       She sounds overwhelmed.
       Meet her where she is.  There's time. No rush.

       Interestingly, I ran into the reading coordinator yesterday:
       Kid did the same shut down thing with her during their last
       session.
       When Kid whined she didnt feel like reading, Coordinator said,
       Okay, then I'll just have to take you back to your regular
       classroom now.
       That snapped Kid right out of her mood and she got to work and
       did well.
       So I'll have to remember that one for next time.

       Usually just saying that will work, but I took a student back to
       his class once when it didn't. He didn't want to read, write or
       listen, which is pretty much everything we do.  He did much
       better the next few sessions.  Generally, the students I've
       tutored really like the one-on-one time with an adult and don't
       want to go back to the classroom early.

       "students I've tutored really like the one-on-one time with an
       adult"
       That's what Coordinator says too.
       The program only runs til late May, so I hope I can get some
       quality time with Kid before then.  She;ll be in 2nd grade next
       yr and I want her to get as much extra help/attention now while
       its available...
