PokéCommunity Tutoring Program
Introduction
Third time is the charm folks! Once again, we're putting a tutoring program in place. We have every intention of having an active and worthwhile program that everyone will get a lot out of. It is no secret that our activity fell off a cliff, so we really need this to work. With that in mind, please only sign up if you have the time to do this and are willing to put in the effort to teach/get better! It really will make the process run much more smoothly, so we'd really appreciate it if you take into consideration that this will be a bit time-consuming and will be going on for over two months. Thanks!
Details
As for how exactly this will work, there will be eight students and eight tutors. Each student will be assigned to a tutor. Once that happens, there will be one month of tutoring and then a tournament between the students to check progress. Then there will be another month of tutoring and then a second tournament to wrap up this first round of our tutoring program. The time for tutoring is a little arbitrary so it is subject to change, but we will not delay the tournaments too much or this will run on for too long.
To summarize, the basic process is as follows:
The tutoring as well as the tournaments will all take place on Pokémon Online. If you don't have access to it, you can't sign up. Note that you will be teaching/will be taught Generation V OU. The most obvious broken Pokémon have now been banned, so it's a level playing field and a great opportunity to learn how to play Pokémon at the highest level.
Signing Up
We will accept applicants on a first come, first serve basis for the most part. In the case of tutor applicants, we are looking for people who have proven that they have a strong understanding of fundamental competitive battling concepts and know how to translate that to actual battles and winning. In other words, we're looking for regulars, if only because they're the only people we know meet the requirement. If you sign up and are passed over, that just means that we haven't seen enough of you to know if you're qualified. Come on the server and post in the main forum some more and you'll make it next time! As for students, regulars are NOT allowed to apply. That is the only reason we will skip anyone over.
Everyone who wants to sign up should post with the information requested below. You can just copy and paste whichever application applies and then fill them in with the necessary information. We will accept eight tutors and eight students. You may not apply if you're banned on our Shoddy Server. Otherwise it's kind of hard to do this. Again, you must have access to Pokémon Online to sign up in either role.

Is there anything else you'd like to include about yourself?
