The first chapter offers a rationale for one-to-one teaching and discusses the role of the conference in teaching writing, what conference talk accomplishes, and the benefits of one-to-one teaching. The second chapter describes the shapes and purposes of the conference--including its goals, tasks, elements, formats, and scheduling--and the roles of the teacher. The third chapter discusses conference activities such as conversation, directive versus nondirective approaches, uses of language and other forms of communication, and conference problems. The fourth chapter offers a diagnosis for teaching one-to-one that isolates the teacher, student, and written product as separate elements. The fifth chapter proposes some strategies for teaching one-to-one, especially strategies for working on rhetorical and composing skills. A discussion on whether grammar can be taught is followed by a consideration of general and specific strategies for grammatical correctness. (Some practice activities for tutor-training classes and some excerpts from conferences are appended.)

Designed to meet the needs of those who lack formal pedagogical training in composition, The Practical Tutor is an invaluable tool for writers at various levels in both formal and informal educational settings. The book alerts its readers to issues that frequently arise in the writing process, explores typical writing problems and their causes, summarizes recent research and thinking in the field of composition, and suggests strategies for helping writers overcome their difficulties. By analyzing samples of writers' compositions, and by including sample dialogues between tutors and writers, the book suggests, in the most practical terms, how to formulate questions that will spur writers to make their own corrections, and how to help them write critically and independently. Appropriate as both a course text in the training of peer tutors, or as a reference book for home or office, The Practical Tutor includes exercises and bibliographies for getting acquainted with writers, helping them generate ideas, shape essays, master basic writing mechanics, and even use computers to improve their work.", "series": "", "seriesNumber": "", "volume": "", "numberOfVolumes": "", "edition": "", "date": "1987", "publisher": "Oxford UP", "place": "New York", "originalDate": "", "originalPublisher": "", "originalPlace": "", "format": "", "numPages": "", "ISBN": "9780195038651", "DOI": "", "citationKey": "", "url": "", "accessDate": "", "ISSN": "", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "", "language": "", "libraryCatalog": "", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2016-06-09T19:24:15Z", "dateModified": "2016-06-09T23:05:49Z" } } ]
