Simon Kennell TS #5

Today I met with my adult tutee for our fifth session. We discussed what we did over the weekend for about 10 minutes. I decided to start out with a casual discussion to lower his affective filter. We then discussed how his presentation went last Thursday (the previous session was spent reviewing and preparing for his presentation). While discussing the presentation, I made sure to correct any grammar mistakes he made in his speech. I have begun to implement for review and correction from his class work over the past 2 weeks. I have done this to maintain focus strictly on fluency and accuracy. While fluency and accuracy are two areas that we focus on to a high degree, I also try to incorporate pronunciation exercises which I think will help him in his fluency.
