Well, today I am inputting my final CP blog!! I met with my Turkish 'friend' today. She is doing great, and her English is improving. I think her listening skills have gotten better. The only thing that hasn't changed is that she is still using 'later' to substitute for 'in'....for example, 'my husband, 2 years later will get his citizenship,' instead of saying 'in 2 years, my husband will gain his citizenship'...so, I had to correct her and explain that. I think I did right by stopping and explaining it. She didn't understand why 'later,' didn't really mean what she thought....it just didn't sound right.
I am pleased to say that I AM CONTINUING my TEFL efforts!!! I'm so glad I stuck with it. I feel useful to someone, and that's nice to know!!!
:0) She also considers me a FRIEND, which is really nice, too.
Over and out. --Rawan.
