Listening
Today's listening exercise was a science article about Spiders that Don't Make Webs. About half of all known
spider species do not make webs but everybody in the game has fangs, venom, and spinnerets. The article had some good vocabulary and was unlikely to be selected for a lesson by the other 2 tutors. On the cultural side of this, I explained how American women tended to conform to the absurd stereotype of female arachnophobia more often than not. Korean women, in his experience, did not share the same unrealistic fear. The lesson was conducted in our normal manner - read, introduce & discuss vocabulary, read again, quiz for comprehension.
