Aayaan R

You did a great job coming into the session with a clear plan. You had specific definitions ready, such as for heredity and nature versus nurture, and you had practice questions prepared for the end. Your grasp of the material was strong, and you were able to explain complex ideas like genetic predisposition in simple terms by breaking down the word parts. When the student asked a specific question about the appendix, you handled it well by admitting you did not have the exact reason at that moment but confirmed it fit the evolutionary perspective.

The tutor did excelled at engagement by addressing both returning (Christopher) and new students when joining the session and inviting questions. Aayaan used a highly interactive format by providing practice problems after each main concept (ethics and statistics) and dedicating time for students to solve them independently. He then actively facilitated the review, calling on students by name to share their answers. This structure ensured active participation from everyone present. When explaining the complex normal curve problems, he successfully guided Miranda to verbally explain the multi-step solution, demonstrating Aayaan's careful attention to the effective use of a student's prior knowledge to reinforce the concept for the entire group.

Aayan created a consistently warm and comfortable learning environment. He used an encouraging and casual tone giving positive reinforcement after every student's answer (Good job, Like, on the dot. Good job.). He successfully built a good relationship with the student by opening with a casual greeting and asking students where they were from. The tutor also effectively facilitated peer interaction, for example praising Miranda for her detailed explanation of the normal curve problem and encouraging other students to follow her example. He consistently ended sections by asking for feedback on the part of the session's clarity (Was it pretty easy?) before transitioning to the next topic, showing his desire to keep students involved and confident.
