modeling

Question

Anyone find an answer to the question about how to translate Modeling? As in education, "adults provide modeling to students to learn to read more fluently".
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Answer 1

Maureen, you posted this thread twice. Please delete the other one.

I have to say that "modeling" sounds odd here to me. I would express this as follows.

Adults serve as models to students, helping them learn to read more fluently.
Los adultos sirven como modelos para los estudiantes, ayudándoles a leer con más fluidez.

Answer 2

It's "education speak," James, which often doesn't sound quite right in normal English. However, I like your translation into Spanish.
