I met with Yujeong at Dunkin Donuts, and we discussed her homework. She had a show and tell presentation to complete, and was not sure about what to do it on. She did not bring many valuables from Korea, so we brainstormed for a little while. She decided to do it on a purse she had bought on Black Friday, so I helped her plan out her presentation. She was unclear of the distinction between Black Friday and Thanksgiving so we talked about that a little bit. I helped her elaborate on Why she specifically chose this purse. She was having trouble putting it into words.
After that, Yujeong wanted to talk to me about her friendship problems. I was there as a considerate listener, but it also worked out well. She had been saying that she really wants to work on her speaking, because she is not as fluent as she would like to be. So, letting her open up to me about her friendship problems was the perfect vehicle for her to get some quality time in speaking English.
