Setting Goals

.....

Helping your student set long and short term goals is one of the most rewarding parts of being a tutor. Using the Monthly Tutoring Report which you can find on our website at www.adultliteracyleague.org you can interview your student about things he or she would like to be able to do, or do better;  everything from reading to children to filling out forms. If your student has a long term goal such as getting the GED or entering technical training or post-secondary education it can seem a long and difficult way off in the future. By reviewing the tutor report check boxes with your student both of you will discover that there has been progress in many areas - and all progress is forward movement towards that long-term goal!
