The Session
- What kinds of questions does the tutor ask? Do the questions move the session along in productive ways?
- If a client wants an editing session, how does the tutor respond? Does the session entail line-by-line editing? If so, is line-by-line attention the best strategy for this session?
- Does the conversation ever seem to get stuck or misguided? How did the conversation seem to take that turn?
- What gets written down during the session? By whom?
- Does the tutor talk no more than 50% of the conference? If more, what is the reason?
- What activities occur in the session? Writing? Brainstorming--on paper or in conversation? Talking? Reading out loud? Outlining? Sketching out ideas?
- Who seems to be working harder in the session--the tutor or the client?
- If appropriate, are reference materials, including the writing center and library website, used effectively?
- What does the tutor do if he/she can't answer a client’s question?
