TS #8

After a short break, I met for a second hour with my regular Tutee.  We began by discussing a good strategy for taking the IELTS reading comprehension.   I pulled up a practice problem.  She began by quickly skimming the questions.  She next skimmed  the first sentence of each paragraph of the essay.  She was about 2 minutes into the 20 minute problem.  Then she read the problem essay more carefully and answered the questions with about 70% accuracy. We repeated the exercise on another problems after discussing some vocabulary.
