Attendance! I wasn’t expecting students to be away 2 weekends in a row. And catching up is going to be difficult for absentees.

Great! Sometimes a bit restless especially if and when they bring their phone with them, but I’ll make it clear that no phones until we have a break time

Good! I’ve got a teaching partner this cycle and I noticed the student is more comfortable than he was last cycle. Especially when it’s 1:1, or 2:1 for the past 2 weeks.

I think attendance is also a concern for me for now

Figuring out how to balance the casual tutoring setting and serious learning setting. I don’t want to overwhelm the student, but it’s important that I make good use of the time we have.

Having to balance out the lesson between the weaker and the more advanced students but we are trying to manage it for now
