In the month of July 2021, the East Cobb Branch of AYLUS held online youth tutoring activities as well as a few in person tutoring activities in light of the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. All online tutoring activities are one-on-one and use Skype, Zoom, Facetime, and similar methods to communicate.
We’ve changed our original tutoring program as libraries have closed due to the pandemic, and meeting students in person at the library is no longer viable. As students need arguably more help during this period of school closures, we are giving kids in our area an opportunity to receive help. The interaction between tutors and students also makes learning more enjoyable.
This time, Faith Huang tutored 2 students, a rising 4th grade and 6th grade student in piano. For the 4th grade student, Faith found some pieces and exercises to practice and helped teach the notes and style of the music to the student. Faith also helped guide the student in how to practice. The in person lesson made the interaction more engaging and interesting for the student and Faith. Faith gave encouraging compliments to the student, and they both really enjoyed the lesson time!
Faith also helped the rising 6th grade student with daily piano practice. Almost every day of the week, Faith and the student would do a facetime call where Faith helped supervise the student’s piano practice, especially since the student will be having a piano competition soon. Faith would give advice if needed and always give words of encouragement. Faith and the 6th grade student have become comfortable with each other through the constant interaction, and the student is really glad to be able to have someone motivate and help with her practice.
