 Date/Time: October 28nd, 2023. 5:25 PM-6:15 PM

Tutee: Sandra

Location: ZOOM

Topic/Skill: Robinhood/ Reading Comprehension 

Feedback provided to the tutee: The main focus on reading outloud was pronunciation. I asked Sandra that when she struggled to say a word to let me know then. I gave her feddbakc when she pronounced it right eventhough she thought it was wrong. The way I gave her feedback on mispronunciation iwth her noticing was by highlightinh the words and coming back to it at the end 

Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or tutee: I learned that it is better for Sandra to ask me questions on pronunciation when she is struggling because when we wait to the end os the activty we forget what was the mispronuncaiton. [We did 3 session in one day, but giving breaks was vital. I also learned that overwhelming a student with work is not effective. Taking out time and reviewing everything calmly allowed her to learn a lot more and made us have a good time.]

The activity provided an opportunity to learn new vocabulary or find alternatives that fit a situation better.
