Educ 450-Avid and Teaching Reflection
Educ 450-Avid and Teaching Reflection
interaction with different students. Although it was not always focused on tutoring, this was truly
similar to a homeroom experience for the students that I got insight into. I got to know most of
the students on a variety of different levels, although three female students specifically came to
really like me and some of my peers. This was a great experience because we got the chance to
talk to them about different parts of their life, while also referencing internet trends and jokes.
But more than that, it gave me and my peers a chance to juggle being friendly with students and
understanding them more due to age similarity, while also stating ourselves as teachers and
authority figures. Overall, I really did enjoy my AVID experience; but it is important to note that
the majority of the AVID experience is not centered on truly tutoring students, but rather getting
to know them, talking about life, and providing real life advice.
