Arjun Y

Thank you for this session!! It was really good, and I think your explanations were well said.

Arjun created a very comfortable and engaging learning environment. His learner asked questions throughout the session and was not afraid to speak up when they were lost, proving that they placed trust in Arjun. When the learner had difficulty understanding a step, he responded in a very patient, supportive tone. He simply went back a step, re-explained his previous work, and then continued. He paid attention to her level of (and therefore sometimes lack of) comprehension. He made it clear that he was more than happy to revisit a step if she got confused! One note - he may benefit from turning on his camera if he feels comfortable, as this tends to help foster a stronger tutor/learner connection.

Arjun made sure that his learner was never confused during the session. He asked the learner "Does this make sense?" and "Why did we do that step?" to ensure that they fully grasped the broader concepts, not just the one problem itself. Arjun also introduced an additional practice problem for his learner to check their understanding. Whenever the learner said that they did not know the answer to a problem or were lost, Arjun took a step back and worked carefully through the previous and current steps to refocus his learner and clarify their understanding.

Arjun kept his learner actively engaged throughout the entire session. It was roughly the ideal 50/50 learner/tutor talk time, which is amazing! Arjun consistently asked the learner questions about what steps should be taken, why, and if they need any further clarification. The learner asked lots of questions, demonstrating their engagement and comfortability with Arjun. To build upon this, Arjun might have benefitted from saying that he'd be happy to meet with the learner again in the future if she needed further help, but nonetheless, great job!
