– Tutor started the session well, asked about students day/week, as well as how their last exam went, and created a comfortable relaxed atmosphere.
– Went through questions on networks. When the student asked questions they encouraged the student to think how to solve the problem themselves while guiding them with hints, instead of just giving them the asnwer. They made comparisons to things in daily life that student understood well (when explaining a network they made comparison to railways etc which the studnet understood very well).
– Gave plenty of encouragment and support to student anytime they got frustrated or thought negatively, which worked well.
– When the student correctly answered questions also gave them praise and kept energy up.
– All of students exams were done, so Tutor let the student have a little bit more leeway to sometimes talk about other things, but still kept it to a good level and got them focused back to work after little breaks.
– Wrote some questions on whiteboard as topic quiz at end of lesson to make sure they understood everything. Got student to go up on the whiteboard and answer the questions keeping session interactibve, student liked that too mentioning how it made them feel more studious.
