My Third Tutoring Session

This was our final tutoring session, and I must admit it was a very successful one. It was from the same class in which we first tutored at. I was paired up with a young man who didn't have any of his assignment ready. He wasn't even sure what needed to be done. So luckily we discussed the assignment in class that I was aware of what needed to be done. I asked the professor for the handout and me and the student got to work. He instantly knew which topic on the sheet he wanted to do, "Religious Freedom". He seemed to have prior knowledge on the subject and an opinion already formed, so this helped a lot. I began asking him general questions about why he wanted this topic and how he felt about it. His opinion became the basis for a tentative thesis statement.
