You demonstrated a high level of adaptability. When the student was struggling with the first graph-based question, you didn't just give the answer. Instead, you broke down the problem by first asking him to restate the passage's conclusion and then guided him to look for that conclusion in the graph. Similarly, when he asked a broad question about how to avoid making the same mistakes on future inference questions, you adapted your advice, providing a practical strategy: "Try to always, always, always break down the passage." You also offered a useful grammar rule for independent clauses after he showed he didn't fully understand them. This ability to pivot and provide targeted, personalized advice is a sign of an experienced and effective tutor.
