Keunhwa TS#4


Date/Time: Sep. 30/ 05:35~06:40

Location: Book-a-million

Topic/Skill: Comparing among women’s lives in Korean, French, and the U.S/ Writing and speaking

Feedback provided to tutor, Neila: I showed her my three tutoring session writings in the Blogger and she corrected my errors.  She didn’t do it instantly, and gave me time to think about correct my lapses by myself. Her understanding attitude made me comfortable. She explained the other meaning of ‘locate’. Then, we moved on to Ben Franklin practice. She read the dialogs and I marked stressed words in sentences.  After that, I read them aloud.

Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutor you learned: I learned the usages of tell and say, which are that tell sounds indirectly, whereas say sounds more direct.  When a person expresses their thoughts or feelings, its better to use tell instead of say.  However, when expressing their demands, requests, it would be superior to use say.  The word, Locate may mean seek or contact on the website.  It makes sense, because every website has its own address like real places on the map.  The phrase, what have you been has four words, but it should sound like one word.  I have to practice it, and I will use it when I say hello to my friends.
