Experince of My First Tutoring Session

          My first tutoring experience went well, the student that I had seemed very nice and happy that I was their to help her with her paper. The session went well, for the time that we had discussing her paper. She took my advice on some changes that she had to make throughout her paper, but she also asked questions and shared any concerns that she had. A strategy that from the text that I saw worked for me during the tutoring session was Collaborative Tutoring. The student and I was engaged in equal conversation about her essay, I didn't just solely speak not taking her interest or concerns into consideration. The only thing that I think went wrong was just nit be able to read her hand writing, which wasn't a main concern but some of her words was hard to read because they were missing words as well. But overall, the student had a fine essay with great amount of details and evidence to support your claim and opinion. I likes how she also used her own experience in her essay through her parents which made the essay more meaningful.
           In my next tutoring session, I would try to used my time well if I'm tutoring two students at the same time again. Its kind of difficult to give to students an equal amount of attention at the same time. I would have one student working on any corrections that they found in their essay while I work with the other student. That's the only thing that I would do differently in my next tutoring session. Some new strategies that I just learned that I would try for my next tutoring session is having conversation which is talking about our mutual interest, such as current event, music or sports. This helps a student who is having trouble developing  ideas for their essay. I would also talk to them about the topic, asking what do you think about the topic in your opinion? Do you agree or disagree with this topic or what would you do differently if you had the chance? I think that conversation between the student and tutor helps the student to brainstorm ideas and jot down notes to look back on later on, if their having trouble including more details in their paper.
