Lane TS #4

This tutoring session was on May 15th, and it came as kind of a surprise. My conversation partner, Ki Woong, asked if I could help him over the computer with the abstract for his PhD thesis. That was something I was anxious about and didn't know how to prepare for, but I accepted because I wanted to help to the best of my abilities. Then, this turned out to be one of my most helpful tutoring sessions as it allowed me to realize that I am best at helping with writing and editing aspects of English. I maybe should have known this since I am a Creative-Writing major, but I really got into this tutoring session. Also, I found it a lot easier to notice and correct the mistakes Ki Woong had asked me to correct from our early conversations in the format of a written essay. Even though it was unexpected, I was grateful for the opportunity to be of assistance and also for what this session taught me.
