Luther TS with Ahmed #1

            My second tutee is Ahmed, from Saudi Arabia. Ahmed is a group 3 student at CIES, and is in our cultural workshop. He is going into graduate school for political science. He is a good speaker and listener, and is looking to improve his reading and writing abilities in preparation for graduate school. We met at a Starbucks, at around 7:00PM. I do not think the Starbucks is the best location, as it can be loud and Ahmed speaks quietly. For the first session, I wanted to get to know Ahmed better, and learn what he wanted to improve in. Since he wanted to improve his writing abilities, I suggested he bring his CIES essays to tutoring, so we can check for errors. The next session is next week, also at the Starbucks. Ahmed prefers shorter tutoring sessions, so we only met for about 50 minutes.
