Our next tutoring was as up in the air as possible. We decided to “coffee shop” it up and it turned out to be a great location to study, review and check out really cute girls. The later of course was not exactly academic but we had to review anyways because we have a fine appreciation for all areas of study.
This go around we came to the agreement that a review of his homework would be best suited for that lesson… Between examining our surroundings of course. The overall flow of his homework was very basic and he had pretty much written out the sentences already and wanted me to review them. After remembering a piece of a lesson that we reviewed in CIES I decided to use the “question” technique. When he would ask me a question about a gap in the sentence, I would respond, “I don’t know, is it?” The response was very positive and I would say that a good ¾ of the time questioned, my partner was spot on with the correction that he suggested.
Honestly, I felt that my job was already done for me this round. We were very productive and in going over homework he had already completed and just doing touch ups was a great way to feel productive and an even better way to review.
