Hi. I tutor an adult ELL through Literacy Volunteers of America. I have tried some written work with her, but I always seem to choose work below her level. For instance, she often confuses personal pronouns in speech, so I chose a written activity for personal pronouns. My student completed the activity easily, and with no mistakes. She reads and writes English much better than she speaks English. Most of the time, I just make conversation with her, but I would like some ideas on how to structure the conversation to help her improve her English. Ideally, I would like each lesson to build on the previous lesson to advance her skills. Currently, we discuss any events that are of interest to her, and review grammar and vocabulary as it occurs in the conversation. Any ideas would be appreciated.
