On the final night of working on Eric’s paper, we went over
it with a fine tooth comb. We made sure
his transitions were solid and that his tenses all matched and his spelling was
perfect. Again, we did a couple of
read-throughs aloud. By the time we
finished, he felt comfortable that the paper was something he wanted to submit. The final step was to go through the
bibliography and make sure that each expert, quote and fact was from a listed
source. It took a while, but I am a real
stickler for this and the bibliography covered everything by the time we
finished and there were no unused sources listed. After we finished, we discussed what we could
cover in the next session and decided that he was excited and interested in a
session devoted to colloquialisms and idioms.
He works at the Doubletree hotel as well as going to college and felt
that having a better understanding of idioms would be of great benefit.
