This was a tutoring session with Hye-jeong, my six year old tutee. We followed the same basic format that I've used in our previous lessons. This time, her mother brought a test that Hye-jeong did in class for us to review together. I was impressed with her grades, and pleased that she's doing well in school. For the most part, she only got a couple answers wrong. I hope that our sessions are helping. Afterwards, we reviewed her spelling words and finished her homework. She was being a little flighty during this session but I managed to keep her attention by reminding her that we could only read Maybelle (the chapter book we have been reading together) after she finished her homework. This seemed to be enough incentive to keep her on track. I had never needed to discipline her before, and even though this was a very light kind of behavioral correction, it felt strange for me. Finally, we did some handouts based on the topic of fall, since the first day of fall was on the 23rd. She seemed especially excited for Halloween.
