In my fourth session with Eric, we read his second draft
line by line. He corrected many mistakes
and I think he really benefitted from reading it out loud. I have found that reading a paper out loud
really makes many mistakes more glaring.
Although his English was advanced from Rafael, we found many of the same
type of mistakes. As we went through, he
pointed out mistakes and I discussed the options with him on how to make the
sentences more clear, concise and proper.
As we went on, he was able to make more and more of the suggestions on
his own and choose a fitting result.
After we finished with the first run-through, we did a second
run-through and a third. By the time we
finished, he was well on the way to a polished paper and we agreed that he
would do another run-through on his own and we would go over it and work on the
finished paper the next evening.
