My third tutoring session is by far my most favorite one. I loved the tutor. There were two students and one tutor. The tutor did not waste no time she went right away to asking them what a they needed help with. the first student that was very rude the student just went in and asked how to spell 3 words and the meaning of the words, after the tutor went to get a dictionary which i loved a lot. this was a short session with the tutor and it was really enjoyable just a couple pf grammar problems and some spelling her and their . the tutor did repeatedly ask if the student needed help with anything else. she saw they had a of time left and she asked if they had another assignment from another class. i really enjoyed that because it was obvious she wanted to help them and provide as much help as possible

Observation #2 and #3
In my second observation the tutor i got was very nice in the sencw i was superised to see that it was only one student this time rather then two. the tutor she helped the student a lot by letting the student read her paper by herself so she could see where she messed up. also i think she was Maybe a little too nice. The student was writing a philosophy paper and she was going off topic telling the totuer her personal life thing about her family and kids. I thought the tutor was going to cut her off and refocus her to her assignment but the tutor let her go on it become a little too personal to be a tutoer. This is a classic example of what a tutor should not become which is therapy. As a tutor you should never get too personal, After the student was done and focused back to the paper the tutor did a very good job she saw that it was a HOC problem in her paper because the student could not create a thiese for her paper. the tutor also did a lot of cheer leading she would praise at everything the student would say something and that kind of confused the student because she was asking her after so which one is better the first one or second one?. I was also able to see that in this part of the writing center the walls were much more decorated with paintings and articles pg newspapers then any other part of the writing section i would like to know why is that? . i really loved how the tutor asked the student questions that help her clarify the side she was taking in her paper.
