Jamaal Gill TS#12

Ahmed and I met again for the fourth time and we had another talk about politics. He seems to enjoy it a lot and we can cover so many different modes of learning. We can read the article and then write something about it. For instance, I had him give me notes of the first few paragraphs and then write a summary using those notes. He could listen to me as I read it to him paragraph at a time so as to not overwhelm him down with too much translation. Then we could both read the article and then talk about it. This option tends to be the best in my opinion because it keeps him on his toes the whole time. He has to reply to my questions in a timely manner while at the same time making sure to respond with the correct grammar or verb tense. That's something I will say Ahmed is really good at. I have noticed his speaking has gotten better. He is understanding more automatically than having to interpret everything he just heard. I can tell it's a much faster response than before.
