Mary Phillips TS #4

Date/time: November 9, 2015, 4:30-5:30

Location: Public library

Topic/skill: Vocabulary and plurals

Feedback provided to tutee: Many of the games I found online were self-scoring.  I probably wouldn't have put a grade on them myself, but they were an inherent part of the game or website. Generally, I only provided feedback when asked specific questions by my tutee.

Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned: This was the first time I had to work to get my tutee to focus.  She was really well-behaved but she got a little antsy after awhile.  She really wanted to try the harder games such as the ones designed for 5th grade.  I realized that, obviously, it was better to have too many games/websites planned instead of running out of things and having to find more on the spot.  Like last week, I'm really glad I brought my laptop.  Worksheets generally only take three minutes maximum to complete so it's a lot easier using the computer than printing 10+ worksheets every session.
