= Welcome Summer 2012 Tutors! = = Mary & Jean Borg Center for Reading & Literacy = = = Welcome tutors! You are each on your way to providing a valuable community resource through the tutoring program at Illinois State University. Through this one-on-one tutoring experience, you will create positive literacy experiences for a student who is struggling with an aspect(s) of reading. The tutoring will also be a learning experience for //you// in your process of becoming a teacher. You will have an opportunity to apply the reading strategies you have been learning, in an authentic teaching situation. Since this is a learning experience for everyone, we have designed this wikispace as a discussion board for our learning. If you have a question, a concern, a successful lesson or quality resource to share, you can post it on the wiki discussion board. This will give us the opportunity to learn from and help each other along they way!

Click on the button to the right of the Edit button on this page at the top to access the weekly discussions. Use these spaces to reflect on your daily lessons, share ideas, pose questions about literacy and teaching and think about how you can continue to evolve as a tutor.
 * Reflective and Productive Discussion**

See the links and files below for helpful resources as you plan. Saving a tutoring log may be helpful as you remember strategies you employed and can show to future employers.
