June 18th, from 11 am to 2 pm:

On Tuesday, I had gone to the PACE summer camp. For that day, I did not only helped tutor second graders, but I also tutor children from first grade to seven grade. All of the students had to read a book called "On the run." Everyone had the chance to read aloud in class. After the reading was completed, they had worksheets about their reading to do. The worksheet was divided into categories. One had a word work over root words, prefix, suffix, etc while the second one was more of a Q&A and matching. The last part of their worksheet was "State your opinion" in which the students had to write in full sentence their opinion about Mark, the runner in the story. If the student was in 7th grade, he had to write 7 total sentences and so forth with the other grades. They were given 15 minutes to write down their sentences and after they finished, I had every student read their opinion aloud to the class. Skarlet, though, is a very shy girl and since she is in second-grade I let her not read hers aloud, however; I told her that she will have to read hers aloud next time.

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.
