Seaborn: TS #5-6

Mengmeng and I met for our 5th and 6th tutoring sessions, respectively, on Friday, 1/24, from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. (with a short break at the halfway point).

Mengmeng mentioned in our previous session that she wanted to develop her presentation skills. So, we went over useful transition words for beginning a presentation, working through the body of a presentation, and ending a presentation.

We also developed her listening skills by watching clips from popular American films and then going over the new vocabulary within them. Finally, I helped Mengmeng practice her speaking skills by choosing a topic at random and having her speak about it as quickly as she could, with as few "uh's," and "umm's" as possible between thoughts.
