We bagan the meeting by going throught the Skiff that day and identifying words which were unfamiliar to him and defining them. At the end of this exercise, he was pleased with himself because he was familiar with most of the words in the article.
After this, I dictated a passage from my laptop for him to copy down, in order to help him develop his writing skill as well as develop his vocabulary. We went through sentence-by-sentence, correcting his spelling errors.
We parted ways an hour later. I appreciate Mr. Ramirez's willingness to learn and his humility in accepting correction, considering the fact that I am significantly younger than him.
