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.
