Nicole Tutoring 14

Veronika came to our session with a paper she had finished writing the night before.  She asked if we could work on editing the paper.  We went through her paper together.  As I read it I would have her read problem sentences.  If a sentence was a run on she would read it and I would stop her when she paused and explained about adding commas to those areas.  She struggles with article usage so we would insert the necessary words.  Editing the paper with Veronika was exhausting.  Thankfully she was there with me so I was able to explain things.  If I were editing the paper from home and returning it to a student I can only imagine how much harder it is.  Some things are hard to explain strictly through writing a note.  With finals week coming up, Veronika and I are going to meet twice next week.
