He really wants to focus on being able to speak English, so instead of grammar we spend most of the time talking.  We used his book and the lesson they were covering in class to go over conversation scenarios. I would ask him to tell him what certain vocabulary words meant and then to provide me an example with this term. There were several pronunciations that he was having difficulty with for example the difference between the PR sound and the BR sound, so we went over a list on each and compared them. Words that he didn't understand I would provide a picture of the word from google. He was also having some issues with the difference between saying stomach and match because while the spelling is very similar, the pronunciation is very different.
