Diego TS#16

20 October

This is my last session with Lina! We agreed to keep meeting from time to time whenever she had questions because she's taking her TOEFL soon!

And she passed her driver's exam!

This session we focused on an essay she has to write soon for one of her classes. We spent the session just researching things together. We worked up a basic outline of it while she accumulated resources on the internet and library website. It was a very large topic so we worked together to condense it. I encouraged her to use any vocabulary she learned and try to incorporate them in her writing. She picked out words that were to be used while I supervised. We brainstormed topics but she was in charge of the majority of the speaking. I would ask her questions on what she wants this essay to be and she would answer them and record anything she thought would be useful down.

We may meet again for the editing part of this essay a little later in the future but I'm so excited that she's graduating CIES soon. I have complete faith she's going to ace that TOEFL exam.
