Tutee: Sujin Yang

Location: Student Union

Topic/Skill: Pronunciation

Feedback provided to tutee: Mostly implicit corrective feedback on pronunciation, as well as teaching new unfamiliar vocabulary words/phrases that would pop up in the conversation through context clues.

Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or tutee: I learned that sometimes it's okay to not follow the lesson plan for one-on-one tutoring if the tutee has individual needs that differ from those of other students. The overall experience should still be student-focused at the end of the day.
