Location: Zoom 

Topic/Skill: Reduced Forms/Speaking/Listening 

Feedback provided: Dave is not in school and does not have any specific goals other than working on his English skills particularly listening like he mentioned in the beginning of our sessions. Today, I wanted to work on listening and speaking. I went over the concept of reduced forms which Dave had never heard of before but noticed he used two out of the ten that I introduced to him. I showed him a video of reduced forms being used in the real world during the vice presidential debate and went over examples of reduced forms. Then, I played the song "Shake It Off" and "I Gotta Feeling" and asked Dave to listen to the reduced forms in the song and list them. In the end, I read a short story and had him again listen and identify the reduced forms.

Her biggest issue is speaking and having conversations, so today was all conversations and reading. Jeah read a couple short stories and we just had a conversation about them.
