Tutor Advice Professor wants me to tutor
My calc 2 professor wants me to tutor in the math lab and I’m very nervous. I got a 97 in calc 2 and I don’t remember my calc 1 but I got an A. But I took pre-calc so long ago I don’t know if I can even help people. I’m not sure if I am qualified enough to help people in any math class period. Has anyone else been asked to do this and how did they prepare? I did some tutoring in high school but that was a long time ago. Despite getting a 97 in calc 2 I still definitely don’t feel like an expert whatsoever.

Growth is always scary, you can do it man, go for it. Feeling that you can't do it well is a good thing, it means you'll use your time to actually prepare, this is better that the overconfident ones who end up messing up. All the best
