So it was my first time tutoring and I had two tutees', to be honest having two tutees' was too much for me. One of the tutees had a good paper, the only thing wrong with his paper was that he needed to go more into detail, ex; he stated his parents were illegal immigrants, he needed to state where they worked and how many hours they worked a day. he also needed to add a title., he had little mistakes which is LOC. The second tutee paper was all over the place, he went off the topic a lot and had lots of mistakes, his paper dealt with LOC and HOC. He had a title though. Both started their paper like...Yes undocumented immigrants contribute to our economy, I agreed with him that he should start his paper over.
When the second tutee began to write his paper over, I told him to use the one-sentence summary strategy, good thing I remembered that, he didn't know where to begin, I did tell him to keep the beginning how he started his draft. While he worked on his paper, I went to the other tutee and asked him questions, so he could begin to write details. With his paper, I talked aloud a lot and when I saw something that didn't make sense, he heard me say it and tried to change it around. I told him every paper needs a title. the second tutee definitely needed all my attention. he had only a sentence and I needed him to free write, write anything that came to his mind, I told him he could use the same example he used in his other paper because it sounded good. I wish I would've spent more time with him on his paper. I feel like I didn't help him as much. He definitely needed me the most, I wish I would've outlined his paper for him. Time went so fast.
