Topic/Skill: Listening and Speaking skills
Feedback provided to tutee: We listened to different videos together and then talked about the content afterwards. I asked him general questions and then had him explain the answers to me. If he did not know the answer, I would re-play the clip and if he still did not understand I would explain it to him. After I explained the answer, I would have him explain it back to me again and again until it was correct and he felt comfortable with the material. He needs the most help with speaking, instead of listening, I will focus on speaking for our next session.
Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned: My tutee lives in South Korea so it was interesting speaking with someone in the country I want to teach in. I learned that you may have a lesson planned out, but you might have to adjust it completely based on what the tutee actually needs help with. Thus, you have to be able to think quickly to come up with different ideas to teach the tutee.
