Donald Schon - Reflection-on-action
Personally, it was fulfilling to tutor students and to be of help to them in their studies. Every fortnight, as mentioned by the teachers at the student care center, the students are excited to see us.
It was very fulfilling to tutor the students especially when students who were introverted on our first meeting start opening up to me. For instance, there was a student who had issues completing his homework, however, he was too shy to ask me. I approached him and asked if he needed help. After a few months, he warmed up to me and started consulting me whenever he faced issues completing his homework. It was very assuring and comforting as students felt I was reliable to resolve their queries regarding their school work.
The students are also very appreciative and grateful to us tutoring them. On some occasions, the students did mentioned to me that they prefer me to tutor them as my explanations are easier to understand. It was very heart warming and motivating to receive such comments from the students.
