blog #15 Wrting Center Experience

On the day of October 6, 2009 I had an appointment in the Writing Center at 10:45 with a girl named Jen. I have never had Jen as my writing center tutor so I was very anxious on how she was different form my last writing center tutor. When Jen and I had first sat down she had me pull up my video blog on YouTube. The name of my video blog at the time was Fred Brito: The Great Pretender. We has watched the video blog minute by minute. The way that I seemed to think Jen is different from my last Writing Center tutor was she was very actually helpful on completing her task of helping me. I believe that is a good thing when you have a great tutor. Not only because you get stuff done but you learn a lot from the person that maybe you did not have already known or just something they had taught you over again. Jen helped me actually separate my essay into different sections and different paragraphs. In those sections she helped me figure out what was going to be in them and what I really should not put. What also helped a lot with Jen being my Writing Center tutor was that when I would write little notes and stuff on my paper she would read it over me and tell me if it was important enough to say and where to put it. I think this was my best tutor conference I have had so far. Even though I have only had two. One thing I wish would have gone different was that I wanted to have a little more time because I had a few more questions that I would have liked to ask her but did not. I believe next time I sign up for a Writing Center tutor I will try and get Jen as my tutor because she was great. Another thing that I will try to do is when I am signing in for an appointment or scheduling and appointment with the Writing Center I could possibly try to schedule two appointments in a row if that is at all possible. If I am not able to do that than I will just need to get in the Writing Center as soon as possible the very first time my teacher tells us and schedule two appointments at different times and different dates to have double tutoring sessions before the dead line of the essay is due.
