Jennifer- TP 10- 10/6/10

This morning I met with Woon Jee at LeMoyne to go over the new draft of her pre-concept paper for her dissertation. She started right in and began reading her paper out loud; she was even catching all of her mistakes. I looked at her and told her that she was getting so much better and that she wasn’t even going to need me anymore. Did I ever jinx us! She was doing fine and then just started skipping over any of the mistakes she made (most of which were subject verb agreement and awkward phrases). She stopped about half way through and told me that she was kind of nervous about the tests she is retaking this Friday. We talked about that for awhile and I attempted to make her feel a little less anxious about the whole process. We ended up making it through her paper (she seemed to get a bit better at correcting her mistakes after we stopped for a few minutes).
