Sophie TS #9- Fahad

My next meeting with Fahad continued on the essay writing track. This time we focused specifically on vocabulary related to transitions, introductions, and conclusions. Some of it was familiar because we had talked about it already in an earlier session, but this time we went over seemingly similar words, and when to maybe use one over the other. I used the essay we had looked at before to give examples, as well as samples of his own writing that Fahad brought with him. I decided to focus specifically on essay-writing vocabulary for this session because I think the more familiar he gets with this kind of vocabulary the easier writing essays will come. Speaking from my own experience learning Spanish, having a list of transition words is one thing, but the more familiar I became with the subtle connotations of each one, the easier it was to write an essay.
