The learner already let you know what her concern was before you really had the opportunity to ask, so it looks like you picked up a solid understanding of the learner's prior knowledge. You also asked further questions about what grade the learner is in; I cannot really tell where you applied this in your explanation, but it's still completely okay to ask. You also clarify what the learner specifically needs help with the problem you're going over. This definitely helped you adapt to her needs. This learner in particular did not have too many concerns and picked up the topic fairly quickly, so there wasn't that much of an opportunity to adapt your tutoring, but keep an eye out for the specific concerns of learners in future sessions. I did notice that you asked if the learner had any prior knowledge of physics, and I can see how that would have been helpful for you to tailor your tutoring. Nicely done there! Since this is a one-on-one session, you do well at engaging the learner. You utilize an example with a car to further your point, and it was definitely successful! Finally, you confirm the learner's progress effectively by asking if she understands your explanations throughout the session. You did a nice job overall!
