        < Emma Baker TS #19 & #20 (Catalina) > Date/Time: Monday, April 6, 2026, from 1-2:30 PM Location:  CIES Topic/Skill:  Phrasal Verbs (Review & Writing Sentences) (Part ?) Feedback Provided to the Tutee:  We finally finished the phrasal verbs! This was convenient since it was our last tutoring session. We then reviewed the ones she had more difficulty with overall. Lesson(s) About Tutoring and/or the Tutee You Learned:  We had a brief conversation at the end of this session, so that I could ask what worked for her and what didn't in terms of my tutoring abilities. She liked that I provided a variety of activities, including some activities that incorporated several English-speaking skills in one. 

        < Emma Baker TS #17, #18, & #18.5 (Catalina) > Date/Time:  Wednesday, April 1, 2026, from 1-3 PM Location:  CIES Topic/Skill:  Phrasal Verbs (Review & Writing Sentences) (Part 5) & Speaking Practice Feedback Provided to the Tutee:  Yet again, we continued with the phrasal verb packet. After completing the next page, Catalina and I caught up casually while practicing her speaking. We talked about spring break and the week she was sick.  Lesson(s) About Tutoring and/or the Tutee You Learned:  Get to know your tutee! It makes the process so much more fun, and it makes each session feel like hanging out with a friend. Obviously, keep it professional, but it's fun for both the tutor and tutee if you take time to get to know them.

        < Emma Baker TS #16 & #16.5 (Catalina) > Date/Time: Monday, March 30, 2026, from 1-2:30 PM Location:  CIES Topic/Skill:  Phrasal Verbs (Review & Writing Sentences) (Part 4) Feedback Provided to the Tutee:  We continued with the next page of the phrasal verb handout. This session was more difficult than the last ones since most of the phrasal verbs include the words "go" and "get," so it got confusing at times. We spent more time on this page than usual because of this. Lesson(s) About Tutoring and/or the Tutee You Learned:  Catalina is writing her sentences faster and really starting to be able to use the phrasal verbs comfortably since she is picking up on the patterns the longer we spend on them.
