Schooled

I had my first session with my tutor today. She remains cute.

I'm not sure how much she's going to help me, though. Oh, she knows her Japanese pretty well and it's good that I'm forced to think about Japanese for some extra time while she's here, but there's a difference between people and paper. People get a funny look on their faces when you do something wrong and you know right away that you need to correct yourself. Paper doesn't do that.

Anyway, she's coming back on Wednesday to help me go over flashcards and pitch me some sentences to translate. We'll see how well it works when I take my quiz on Thursday.

Speaking of, my grade in class as of today is a 1.3, or 68.5%. A poor grade won't negatively affect my GPA, but I think I'm supposed to have something like a 2.2 in order to go on to third year Japanese. In other words, it would be a good thing if I could get my grade up by a bit in these next three weeks.

I'm assuming you learn best by writing down.

Call it a hunch.

Jason:

This is, in fact, true. I remember most everything I write down. Which I supposed doesn't help me work with a tutor much...
