Support Provided by Tutors to Students during Instructions in Selected Colleges of Education in Ghana

Overview
The study was carried out to ascertain the kinds and the extent of tutors’ support to students during instructions, and the differences in the views of the students relative to the support they receive in class based on gender and level. The second- and third-year students of the Colleges of Education participated in the survey constituted the study population. Descriptive cross-sectional survey design was employed to guide the conduct of the study and questionnaire was the tool employed for the data gathering. Pre-testing of the instrument was done in a College of Education in the Western North region of Ghana. The study disclosed that tutors regularly demonstrate emotional and instrumental support to the students during lessons while they sometimes demonstrate informational and appraisal support to the students. It also emerged from the study that while the male and female students differed in their opinion on the level of support that their tutors offered them at lecture, the second- and third-year students shared similar views. It could be concluded that the support that the tutors offer their students at lecture hour needs to be scaled up to enhance their students’ learning, improve their performance and enable them to do same for their future students. It is, therefore, recommended to the authorities of the colleges to frequently organise seminars and workshops on the essence of professional practices such as tutor support in teacher training for the tutors to enable the latter to exhibit those support mechanisms during lectures.
