Summary Comments: Phuong has been tutoring small groups of students, mostly two or three at a time, within the writing workshops. His role is to help break down writing activities in a way that makes sense to his students, and assist them in achieving them in the way that works best for them. Phuong is required to use a huge range of strategies to help students work through disengagement, anxiety, low literaey and distraction. Phuong has been doing a superb job. had the opportunity to do an official evaluation with him last week, and he was using lots of great strategies to great effect. I actually had difficulty in finding an improvement area during the hour T watched him. One of the most encouraging things I saw was his skill in self-correcting when an approach wasn't working so well, he was usually able to spot this quickly and try a different approach.
