Tia does a great job paying attention, but I'm not sure of how much of the information she retains. We worked on the essay today and went over the process she wants to go through, thesis statements and the topics for her body paragraphs. But in the practice drills, despite me repeatedly telling her she needs on "con" example, she kept forgetting to include it. She really does need a lot of work with her writing. She can improve with practice, but may want to consider scheduling a few sessions before she takes the test.
