Jennifer TS#4




Date/Time: June 23, 8PM
Location: Taco Speak
Topics: Trade Law and Vocab


Since both of my tutoring partners have been unavailable, I've decided to tutor Abdulrahman. He and I met at Taco Speak for dinner and tutoring. I found a great article about a Companies Law in Saudi Arabia regarding international trade and new company founding and set up. Since Abdulrahman's degree is in trade law, I thought that the content might be familiar to him, even though it was a somewhat difficult article. http://www.tamimi.com/en/magazine/law-update/section-14/december-january-3/new-saudi-arabia-companies-law-effective-2016.html

He did know the particular law (in arabic) as it was part of his studies and as a result helped him recognize key facts from the article in English. He did his initial read and we discussed what he understood or remembered from the article and then I presented him with the vocabulary that I chose. Many of the words were particular to contracting, companies or legalese, but quite a few of the words were "smarter" variations of words he already knows. I've attached my vocabulary list below. I defined each word, offered part of speech, and offered an example sentence.

We had tacos and Abdulrahman went home with the highlighted article and the vocabulary list which we would discuss again the next day.
