The session was really good, I liked how the SAT questions were a bit more confusing or even difficult, cus it showed more weaknesses with my SAT strategy. And the tutor explained things in a perfect manner that showed the best answer, and the how and why that is the correct answer instead of a different option.

I appreciate how we went over the questions even if it was just a few; it helped me review some of the stuff I've forgotten. Thank you!

Yes, there is evidence that the learners made progress during the session. Aiden periodically checked the learners' understanding, elaborating on their explanations and providing additional examples. This approach helped reinforce the concepts taught and ensured learners grasped the material. Aiden's attentiveness to the learners' comprehension and willingness to clarify and expand on the lessons contributed to their overall progress and confidence in the subject matter.

-You ask the learner what they want to specifically go over before offering your own ideas. When you do pitch an idea, you make sure that the learner is okay with it before proceeding. It's also great that you asked them specifically how familiar they are with Algebra concepts (20:12). You also don't leave the question open-ended and give options (review, learning new concepts, etc.) to facilitate their response. Good job here! -Firstly, you're able to communicate mathematical concepts pretty well considering that the learner only used chat. I loved that you asked the learner why they don't like watching Khan Academy videos, presumably so that you can avoid some of the points they mentioned. You also show in practice that you're considering the learner's preferences, such as when you decided against watching the video together. -You constantly ask the learner to participate, even when they're not solving the entire problem. An example of this is you asking them what they think an ordered pair is. This is a one-on-one session, so it's fairly simple to engage the learner, but you go above and beyond in this session. -You confirm the learner's progress constantly throughout the session by asking if they understand your instruction. You get a good idea of their progress by asking personalized guiding questions regarding specific problems. Great job!

Aiden, you did a wonderful job tutoring Algebra 1 in this session! It is evident that you have a deep understandings of all of the topics that you covered. You allow the session to be learner-led and allow them to take most of the important decisions when it comes to the way the session progresses. Nice job annotating the screen to show your work to the learner; this allows them to visualize the problem clearer. You make it a priority to engage the learner throughout the session and make sure that they grasp the topic before moving on. It's clear that your undivided attention was on the learner. Great job overall!

Thank you so much for today's session Aiden, math is difficult to understand sometimes but your explanations made it super simple, and made it easy for me to grasp the concepts quickly! You're very polite and patient and it's truly appreciated. I'm looking forward to our next sessions!
