Interview questions

Interviewing the students that attended the tutorials will allow me
to understand from a student's perspective what helped on the STAAR test and
what didn't. I can then compare the
answers between the students that showed improvement and those that did not.

Conduct
teacher interviews with math teachers that taught the tutorial classes.
