first day of tutoring eng 101 students

                                                 experience of first day tutoring

          Today was my first day of tutoring eng 101 student. I introduce my self to them. I was able to tutor two student at a time. I was feeling so  nervous about it. There assignment was about biculturalism. They needed to use resource in order to write the paper, So i told them about the library data base that will be very helpful for there paper. On the other hand the two student were talking to much to each other and I didn't know what to do or say to them because it was my first day working with them. They had some good ideas about biculturalism  and i told them to include all the ideas they had in there paper. It better to use outside information as well. I didn't talk much because i didn't know what to say. Most of the time I was just listening to there conversation about different topics. I was feeling so un comfortable that I forgot to ask there names. They told me they are not smart and intelligent student but by the conversation they were havingI figured that they are intelligent and creative students. But i didn't knew much about there topic so i couldn't help them much. I told them where they can find useful information. The two student had there outline basically it was free writing. They wrote down ideas they had about biculturalism. It was really quiet interesting ideas that they brain storm of free writing. They need to think about a good thesis.I suggest them to use these ideas and key words in there paper to look strong enough. I strongly suggest them to have strong argument with example and evidence to support there claim. The students that i was working with were very active and hyper. They just couldn't stop talking which kind of annoyed me in some way. well it was that bad tutoring and sort of helping the eng. 101 student. I even learned something from the student. One thing that a student say that everyone is learning. Thats true we are still learning. Experiencing As a tutor we are still learning as much as we can. None can ever stop of learning new stuff everyday.  I am glad i am having experiencing tutor student and also observing the writing center as well. Having new experience  helps us having more knowledge about something.
