Topic/Skill:Composition 3A
Teacher Presentation:Ryan started out by outlining the plan for class today. This class was dedicated to learning how to write coherent paragraphs and writing an outline for the first draft of their paper. First, the students read about coherent paragraphs and topic sentences in their textbook. The teacher made sure that everyone knew the definitions of important words such as “topic sentence”. Every time a student got an answer correct or gave correct information, the teacher made sure to congratulate them and encourage them. When students got something wrong, he corrected them kindly and gave them positive feedback. As the students wrote their outlines, the teacher looked over their work one by one to give them feedback and make sure they are going in the right direction.
Classroom Management: The teacher had previously assigned groups so students wouldn’t waste time finding one. Whenever students weren’t paying attention, he would stop his lesson and ask them nicely to pay attention.  
Materials: Textbook, projector
Student Participation: Students raised their hands to answer questions. They worked in groups to do work in their textbook. 
Feedback Provided: The teacher went around and read each students’ outline and gave green checks to those who were ready to move on to their first drafts. He provided positive feedback to everyone and gave ideas and examples to those who needed to add more information.

Date/Time: 07/17/19 Location: CIES Lounge Topic discussed: George Lopez and Other American Sitcoms Cultural and/or linguistic topics you and your partner learned: Andres and I decided to watch part of an episode of the George Lopez sitcom during our tutoring session, in which Andres was asked to pick up vocabulary or idioms he's never heard before, in which the list was extensive due to the fact that the show is in native English and uses everyday phrases heard in America. Andres also lacked some cultural knowledge on idioms and phrases that were explained to him, to which he enjoyed learning about. At the end of the session, he was given a list of vocabulary words and phrases to cover on his own.

Date/Time: 07/26/19 Location: CIES Lounge Topic discussed: Final Review Cultural and/or linguistic topics you and your partner learned: Seungjae and I met for our second and final tutoring session, in which I set up a review with example sentences and worksheets to allow him to practice grammar tenses he did not understand. This tutoring session took over an hour, as with many of the questions on the practice he had concerns, to which I helped him clarify with detailed explanations and reasons to grammar. He luckily showed much more understanding at the end of the tutoring session, to which I encouraged him to continue his studies and provided him additional information that would help explain these grammar tenses he struggled with.

Date/Time: 07/17/19 Location: CIES Lounge Topic discussed: Review Cultural and/or linguistic topics you and your partner learned: Marcia came in after I met with Andres and we hosted a review of all of the concerns she previously had during her first two tutoring sessions, both of which were answered and clarified. Marcia was able to successfully show understanding of the material during our review on present perfect and present perfect continuous tenses, as well as prepositions, all of which were her only real concerns. With this, Marcia and I concluded our third and final tutoring session, after which I provided her with additional links in the case she doesn't understand or remember grammar we covered in the future before wishing her the best of luck in her future English studies.
