 7-12 in the one class as their needs would be very different, unfortunately, short of leaving I doubt there is much you could do about this. If I had to be in that situation I would try to focus on developing skills common across all of them.

Good luck

I haven't really heard of this happening tbh. I know sometimes tuition centre's bunch up grades that are close to each other like years 7-8, 9-10 but never this broad.

I think you will need to generate a system whereas you are teaching whilst the other students have something that they are doing to make sure students aren't just turning up and having to wait for you to teach them.
