I had a helpful dialogue with a student who felt like she was unappreciated by me. I'm putting the e-mail conversation we had in a document called Student_feeling unappreciated.

She misunderstood the marks that she had got in the oral presentation but that came about because of an underlying feeling that I hadn't appreciated her work during the semester. In fact I do notice her and think that I do give her recognition for her hard work and collaboration (as a mature student). So this was important feedback for me to see that she didn't. What started as an angry email from her turned out to be a productive dialogue between us.
