Savannah TP #11

I observed Sushila tutor Matthew and David.  They both seem easily distracted with lots of energy which is understandable.  Sushila handled them well.  I remember in class Jenna, Sushila, and I were talking about how to handle kids.  Jenna explained that giving them a way to reach an enjoyable goal they are more likely to be agreeable.  Praise is also important in reinforcing desirable behavior.  Sushila seemed to be trying to incorporate incentives with candy.  It seemed to get their attention.  They also cared deeply about not being wrong.  It seemed like a productive session.
