Date/Time: 5/10 3 to 4PM
Location: La Tiendita
Tutor: Ignacio Diaz
Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned:
Today, Ignacio and I met up at La Tiendita again. It was fun, because the conversation was deeper this time, and I learned more idioms or memes, such as "tryna = trying to", "he/she do = he/she does", "like" and "might as well". It was interesting to see informal English, which is the English most people speak, and formal English, which is the English that I learned, can be this huge different. It reminded me that "it is raining cats and dogs" is what I learned from textbook. Native speakers don't use this expression that much in daily conversations even though they know what it means. Overall, I look forward the next tutoring with Ignacio so that I can learn more about idioms, because they are the root of American English culture.
