Recently I was chatting with a RD to be about different tutoring programs and he was mentioning how he was between 3 programs. The first program was one that he had seen a lot of marketing for on social media, the second program was one his friends had recommended and the third was the lowest price. He, like I'm sure many of you guys have felt, was stuck on which one to pick! If you are working on picking the right RD exam tutoring for you here are some of my tips:
-Assess your needs. If your need is to have accountability, a study guide might not be the best for you. If you need to work on your own schedule, a live course might not be best for for you! If you aren't sure check out my free Self Study Assessment.
-Think about your schedule. Think about the amount of time your realistically have to study. If you are working full time or have kids you might only be working with 1-2 hrs. If you need help with your schedule check out my free RD Exam Prep course.
-Make sure that you have gone through the material you already have. You want to take advantage of the material you already have from your internship and school. I recommend to also purchase the Inman and Pocket Prep at baseline as well.
-Test out the tutor's teaching style to know it works for you. Most tutors have free classes (my Sunday 8p Facebook lives or check out my MNT Part 1 class) Or just buy 1 class to test it out. Seeing reviews from other students can also help you to get a sense of if that tutor would be a good fit for you. Also remember there is no reason to stick with just one if you enjoy working with different tutors for different needs. I have other tutors refer their students for help with MNT all the time since I am I clinical RD!
-Know what is included in the package you are buying. If it is a recorded course can you watch it more than once, how long do you have assess to it? For live classes, do you get a copy of the slides, is there time for Q/A. For private, is there in-between support, what resources are provided. (Just a few examples). If you aren't sure reach out to the tutor to ask!
I share these tips with you because my goal is to make sure that if you choose to work with me that you are put in the correct course. While I love all of my offerings, they each work for different types of students and I want to make sure you are in the right program for you! Be sure to check out all of my offerings on my website and fill out a contact form to set up a free discovery call if you aren't sure which program best fits your needs!
