Serving as a Cram Crew consultant is no easy feat; it requires a strong amalgamation of skills. An exemplary level of proficiency in a given field may be an obvious trait of our consultants, however, there are an array of qualities that Cram Crew consultants embody. I could run through a list of requirements and skills, or I could tell you what our wonderful staff has to say!
“The perfect consultant knows how to get students from simply repeating what they’re taught to confidently being able to teach others what they know.”
Leslie V., Academic Consultant (AS, TP)
“I believe the ‘perfect consultant’ is someone who can or will do their best to be punctual. Punctuality is vital in both communication and meetings with clients. A consultant who is genuinely okay with driving is also important, as that is a large part and, at times, the most controversial part of the work. A consultant who is adaptable not only with their clients but with their schedule too. Lastly, a consultant who is detail-oriented is a great addition to have.”
Sam L., Field Service Assistant
“The perfect consultant is someone who knows there is always room for improvement and has the ability to be flexible.”
Cristianna J., Cram Crew Recruiter
“Open-mindedness would benefit consultants. This quality will help them break the ice with new students and facilitate a positive learning environment.”
Li H., Lead Editor (CR)
“Creativity! Even if a consultant is a math whiz or a grammar genius, they need to be able to teach that information in a variety of ways. They need to be able to TEACH, not just know the material. Not all students are the same, so consultants must be able to think outside the box and adapt to different styles of learning.”
Elizabeth W., Verbal Developer
“Confidence. If a consultant is confident in their ability to communicate with the students and parents effortlessly, the stress that could come with the test preparation or the college application process can be greatly mitigated!”
