Friday Tutoring

Our time on Friday seemed to go by very fast. We spent the first hour talking about jobs and exploring the internet. We found that WECAN is a website which many school districts use to post job openings for teacher assistants. It would be worthwhile for you to complete the online application form. Most jobs available on the MATC website require the applicant to be a student enrolled in "for credit" classes. I understand that your ESL classes at MATC are noncredit classes. We also talked about the Voice of America episode on aspirin. We worked on revising, or fixing, your sentences. Nice Job!

Homework for me!
1. More videos! I'm going to become an internet video star! We'll continue with Minimal Pairs and add bath/bathe, athletic/athlete, tear/tear, and breath/breathe.
2. We will add idioms to our lessons and focus on "no longer" for next time.
3. More job info... yes!

Homework for you, if you have time...
1. Listen, read, and write about the Voice of America episode about visiting the doctor's office.
2. Complete the WECAN application form.
3. Review pronunciation videos.
4. Prepare for Side by Side lessons.

Next week...
1. We'll start with Side by Side, page 33.
2. Discuss Voice of America episode.
3. Review Minimal Pairs.
4. Check on job finding progress.

Have a great week!
