Today I tutored Ahmed and Mohammed. I began by asking them how their three day weekends were. Mohammed said that he made traditional Saudi Arabian food in his apartment for the first time. He said it wasn't very good and I thought that was funny. Ahmed said that he didn't do anything special for the three day weekend and it was boring. We watched the action TV show at Mohammed's request. I chose the show Daredevil. The vocabulary was pretty advanced at parts but both of them were able to figure out the plot. The show contained a lot of phrases that are uniquely American such as "$1000 a head" and "dead in the water." I taught them the meanings of these phrases. I was surprised to learn that they didn't know phrase "You're hired." I explained it. I was also glad to see that Mohammad has a notebook where he takes down new vocabulary words and he used it a couple time during our session. He seems to have improved from our last session.
