TP #1

My tutoring partner's name is Karis and she is from Korea. During our first meeting we introduced ourselves and she told me that she was in America to do research at FSU in her field of hospitality, focusing on food safety in restaurants. I could tell that she felt very strongly about her research because she did the best she could to tell me details about it. She is fairly fluent in her speech and she expressed that she really wants to focus on grammar and her pronunciation of difficult words. She is really nice and eager to improve her English. She said that she doesn't get much practice with speaking English because her co-workers are Korean and she only speaks Korean at home as well. I look forward to helping her to the best of my ability and learning from her as well.
