I then focus on collaborating with students to identify goals for the assignment they're working on, designing a writing plan that works with their learning style. In any follow-up tutoring sessions scheduled, we can review those goals and writing plan with the intention of discovering what worked and what did not work so that we can adjust for future assignments as needed.
