BulletHow can you build confidence and pride?
 
 
Maintaining a three-ring binder as a portfolio of your student’s work can be a confidence builder. Students can contribute poetry, stories, song lyrics, and journal entries—anything that represents effort and progress. Contribute your own thoughts by adding margin notes of encouragement or writing your student a letter.

A portfolio of student work is often used to document developing skills, new knowledge, and broadening interests. It can also be a creative representation of the tutoring relationship. Keep the portfolio or journal until the tutoring year is over. Then, you might present it with a special card, or make a gift of a new journal or binder to encourage continued practice.
