Teacher Presentation:Teacher gave good instructions about the tasks the class was doing today. She provided worksheets for everyone. She went over the syllabus with the class and explained what is expected from them in this course. The students had to read an article in class. She read the article out loud for them and whenever she came across a complicated phrase or word, she would pause and ask class if they knew what it was; if they didn’t she explained it to them. She used Merriam-Webster Learner’s Dictionary to help students define words.
Classroom Management:When the students would stop listening and talk or stop paying attention, she would calmly say “my dear students,” and that got their attention. 
Materials: Computer lab (computer and Canvas), worksheet about whales, articles about whales, Merriam-Webster Learner’s Dictionary (online).
Student Participation: Students logged onto the computers at the computer lab and worked on reading modules related to the article the teacher read.
Feedback Provided: The teacher talked to students one on one about errors they made. She explained them thoroughly and answered any of the students’ questions. She also defined words students did not know.

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.
