We practiced translating some sentences using all the sentence patterns we have learned previously. And Jeff did a great job. No more long pauses to think of what words should he say next. On to the next challenge! :)

We did mostly review in this class and continued learning pseudo-verbs, and I also introduced few words. Answers and sentences were smoother, and lesser corrections. I'm excited about Jeff's progress! And I'm excited to start a new lesson with a new set of verbs. :)

In this class, we reviewed how to give quick comments in Tagalog, which was easy-peasy for Jeff. Then, we started learning "Anong gusto mong gawin/inomin/lutuin/panoorin?" and different ways to answer such question. Although Jeff told me he doesn't like using the "ng" pronouns because it confuses him, but I can see he's starting to get the hang of it after a couple of role plays.

I'm really happy with Jeff's performance in class. He remembered most of the things we discussed from the last two classes, even if the last class was more than two weeks ago! He's very willing to do role plays again and again, and I believe it's the main reason he could retrieve and use those expressions easily. I'm also glad that he shared his goal and suggested things on how I can help him achieve it. It's really helpful. It helps me think of other ways to teach the language.
