World Religions Tutoring FAQ
Taking a Religious Studies course is a great way to develop an appreciation for cultures throughout the world. Not only do you study the principle tenets of all of the world's major religions, you also study the diverse impacts that they have had on the world. If you need a little assistance to make the most of this challenging course, 51吃瓜网 can refer you to a dedicated Religious Studies tutor to help you pursue your academic goals.
Here are some of the topics you may explore during college Religious Studies tutoring sessions:
What is a Religion?
The Neuroscience of Myth and Belief
Religion in Ancient Egypt
Judaism and its Impacts
Christianity and its Impacts
Hinduism and its Impacts
Buddhism and its Impacts
Islam and its Impacts
The Role of Religion in International Relations
History of Religious Conflicts
Religious Texts as Literature
Religious Studies tutoring can help you break everything down so that it's easier to understand. For example, flashcards may make it easier to associate religions with the regions of the world they are most prevalent. They may also help you remember the key tenets of each faith you are examining. Religious Studies tutoring sessions can also be a great place to refine your academic skills. For instance, many Religious Studies classes involve a research project comparing and contrasting the faiths studied in the course. If you're having a hard time getting started, your tutor may show you how to create an outline to help ensure that you include all of the information you planned to. Students with a tendency to digress into unrelated topics may also benefit from the structure an outline can provide.
Likewise, active reading techniques can help you retain more of what you read. Whether you are examining a primary source to get a feel for a religion's belief system or a Biblical passage for its literary elements, a close reading can make it easier to prepare for classroom discussions. If you aren't sure how to do this, you can practice during college Religious Studies tutoring sessions.

Recent World Religions Tutoring Session Notes
Today we discussed the meanings of names in the Bible and where they were located in the book. As part of the homework, we did a word search, and the student enjoyed it because it was like a game for him.
Also, we reviewed vocabulary words, and he knew about 70% of them. These words were not going to be tested but were incorporated into his reading and literature studies. I can see his work ethic improving.
I met with the student yesterday to help him study for his upcoming Religion test. We focused on the 4 pages of reading that will be tested, memorizing terms, creating an outline, and understanding any confusing words or concepts. I think he had definitely made progress by the time we finished our session.
We spent the first half-hour reviewing materials for the student's test on Monday, and then switched to creating and reviewing note cards for her world religions test coming up on Thursday. She is making good progress in learning and understanding the material, and I feel confident that she will be ready for Thursday's test after our sessions tomorrow, Tuesday and Wednesday.
I discussed with the student the syllabus for her upcoming intensive course and the assignment instructions for various papers that will be due in January, as well as strategies for completion. She now has a plan for completing the first set of reflection papers, including note-taking strategies and a clear understanding of the goals of the assignment. She will e-mail writing samples and drafts, and I will review and give feedback about these essays when I receive them.
First, the student and I looked at a moral theology case study exercise for his class regarding an example of a hoarder. The questions here were whether this person's actions were immoral, and if so, then how; what was the degree of culpability involved for the person; and finally, how could we help such a person. Apart from talking through the person, we started the writing process for the answer as well. Secondly, he had to talk about a news article that demonstrated an issue that threatens human dignity. He chose an article on the anti-gay laws in Russia, and so we walked through that case and spoke about the answer to that question regarding the matter of human dignity.
This evening the student and I continued to review for the exam in history. We started the session discussing any areas of concern that the student had. The only area she identified was the amendments to the Constitution, specifically some of the latter ones. We discussed those and she felt much better.
We also worked on some general social studies skills (charts/graphs, reading comprehension, etc.) through study island. She did well with those earning passing scores on all of the mini-quizzes.
I think the student will do well on the test and I know she will be happy when it is over!
