My first tutoring session with my
tutee, Mao Mao, was initially spent asking diagnostic questions to assess his English
learning needs. He is very committed to learning English and showed enthusiasm
for being a language learner. After completing the assessment, I found him to
have a great basic grammar foundation, but he needs work when it comes to his
speaking and writing skills. He made some speaking errors, and I felt his difficulties
were due in great part to a lack of vocabulary. After the assessment, I helped
him with his upcoming presentation assignment. I guided him in creating an
outline for his presentation and allowed him to practice what he planned to say
to his classmates. I made sure to find out what his personal interests are,
which I feel will assist me when creating engaging activities for future
sessions.
