Thomas TS #11

For my 5th tutoring session with Father John, I wanted to change things up. Using a conversation book I borrowed from CIES, I went through the topics with him and tried having conversations with him about it. Aside from some topics being off-limits due to him being a priest, I was also trying my best to explain to him in the most basic English what they mean. Unfortunately, a lot of the topics in the book were not level appropriate for him and it was hard getting a topic for us to talk about, let alone getting an extended conversation from him. Despite the difficulties, we did manage to have some (albeit short) conversations, such as a customer forgetting their phone at Starbucks and getting the landlord to fix the windows at a place. Regardless, I figured I’ll need a book that is foundation level so it’ll easier to communicate.
