Jackson TS# 15

 On Friday, August 13, at 3:00pm, I had my final tutoring session with Charles on zoom. We spent the first part talking about our friend Lane, who was on his way to Tallahassee to stay with me for a night, then went on to discuss Charles' potential return to the states to see the two of us. After that round of catching up, we moved onto the substance of the lesson, which was a review of the past continuous tense and the present perfect tense, topics I have also been working on with Masoud. Charles is good at speaking, but has not used the language regularly in quite a while and I noticed that he has had trouble with the difference between them in our past lessons. I came up with descriptions, examples, and exercises for the two tenses and we spent more than an hour on them. Overall, he was really grateful for the lesson and felt much better about it afterwards.

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.
