Jordan TS#4

Today I tutored Do-jun for the third time. We went through two videos, with captions, and his understanding was pretty good on both. I tried to start with vocabulary so that the videos would be easier, but I think my method needs work cause it felt like there wasn't enough involvement. That's something to work on. I also tried getting Do-jun to speak with few pauses by having him describe a scenario from one of the videos after making sure that he had a full understanding of it. He did reasonably well, maybe a little slow at times. I think getting his fluency up may be a big help in getting his overall speaking skills up. Once he actually feels confident that he can converse even with some grammar errors, he can stop overthinking everything. It'll also help me identify any actual errors I can correct grammar wise as opposed to long pauses that may have an error or may be a correction for something else.
