CarolinaTS#1

My first tutoring session went really well. I tutored DJ from South Korea, who is an adult in need of speaking and listening help via Skype. Coordinating the session was interesting due to the 13 hour time difference but we found a time that worked for both of us. Our first meeting was great, we got to know each other and I kept accessing his needs. I found that he was a very good English speaker, but he was a little shy and letting him speak about his studies, jobs, and other passions brought down his filter. He opened up to me and I learned a lot from our conversation. We will meet every week and I will guide the conversation to different topics, in order to cover different vocabulary words and see where he struggles the most.
