Jackson TP6

Last Friday I met with our classmate Fei for our second meeting. We agreed to meet at Panda Buffet, which is up Thomasville road near Bonefish Grill. The food there looked and smelled incredible which is unfortunate because I had already eaten. We had agreed in our previous meeting to cover past participles, which is something that Fei had expressed some interest in furthering her development with. I printed her out some worksheets as well as the very basic instructions of how past participles work. She seemed to be very receptive to the lesson, but didn't really know when it was appropriate to use the passive voice as opposed to the active voice. After working with her and giving her other examples though she seemed to do a good job. Next, we worked on going over some of her work that she has submitted as part of this course (both blog posts and a lesson plan). While we were going over her blog posts it became apparent that she needed some work on the differences between Gerunds and Infinitives. Since I had already covered this lesson with my other TP, Jasem, I told her I would be more than happy to cover this grammar rule during our next meeting. We agreed to meet on Monday. All in all our meeting went really well. We had some very engaging conversation about her family as well as life in China. Fei has been a really great TP and I look forward to meeting with her more :)
