Tutoring Session 1
Friday I met with my adult tutee for the first time to assess his skill
level and what he needs help on. Ahmed did a really good job with speaking and reading especially since he self-assessed himself as being maybe 40% comfortable speaking English. I asked him to answer questions I asked by first saying them in sentences, then writing them down. I would then look at the sentences and make notes on whether or not they were correct. He did really well but I noticed that spelling some words were tough to him. I believe this is due to the fact that some words sound the same but are spelled differently. For instance spelled weakness as weaknece. I gave him homework and told him to find 5 Academic words he did not know and to write 5 sentences with them and learn the spelling. Looking forward to meeting with him again.
