In the month of June 2021, the East Cobb Branch of AYLUS held Youth Tutoring activity online, in light of the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. All tutoring activities were one-on-one and either Skype or Zoom was used. In the case of oversea students, WeChat was used for tutoring sessions. One tutor spent a combined 6 hours tutoring Chinese students with the use of WeChat.
The Chinese students were taught English based on their current understanding of the language. A total of three Chinese students were tutored throughout the month of June. The three students consisted of a fourth, fifth, and sixth grader. The fourth grader was taught basic English vocab and grammar, and the tutor would spend most of the session going over their textbooks and reviewing vocab words to make sure they understood what the words meant, how to pronounce them, and how to use them in a sentence. The fifth and sixth graders had important tests coming up, so the tutor would go over their practice tests and study guides to prepare them for their English finals in the next few weeks.
Tutoring these three students was very fun, and the best part was when the students had improved their English over time.
