Date/Time: June 9 4:00
Location: Library
Topic/Skill: Reading
Feedback provided to
tutee: I told David to try to be a little more open-minded when it came
to reading and advised that he tried to think about his interest when choosing
what he wants to read.
Lesson(s)
about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned: Throughout all of our sessions
together trying to get David to actually sit down and focus on something to
read for more than a few minutes has been a near impossible task. So for this
lesson I was hoping to spark his interest in reading by having the two of us
sit down and take turns reading a few paragraphs of a book, while pausing at
times to discuss the narrative. This wasn’t nearly as simply as I thought it
would be since David grew bored with most of the books I picked out so quickly
and the books he wanted to read weren’t available in the library. We eventually
settled on reading “The Hunger Games” and I would assist David with words that
he had troubles with during our reading. Then for the final 10 minutes of the
lesson we talked about the world that was being set up in what we read thus far
and I had him use actual examples from the book to ensure he wasn’t just
pulling memories from the movie.
