Amberly TS #3

 Zhou and I met at The Sweet Shop on June 28 at 4pm-5pm. I recommended Zhou some podcasts and music to listen to. I also recommended that he should watch some American sitcoms without the subtitles. I introduced him to NPR podcasts as well as The Daily by The New York Times, which both have clear and somewhat less clear pronunciation. We did another debate style activity. I took notes of grammatical errors and tried to solidify his verb tenses again. I asked Zhou what he did in class. He was introduced to AAVE (African American Vernacular English) and I expanded his knowledge of this by showing some clips of AAVE and explaining how it relates to culture.
