Last week one of my blog posts focused on why writers should get tutors to help them better understand the subject they want to write about.

The reason is obvious. You get a fast, focused education.

Zoom, zoom, zoom.

Today I’m going to tell you why you should still get a tutor even if you already understand a particular subject. 

You see whilst I’m here in Montreal I’m studying French with a couple of private tutors.

I do know some French from listening to language CD’s on and off for the past couple of years. And my vocabularly is growing just from being in a predominantly French speaking city.

But interestingly what I gathered from one of my tutors has accelerated my skills a hundred fold.

He teaches me things that I already know far more efficiently than the 2 or 3 ways I learned them on my own.

So a tutor is useful for helping you learn new things, but also in teaching you how to do things you currently know more efficiently or quickly.

Even if you consider yourself fairly well versed on a subject, it might be worthwhile to see how other people convey the same message.

Remember readers want more than just great information, they want the “better-and-faster” advantage. If you can cover those two bases, you’ve got the makings a great ebook.

Never be too damn smart to continue learning and grow rich,
