Tutee: "I never understand what we are supposed to
study for the tests. Last time I spent hours reading the textbook and notes,
but I got a 'D.' I Can't do any more than I did for that test."
I would start my approach by explaining to the tutee that
there is more than just studying for hours before a test. Good preparation
takes time and shouldn't be rushed into one big cram session. After I have gone
over this I will go over what all was on the test that the tutee took. After I
have figured out what are the tutee's problem areas I will then began to help
him or her on those areas. Finally, I would wrap up with a couple of questions
from the tutee and then began planning for the next visit.
