Unit 1: Understanding roles, responsibilities and relationships in education and training
Understand the teaching role and responsibilities in education and training.

I have always tried to deliver my sessions with lots of enthusiasm which I believe helped to create a positive learning experience for my students by asking them questions so that I know that my students actually understand what I am delivering. If students don’t understand it gives me the opportunity as the tutor to adjust sessions accordingly.
There are many boundaries to teaching which may occur is a number of ways. As a mentor I would be expected to be act in a very professional and not that of a personal nature, always acting impartial and non-judgemental. In my own personal experiences as a progression tutor I have found some negative boundaries such as meeting deadlines and targets on time, this maybe due to the fact further education (FE) colleges are more run like businesses as they in competition from other organisations for student numbers....
