It is important to keep in mind that during the tutoring process, remediation is often slow. This, by no means, is a negative reflection on your ability as a tutor. Mastering and practice of specific skills is a slow process. When planning and implementing tutoring, the teacher needs to remember that no matter how hard you and your student works, the skill will probably not be mastered in that session. It is important to remember that each day is a success if you are able to build on the previous days work

     This guideline is important to remember in conjunction with guideline one. Since a skill will most likely not be mastered after a single session, it is important to remember that repetition is the key to mastery. A student will need a dozen or more iterations of skill practice before the skill is to be fully mastered.]]> 2019-04-19 17:11:21 UTC https://padlet.com/dbcousins/t9prvaikcvsl/wish/352780532 dbcousins https://padlet.com/dbcousins/t9prvaikcvsl/wish/352780655 Student First, Teacher Second
    Student words and ideas are never to be thought of as unnecessary or unproductive when it comes to helping them master a skill. It is crucial that the student speaks first when attempting a skill. The teacher needs to make sure that their words are  response to the students attempt of the skill. ]]> 2019-04-19 17:12:01 UTC https://padlet.com/dbcousins/t9prvaikcvsl/wish/352780655 dbcousins https://padlet.com/dbcousins/t9prvaikcvsl/wish/352884236 Think Small, the Go Smaller!
      Remediation is having to find the problems down to the smallest individual part with which the student is struggling. Simply working with a comprehension skills or fluency practice may not be enough because the problem may be smaller. This is where initial assessments are extremely crucial to pinpointing a specific skill that the student needs to be working with. If a student does not work with the initial struggle, then measurable progress will be very difficult.]]> 2019-04-20 23:12:27 UTC https://padlet.com/dbcousins/t9prvaikcvsl/wish/352884236 dbcousins https://padlet.com/dbcousins/t9prvaikcvsl/wish/352885276 A Single Question can be a Leap Forward
         When working with a student, the first question or prompt used to help a student can lead to their success. If a student is struggling with a new skill, the teacher can offer great support with the questions being asked. The teacher does not want to lead the student but rather guide the student toward an understanding of how the skill needs to be properly utilized. ]]> 2019-04-20 23:45:03 UTC https://padlet.com/dbcousins/t9prvaikcvsl/wish/352885276
