I met another one of my tutoring partners last week. His name is Abdullah and he is the youngest of all my students, even though he looks like the oldest. He is 19 years old and he is from Saudi Arabia. He told me that he was in Grammar Level 3 and Listening Level 2. He is extremely smart and you can definitely tell that his "gears are cranking" when you look at him when he is doing school work. He told me that he is studying to become a Chemical Engineer. When he was 14 years old, he had the entire Periodic Table of Elements completely memorized!! When he gets older, he wants to eventually be the CEO of his own Engineering firm. In Saudi Arabia, he started training to become a Body Builder, but he had to stop training because he dislocated his shoulder. I told him that I was starting to train for body building as well. I told him I also started competing in Olympic lifting. He told me that he hates vegetables, which is ironic because to become a body builder, you have to learn to love your greens!

I think I worked with him in my listening class today! It was listening level 2 and the teacher used that name! He was very nice to work with. :)
