tutor 13

On June 15th I met with my tutee Matthew’s twin brother David at Leroy Collins public library to go over his writing and grammar while Matthew tutored with someone else. Since I had never worked with David before, I could have him do activities for the first time that I previously gave to Matthew. So I pulled out my cell phone and let David watch Star Trek (2009). Just like his brother on May 27th, I asked David to write about each scene that he watched and together we would go over his writings for errors. One thing I noticed about David is that his handwriting is easier to read compared to Matthew’s. Also David will go over the amount of lines requested compared to Matthew who will write the bare minimum. Besides one error in word choice (“his wife got a baby…” instead of “his wife had a baby…”) and a run on sentence, David’s writing and grammar were good for his level.
