Instructors Guide:
1. Standard answers are not encouraged. Discuss with the students and lead them to the
correct answer.
2. Allow and push the students to express and explain the answers, at the same time, correct
their mistakes or concepts.
3. If the tutorial questions are not yet covered in the lecture, it should be carried forward to
the next tutorial.
Students Guide for Tutorial:
At university level, the tutor facilitates student learning without spoon-feeding. Therefore, you
are expected to:
Read your textbook, attempt the questions before the tutorial
You may enter the class and sign your attendance after showing your tutor that all tutorial

questions have been completed; even if you dont know how to do, write something youre not advised to leave answers blank in the finals.
Write answers on board if you wish to receive tutor feedback
(no answer, no feedback)
Be independent: consult textbooks or dictionaries on your own first before asking the tutor
All questions are compulsory. 1 mark may reflect 1 answer point.
(No half mark is awarded in the finals marks)
