Myrick, J. TP#2

For our second meeting, we decided to come up with a plan to help Ali with his writing. I researched some prompts that could be shown on the TOEFL and we did an actual practice writing assessment. I gave him a prompt and 30 minutes to complete the essay. After he finished, he reviewed it and told me some of the things he felt he did wrong. I helped him to understand what his thoughts were and I critiqued his work as well. Again, I noticed that he was having problems with organization. So we went over how to utilize the first five minutes for his outline and we discussed how to decipher from the main points and supporting details. Before we left for the day, I gave him another prompt to work on overnight and we would review at our next meeting.
