Lesson(s) about tutoring and/or the tutee you learned:
It was my third tutoring session with Dojun. We covered several American millennial idioms, such as rachet, spilling the tea, dead, I want to kill myself and lit. Both of us saw the heavy influence of the internet and social media among young people in the US. I talked about the party culture with Dojun as well and he was kinda shocked the drinking age here is 21. Then, I shared something I know about the tipping culture in the US. Tipping is a widely practiced social custom in the US but it is not widely practiced in Asian countries. Dojun said tipping in South Korea is not expected. However, if people are dining in some western restaurants, tipping is kinda expected. Next time, I will cover the presidential election system in the US.
