Kinsey TS #14

 I met with Ruth via Zoom at 5 pm on August 5. 

Topic/Skill: Conversational fluency

Feedback provided to tutee: Since this is the last time Ruth and I would meet before the end of her CIES courses, we decided to have a conversation about our future plans for the rest of the summer. We used present continuous and simple future tenses to talk about our upcoming plans. I helped Ruth decide which tense to use based on her timeline of events. We used present continuous for near future and simple future for plans that would occur toward the end of summer. I asked Ruth about her favorite activities from her CIES classes, and I corrected her conjugation of the simple past tense.

Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned: I learned that Ruth was very excited to give feedback about her CIES courses. I want to set up another meeting with my tutees to get feedback from their experience with me as their tutor. It is important for students to feel like their opinion is important in their educational system.
