Mengmeng and I had two, one-hour sessions back-to-back on Friday, 1/17, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m.
First, we went through all the questions for our tutees provided by our instructor in a handout. We discussed where Mengmeng was from, what her favorite subject to study in English was, what she struggled with the most, and what her language-learning goals were for the future (among other things).
I had Mengmeng take several evaluative ESL quizzes I found online (one which tested grammar, one which tested vocabulary, and one which tested reading comprehension). Mengmeng's reading skills are quite high, and she has a great grasp on grammar as well. She has the most room for growth when it comes to her speaking skills.
After finishing the questions and quizzes, we spent the rest of our lesson time discussing questions she had about the English language, and I even helped her write-out directions to use when speaking with her Uber driver in the future.
Mengmeng is a friendly, hard-working young woman, and I look forward to all our future tutoring sessions.
