Private vs Volunteer Tutoring

<p>What looks better on a high school resume? Do colleges view one more favorably than the other?</p>

<p>Well, I do both. I have been tutoring two students at my high school at an hourly rate. Last year, I volunteered as a homework helper at my local library. I’m not sure if one is more favorable than the other, but if I had to pick, I would go with the volunteer tutoring. It shows you’re helping your community by giving back and so forth. But, if you can do both simultaneously, shoot for it.</p>
