What Does a Live Session Look Like?
Live sessions for this preceptorial will meet once a week for approximately forty-five minutes. Students will come to the session having already completed any assigned homework from the previous class. Class will begin with a review of last week’s content and homework. The instructor will then introduce any new concepts, allowing time for student questions. The instructor will then lead the students in working together on translation.
