Tutoring Session #2 - Brad Charlassier

For my second tutoring session I met with Bumsoo Park. We met at the Starbucks on Tennessee Street right next to the Hecht House. I am not big into coffee, and neither is Bumsoo. He said he really enjoys their tea though. He is from Korea and has been living in the States for a year now. He is a doctorate student here at FSU. He is pursuing his doctorate in Sport Psychology. He told me how he originally wanted to be a soccer player but his Father dismissed that idea from his mind entirely. He says he still plays soccer to this day though not as seriously. He likes to play pickup games at the IM fields off of Gaines Street and also plays on a team in a recreational team. He additionally, said that he used to be quite a troublemaker when he was younger. I asked if he had been to the States before coming to FSU and he said he had been to California for a couple weeks. He actually took a 6 month travel vacation and went to London and some other parts of the world before starting college. He said that he would definitely recommend going to London, but the accents were harder to understand for him. He said he wants to focus on his writing and grammar since he has many papers to do for his doctorate.
