Session #3 on the Writing Center!!!

                                                   Great Experience (Session # 3)

On my third opportunity I had finally the   chance to observe a female tutoring a session. She had the whole time a smile on her face and showed herself very friendly. The writing center secretary introduced us inside the tutors’ office and the tutor seen to be happy of having me observing her on her tutoring session. Once again as we were alone she introduced herself and invited me to go to the session as soon as we get there she introduced me and herself to the tutee and invited me to have a set.

To begin with the session she asked the student to tell her what was the topic of her paper and what were the ideas that she had plus what is that she knows? The tutee explains her that her paper was about the education and the money. There is when the tutor starts asking about her personal opinion about the subject. After the tutee finished talking the tutor suggested the tutee to let her read the paper and then will discuss it. I really enjoyed the session the tutor was really pleasant and respectful. After reading the paper she noticed that the student had some part of the paper that wasn’t that clear so she states, “This is really good, I love this paragraph but I think this could be even more clear, we can’t work on the grammar since the paper haven’t being grade but we can work on the structure to make it more clear” I truly liked the way the tutor referred to the tutee she was very careful to not heart her feelings and to make her comfortable whole they work  on the paper.

This session was the best session I had so far I enjoyed and love the tutor, she was always positive and with a smile on her face. The tutor ended the session saying that if the tutee wants can always come back and she will take a look at it at any time even after the professor make comments on it and grade it.
