10/18 @Panera
Had an early lunch with one of my tutees at Panera. I've been scrambling getting my tutees to meet with me extra times this week. Anyway we ordered and sat inside. I asked questions about their time learning english at CIES and if their plans for applying their english had changed since earlier this semester. We chatted about future events, including my plans for after graduation and TEFL certification. This was definitely a great review of future tense! My tutee made small errors but nothing severe, and instead of outright correcting them I would just repeat what they said (for my comprehension) but with the correct grammar. I definitely was having flashbacks to class when we were talking about knowing the right grammar innately but not being able to explicitly explain the grammar rules.
