Tutoring #6/7 - Fatima ( 2 hrs )

 Today I had a 2-hour tutoring session with Fatima. We began our session by reviewing the previous lesson that we worked on last week, about medical terminology and common doctor's questions. She was eager and excited to show how well she had learned the new vocab words I had given her to look over; This was exciting for me because it told me that I had done a good job making the lesson fun and interesting! Next, she told me about a presentation that she had coming up about social media usage in our generation. She interviewed me for the project, asking questions like - "how often do you use social media" and "what are your favorite social media platforms?". I thought that it was cool that she recorded my answers on her phone, so she could refer back to my answers. Later, we outlined this presentation together; She was nervous about it because she had to introduce the presentation to her class, so we made a little script that she could practice, in order for her to hit all of her lines. Finally, we sat and talked for a long time about Saudi Arabian culture - it fascinates me just how different it is from American culture, and Fatima felt the same. It was really cool to be able to exchange ideas and perspectives with an Arabic woman my age! I really enjoy these conversations, they're my favorite part about tutoring!
