Creative Tutors of Cypress-Fairbanks

The First Tutoring Session

Hi Johnny!

The first session went great!!! They got a good deal of work done in their 2 hours. Lela said Laury had a bit of trouble focusing, which is typical of Laury. If she feels uncomfortable (like, if she doesn't understand something), she changes the subject. I told Lela she needs to be blunt and forceful with Laury (Lela seems a bit shy or meek) and she said she will. I think it's going to work out great once they warm up. Laury really likes Lela!

Lela will press Laury. She responds to the support and direction of the parents. She’s a sweet young lady, but is very serious about getting the most out of her students. I am glad you are excited about working with her. She has offered support so some of my other Home School Parents and has been an excellent resource and aide to them.

Laury was really excited about how well she did on the previous weeks homework. I am continuing to see her confidence improve with each week.
