Ah-young Kim is a life saver! After mentioning my tutor partner dilemma in class, she sent me contact information of YoonJoo, a visiting scholar at FSU. YoonJoo is a PhD candidate in Seoul National University in South Korea, and a visiting scholar in the political science dept here at FSU. YoonJoo is mostly concerned with her conversational English. She is also wanting help in the area of professional writing. We met this morning via Skype and we attempted to figure out our schedules. She told me a bit about her family and holiday traditions as well as hobbies. We taked about her failed attempt to make her American friends bulgogi, who enjoyed it even though it didn't taste the way she had hoped. :)
We will meet Sunday via Skype and she would like to work on the specific conversation skills involved with talking to her professors. Any ideas on planning this session? I'm going to scour the Internet for resources now. :)
