Since historical text was in the past, it will most likely use past tense verbs. The effect perhaps isn't the best term for present-tense instead for past tense verbs. What it does best is to make a narrative sound more alive, and draws readers in.

<em>Notice that Euchner uses present-tense verbs in his account.  </em>

<em>     1. In what verb tense is historical text usually written?</em>

  • <em>In both past and present. It is necessary to use the present tense to discuss the actions and ideas that are present in the text. For example, “Edgar Allan Poe in his Method of Composition explains all the steps he generally follows to write short stories”. In this example it is stated that despite Edgar Allan Poe is dead his ideas are present in his Method of Composition.  </em>
  • <em>We use the past tense when writing about specific historical events. For example, “Winston Churchill said that Germany was dangerously building his armies again.”  </em>

<em>     2. What effect does using present-tense verbs create?  </em>

  • <em>The effect it has, is related to the fact that despite the writer is dead or alive, his or her ideas continue to be present. Literature is a present observable fact.</em>

Whether or not a tutor has experience in a subject does not matter
ankoles [38]

Answer:

I believe a tutor should have experience in the subject they are tutoring for.

Explanation:

I believe a tutor should have experience in the subject they are tutoring for because it's important for the tutor to understand the concepts they are trying to teach. It would be harder if a tutor just wings it, and teaches a student about a concept they know nothing of. Furthermore, it's also very hypocritical. The student might think, 'why is someone teaching me about something they don't know?' The tutor isn't going to help the student get any better, and the tutor isn't getting any better by teaching something they don't know anything about. Therefore; it is important and essential for a tutor to have substantial experience in the subject they are tutoring for.
