This week Kavira’s
older sister, who usually wrangles her and her siblings, was extremely sick so
instead of launching into a new lesson I decided to do a review of our past few
sessions. I began the session with a few kid’s ESL videos that used a great
deal of songs to help kids memorize the topics. Kavira and I reviewed
descriptive words, colors, shapes, and animals. I would show Kavira a picture
of an animal, have her name the animal, and then describe the animal; for example,
I showed Kavira a picture of a small brown spotted dog and she then told me
about it. When Kavira puts her mind to her lessons she is a rather engaged
student, and certainly knows more than she lets on, but, if anything, my
lessons with Kavira have taught me the great value of patience when teaching
English to younger children and I will only continue to build on my patience
and technique when working with Kavira.
