Hi again well I been looking for some articles that can help me do my reaserch on the topic I chose, first I read an article called WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES? TUTOR INTERACTIONS WITH FIRST- AND- SECOND LANGUAGE WRITERS. this article talks about how tutors behave and what stategies they use when tutoring Non-native speakers (NNSs) and native speakers (NSs), and the anxiety the tutor present as a result of a wrong tutoring strategy. something that called my atention in this article was that it said that for NNSs the talk is the most important part of the session and that is very easy to the tutor to turn the writing session into a language session with out even asking the writer to. As a conclusion it says that writing centers need to do more research on diferent kinds of tutorials to fit more writers needs.
Other articles I read were:
TUTORING AND REVISION SECOND LANGUAGE WRITERS IN THE WRITING CENTER.
THE WRITING CENTER AND SECOND LANGUAGE WRITERS.
ESL WRITERS A GUIDE FOR A WRITING CENTER TUTOR.
FACING ESL WRITERS IN THE WRITING CENTER.
ESL TUTORING IN THE WRITING CENTER
I´m going to continue searching for more articles so I can have as many ideas for my reaserch as possible and then I can do a good paper!
