The Greater Princeton Branch of AYLUS (GPA) students continue their Bilingual Tutoring Program in March. The program allows GPA members to provide reading, writing, speaking, math, and communication to their students across the country.
They had conversations over various video calling platforms, such as Zoom or Facetime, with students about topics they are interested in, such as movies, games, and school. Their bilingual tutoring activities included:
GPA member Catherine Feng organized the program (3/27, 2 hrs).
Elizabeth Jia prepared her lesson and taught her students English through reading comprehension for two hours on Saturday, 3/20.
Ruofei Olivia Mao tutored her student Summer for 2 hours on Saturdays, 3/13 and 3/20, from 1-3 pm, focusing on grammar and reading comprehension.
Anthony F Yang taught his 9 year old student reading and writing for 2 hours on Sunday, 3/21, teaching from 5:30 – 6:15 pm and preparing class materials and lesson plans for 45 minutes.
Zilu Cheng taught her 8 year old student math for 1 hour on Saturday, 3/20.
GPA members Abigail Bao (3/19, 2 hrs; 3/21, 2 hrs) and Angela Bao (3/19, 2 hrs; 3/21, 2 hrs) taught a few students in the subjects of English reading and writing, focusing on story-telling. In the classes, we went over their creative essays while teaching grammars by fixing errors. We also did peer editing and gave advice on how to advance and expand their essays by exploring different ways to describe a person.
