Hey everyone, today I had the great opportunity to observe Kate.

It was great to see how friendly her student was and how well they got along. It was great to see how her student was very comfortable with Kate ! They had a great relationship and they got along really well.

They started by going through her students common mod assessment task. They looked at the notification and started going through the work her student had done so far. They worked on edifying her students work and making sure her essay aligned with the task notification. They went through the common mod syllabus to make sure she was using syllabus words throughout the essay. They then started to plan what she would need to do to finish the assessment task.

They worked through any questions her student had. They also went through her students homework from last session, which was to work on the essay.

It was great to hear Kate’s explanation of the text and her advice. Her explanation was very clear and detailed. She also made sure her student stayed focused and engaged with the topic for the whole session. When her student got distracted, she would guide her back on track.

It was great to see how engaged Kate’s student was. Kate’s student was doing a great job answering all of her questions. When her student got stuck, Kate for a great job explaining to her why the sentences didn’t flow properly or make sense.

Kate did a great job helping her student pick appropriate quotes and techniques. She would ask her student to determine wha technique the quote uses and the to analyse the impact of the technique. If her student needed help, Kate would do a great job explaining it to her student so that she could understand how to apply a technique and to analyse it herself.

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