Helping the Student
Although it was difficult, I stayed with my conventional way of tutoring for these mistakes. We slowly worked through her paper line by line pausing at each mistake and I would let her try and figure out the proper form of the verb to use. An example of the conversation we had back and forth was as follows:
Me (reading out loud): The study find evidence that cones was effected...Lets stop there and go back. The study find is not correct.
Student: I see, would it be finded?
Me: Not exactly, lets look up the verb on the computer lesson and see what it should be.
Student: She types in the verb find and then says, "it should be found."
Me: That's correct, go ahead and change your paper.
Personal Evaluation
I think that my instruction was very useful for the student. Within an hour she had a much firmer grasp of grammar and was able to catch changes before I pointed them out. The greatest evidence was that by the end of the lesson she no longer needed to look up verbs...
The reason I say that is that she made it very clear at the beginning of the session that she did not understand the concept of tenses at all and was surprised when she received such low marks on her paper.
Both me and the student were very happy with the outcome of the tutoring session. She was so happy, in fact, that she started requesting me for further editing sessions. By the end of her sessions she had absolutely no mistakes in her entire paper. I was very proud of her progress and the improvements she had made.

Original: Men blind to finer differences in color.
Correction: Men are blind to finer differences in color.
In this second example she forgot the classic I am verb. Once again, these do not exist in sign language, so it was an entirely new concept to her.

The concept of 'communicative competence" (Caldwell, 2004) is described as grammar that "relates to the nature of language teaching" in an approach." (Caldwell, 2004) that is fairly universally advocated in L2 teaching." (Caldwell, 2004) the mistakes that are made may either be in "form" due to lack of knowledge or
Pedagogic Model for Teaching of Technology to Special Education Students Almost thirty years ago, the American federal government passed an act mandating the availability of a free and appropriate public education for all handicapped children. In 1990, this act was updated and reformed as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, which itself was reformed in 1997. At each step, the goal was to make education more equitable and more accessible to

However, with a few simple tools, any student can learn how to get over any form of "writer's block" and overcome any fear of self-expression. First, it is important to be as unconcerned as possible about lofty diction: that is, using big words. Big words from a young or inexperienced writer can sound artificial and
