Description of the practice
Building mutual trust in the student-student relationship through a clear work plan and short summaries of the last class at the beginning of the next class. This allows the student to feel confident in the lesson, to not be confused and to have the chance to catch up on any missed work. This practice partly helps to eliminate the student’s apprehension about attending class, as he or she is well informed about what material has been covered, what will be covered, what work is planned, etc.
Key elements of practice
A brief summary at the beginning of the class is key:
What topic was covered in the previous classes, what tasks were to be completed, what work is planned in the near future, etc.
In this way, the student is not “afraid” of attending classes, does not avoid them because he or she knows exactly what has been completed and what is planned, and can focus on his or her own development with the support of the tutor.
