TS#7-9 Rachel McDonnell

Ahmad and I met at The Wilbury, which is a bar and restaurant. I was initially worried about us meeting there, but Ahmad has proven to be incredibly open minded and seemed to like it. Since he is an advanced level student and this method with Dojun was so fun, I brought a collection of short stories by George Saunders and followed through with the same method. It was really fun and honestly opened discussions that would deviate from the tutoring, but I assumed you would be ok with this since it works on speaking and listening skills as well as builds scheme. Saunders is one of my favorite authors so it was especially fun for me and his writing is filled with low frequency vocabulary so it was beneficial for Ahmad. I enjoyed how casual the tutoring session was since we had just spent so much time together before in rather social settings. I drank a beer at the end and of course open minded Ahmad had no concerns.
