Introduce yourself – one strategy %5w’s, 1 H
Transition to thesis:
My pedagogical philosophy focuses on student-centered tutoring, and specifically the strategy of talk and writing. I also emphasize the role of writer’s block in composition, and how the recursive stage process model could work to break through – including the use of free writing, clustering, conversation, and returning to the text for ideas. Overall, I believe these writing tutoring strategies support my conviction that education must do more than provide grades, facts, and certificates for employment; I believe that in light of the world’s pressing problems, education must also encourage students to think for themselves and to empower themselves to shape reality. I will demonstrate my ideas here using course texts such as _ and ___, and also explain them through my own experiences tutoring students here at LaGuardia.

As I mentioned, my pedagogical philosophy focuses on student-centered tutoring, and specifically the strategy of talk and writing. I developed this in practice during my live tutoring sessions with Prof H’s class of 101 students. I encountered a student named Goggile who was having problems developing his thesis on deportation. (DETAILS: tutoring). I decided to use my talk and writing strategy, including the use of asking questions (DETIALS: tutoring). This was effective. As Mcandrew and Reigstad write, “xjxjkdkdfdkjfdfd” (fljdfd). To me, I found that dkfjdkjfdkfdk. The work I did with Goggile was meaningful in the context of my career goals because dfldklfdd. To me, the work we did together is important because dlkjdflkdlfd. As friere writes, “dfljdfjkdflkjd” (dfdd). Although wouldn’t say lkjdflkdfjkd , which Friere does, I would say that dfljkdfkdfjdlkfd because dfdljkdfdklfd.

Conclusion – extended philosophy – career reflection – merging of personal goals with optimism about your education – why why why why why

  1. Is it appropriate to use notes from a lecture in Developmental Psych as a source, and then to cite the lecture as the source, or do I need to find another source confirming what our professor discussed and cite that?

    1. And if we need to cite an outside source, is it okay to use the text for the class? Or do we need a scholarly article, or something like that?

  2. Yes - cite the lecture.

    Outside sources are fine, as you ask. Text for class fine. Go with the easiest options for yourself.
