Lesson Comments
Sophia is a keen student, always questioning and not taking anything as a given. We decided together, though, that it is more productive to do about 15-20 minutes in-class reading before we proceed to discussing. Otherwise, we are working a lot with the abstract and hypotheticals, lacking solid historical detail to back up our arguments. This was the main shortcoming in her in-class essay last week, so the suggestion was great. Looking forward to more lessons!
