January 27th
I met with my tutee, Zixiang for the first time. We introduced ourselves and I asked him a few questions about him and why he's learning English. He said he's in CIES because he got in FSU's graduate program in mathematics and he needed to develop better English skills. He also told me that he needed more help in speaking and listening, and would like if we can have more conversations to help him become more comfortable speaking. He also told me about a summary assignment he did but didn't understand why he didn't a better grade on. I had him pull it up and went over it went him. We went over how to find the main ideas and how to write the summary in his own words cause sometimes he doesn't understand it and just copies the sentence.
