Sadhana G

I will go through each rubric one at a time: "I do Strategy" I love the way that you use the I do strategy. For example, explaining the percent formulas and mean, median, mode, etc. You explained it images and some practice questions. I would recommend asking more frequently if the learners are following along. "We do" strategy I love the way you used this strategy. Especially for the second percent problem, where you let Yasvi lead the problem! She explained the steps and processes that she did to solve very clearly. Builds on "We do" strategy I love the way that after you let Yasvi solve the problem, you built upon that. When the learners didn't understand some parts, you explained them clearer and you really build on all mistakes made! Nice job in all parts of the rubric!

Sadhana provided plentiful opportunities for learners to engage. With her practice problems offering chances for students to check their understanding and provide solutions, she gave structured time for this. However, many students were not participant. So, rather than jumping in with a solution, perhaps smaller questions that may be more digestible would be less daunting. It would also help Sadhana get a greater grasp of her learners' understanding so she knows whether or not to move on. When learners did volunteer to answer, she affirmed when learners were on the right track and was ready to answer their questions, which was effective.

Sadhana was clearly well versed in the material for the SAT math session she was hosting! Right off the bat, we can see that Sadhana was well-prepared and had put together some lesson plans ahead of time based on her slides presentation. She had diagrams which she actively used to teach concepts and formulae, for instance the percentage decrease formula. She then followed up with example problems to put these concepts into practice and demonstrate applications, like with the problem about the price of the stock. The visuals were well thought out, and Sadhana volunteered to provide additional practice problems to the learners after the session, demonstrating her commitment to her tutees. Her second lesson on mean, median, mode, and range was well laid out in a flowchart. The color coding of yellow, green, blue, and red, respectively, helped create a visual connection for the learners. Her drawings of examples that may appear in the SAT –such as a box plot – were effective applications. While there were a couple of questions from learners that Sadhana could not answer completely, for instance about the shortcuts on the stock question, she effectively answered with the knowledge she had, and offered to look more into this for the learner.

The tutor was extremely nice and took time to translate for a non-English speaker.
