I took took on a new student through the Literacy Volunteers program at the Leon County Public Library. His name is Tianfeng and he is Chinese. He is working on his doctoral program at FSU and would like to teach. Although he and his family have been living here for a few years, he feels his English needs to improve before he can teach. He wants to focus on his pronunciation.
I found 2 articles from Breaking News English, one more advanced than the other. I had him slowly read the articles and corrected him sentence by sentence. This gave me some ideas of what he still needs to work on.
