On 3/7/2021, seven members of the Syosset AYLUS (Leo Cheng, John Thach, Ryan Leung, Alan Huang, Emily Lin, Jasmine Chen, and Greene Xue) taught a ninety-minute English class to multiple newly immigrated high school students with varying degrees of proficiency in English.
In class, there were 3 classes with 3 levels; Intro (Ryan and Greene), Intermediate (Alan, Leo and Emily), and Advanced (John and Jasmine).
Reading tutors Emily Lin, Leo Cheng, and Alan Huang finished Unit 6: Sure! I’ll do it and Progress check 5 – 6. Gerunds were also introduced and explained to the students. A Blooket was then presented to further deepen the understanding of gerunds to the students.
Student tutors Jasmine Chen and John Thach taught the advanced class of AYLUS Syosset’s 29th online ESL Tutoring class. In this class, the tutors continued working out of the new Interchange ESL textbook. Students completed chapter 6 of the textbook, which focused on consumer issues and technology. Then, students did a combination of vocabulary, storytelling and speaking exercises.
Ryan and Greene went over the various locations found in a neighborhood(music store, grocery store, bakery, etc). They also went over when to use “there is vs there are”(is there music, are there any pieces of cake?). The class also reviewed prepositions and learned when to use how many vs how much(how many bees are there, how much water is in the basement?).
The following 7 students volunteered in today’s tutoring program: John Thach(1.5 hours), Leo Cheng (1.5 hours), Alan Huang(1.5 hours), Ryan Leung (1.5 hours) Jasmine Chen(1.5 hours), Emily Lin(1.5 hours), and Greene Xue(1.5 hours).
