I'll know tomorrow morning if she got the quizzes from Monday corrected and entered.
I've never supervised an employee directly before. I'd really, really hate to fire the first one I've ever had. At this point, I don't even know how I'd do that; it hadn't occurred to me that she wouldn't do what I asked her to do.

If it's the third "talk" you've had with her and she truly is not doing her job (and not just failing to live up to your own personal expectations) and you have documented everything, the next step needs to be more decisive.
But as this is your first responsibility for another worker, you should probably talk to your own supervisor or mentor first, to make sure you cross the t's and dot the i's.
