Isik TS#7 with Mitchell Hudson

Tutoring Section 7 with Mitchell Hudson

Date/Time: April 5, 2016/ 10:50 a.m.-11:50 a.m.

Location: Starbucks near the CIES on the Tennessee Street

Topic/Skill: Grammar/ to write a cover letter 

Feedback provided to tutee: I was planning to apply to a job. I brought a cover letter as a draft. We work on this letter.

Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned:  I worked on using precise language and active voice. I wrote “….I have been engaging my student to raise their awareness global and understand cross-cultural characteristics of societies.” It was a run-on sentence. I changed to “I encourage my students to raise their global awareness and understand intercultural characteristics of societies.”

I changed the conjunction “especially’ to “specifically.” I corrected this sentence; “Especially I have been explaining the connection between technology and society in global and intercultural perspective.” to “Specifically, I have been explaining the connection between technology and society through an intercultural lens.”
