Hey everyone, it was great to see how friendly her student was and how well they got along. Her student was very comfortable her student felt with her!. They had a great relationship and they got along really well. They started by going through her students homework. They went through different types of questions to work out what the difficulty of the questions. They did some easy questions a when her student felt more confident they then moved on to do some harder questions. They went through some practice responses, so her student could understand an appropriate structure she can follow. They then tried to apply the exemplar.

Thea got her student to read the exemplar out loud. Thea then asked her what she liked and didn’t like in the exemplar and what she should include in her own response. They the worked on crafting her students response. They then did some editing of the response, looking at spelling and grammar. When her student got stuck, Thea would give her student some hints to help her. If her student made an error Thea would then explain what error she made and would then go through the correct steps her student would need to follow. Thea gave her student some homework, based on what they went through in the session.

Overall, Thea did a great job helping her student. It was a great session and such a pleasure to observe. Keep it up!
