Topic: Different Tenses and Using Third Person Plural
I met with Andrea and we discussed what she would like to go over and what her overall goals were to get out of our tutoring sessions. We went over the areas she thought are her weakest points, such as distinguishing when to use different tenses and how to use third person plural. She was confused on the past tenses and could not figure them out at first. I decided to divide them out and give her fill in the blank examples of each tense. Then we went over each one and how they pertained to the time they happened and what it meant in the sentences. After going through each one, Andrea had a much better understanding of them.
We then went over her homework, looking at why she did not understand certain aspects of the grammar. We played a little game where I drew pictures of an action occurring and I asked her to write in a certain verb tense. She then wrote in what she thought was the tense and we went over whether it worked out did not work in the sentence. Andrea is a fast learner and picks up grammar usage very well.
