Award-Winning Private English Tutoring in Lyons, IL

Today the student continued working on reading comprehension with her History essay assignment. She continued to struggle with the assignment, but we reviewed study skills and time management skills for her to apply as she completes the essay outline. In particular, she is going to practice preparing her homework supplies before her daily nap, do one homework assignment before her nap, or not nap at all.

The student continued to work on her essay today. She finished the pre-write and organization (she had come up with a few extra ideas between sessions) and got about halfway through the actual essay. She has some trouble putting thoughts together at times, but she's doing a good job overall. She's certainly a hard-worker and a super trooper!

I helped the student study parts of speech. We worked on simple predicates and predicate adjectives and reviewed the homework assignment. He asked questions about specific questions, and I clarified. Next he completed three online quizzes about predicates to help clarify his understanding.
