NALC Meeting 2
The second session at NALC in Nashville was with a gentlemen by the pseudonym of John. He was from a country in North Africa and worked very well with understanding concepts. Since he brought homework from him last session, we walked over the spelling and pronunciation of numbers 0-100. For John he mostly focused on pronouncing the terms because he often was quick to understand the concepts behind the terms and the whole lesson planned. He read very well, often only messing up once or twice before fulling understanding the spelling and reading. I was blown away by his progress throughout the session. We read through almost two full pages of stories in the back of his book where longer, more condensed lesson plans were found. For next time, John was going to focus on the list of 50 new terms we worked on ranging from day-to-day topics. Since this was his 5th or 6th session, John was already quick to understand the structure of the lesson plans and how to keep up his pace throughout the session. I was very impressed by his enthusiasm and intelligence.
