Giovanna TS #1

Date/Time: Wednesday 06/24

Location: Zoom

Topic/Skill: Needs Assessment and Diagnostic 

Feedback provided to tutee: Grammar error correction

Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned: During our session I had the pleasure of learning more about to Talal as both a person and student--he is very sweet and talkative! Talal told me that his least favorite subject is composition--both because he does not enjoy it and finds he struggles with it more. He also told me what he would like to work on most is using grammar correctly while speaking. So, for our next few sessions I will focus our content around those areas. Talal and I were able to build fairly good rapport during our meeting--I learned that this is essential in making students feel comfortable with their teacher/tutor. I also learned about the importance of tailoring lessons to students' particular needs. After I asked him the questions on the needs assessment questionnaire I gave him a short writing prompt to email to me so I could gauge his skills in composition. Talal and i will continue to meet weekly on Mondays and Wednesdays.
