Hayley TS #3

TS #3:
Date/ time: January 21, 2016 7:00pm
Location: Astin’s home
Topic Skills: He had a reading test the next day so we read the book
Feedback provided to tutee: Astin has an extensive English vocabulary and a good attitude about working, but struggles when reading words or sounding them out. By doing more sight words and age appropriate books, he will quickly feel more comfortable when reading.

Lesson(s) about tutoring/ tutee: he can read (i.e. he knows the letters in a word and he’s able to sound them out but as he sounds them out, he doesn’t hear the word he’s saying), but he tells me he can’t. As he reads I’m unable to determine if it’s because he’s memorizing the material or genuinely reading it. I think I should use more scaffolding techniques when reading with him.
