Practice Coaching

Important notice: If you have trouble registering for your next English course because the online system does not recognize ENG 1620 as equivalent = go to OneStop and they can help you register.

In class today we discussed Chapter 8, Coping with Different Tutoring Situations. You did some role playing and talking to get some experience using language that can help you re-direct or re-start coaching sessions that have gone wrong.

In any case where you feel you are not able or up to dealing with a student you should excuse yourself and speak to the GA who is supervising the Center. In the rare case where a student becomes angry or abusive, you should not even attempt to resolve the situation; simply excuse yourself and speak to the GA.

For Tuesday:
Continue to observe coaching sessions in the center. Don't forget to sign-in, and to complete a tutor observation sheet. Be sure to date your tutor observation sheets. You will need to turn them in with your analytic essay.

Write: continue to work on your persuasive essay

During class you will work on the reflective writing for the persuasive essay, and on setting up your portfolio for the second grade check.
