Date/Time: 30 May / 7:30 - 8:30PM
Location: Tutee's home
Topic/Skill: Reading
Feedback provided to tutee: PJ, my child tutee,
is officially out of school for the summer so our focus from now on will be
reading primarily for leisure and enjoyment. We started a novel together, and I
went over unfamiliar terms and vocabulary with him as we came across them. After
a few pages or so, I would ask him to minimally summarize what happened so far
just make sure he was following along alright and I found myself having to
explain some background knowledge for him to help with this.
Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned:
I learned that it is a little more difficult than I had initially thought to
not only find level appropriate reading material, but also to find something
that the tutee would truly be interested in. It's been a while since I've been
a kid myself, so it's been a refreshing experience getting to know PJ.
