Thanks for your reply; unfortunately I do not know a lot about him and the person who has arranged his lessons hasn't provided his e-mail address, although I guess I could go back to him.

Three hours is a long time and then being followed up by two further days stragitht afterwards is worrying me... hence why I am up early on a Saturday!

I guess I could pick some topics to talk about, perhaps stick to safe ones like home, work etc. but then it may not be that exciting!
Ellio...I think you can use cue cards to teach him tenses ....

eg _ verb on cue card DRIVING
Now ask him to speak ...ask him to make a sentence in the present tense orally...

Alternatively...you could give him rules for word order like...

Time Expression + Subject + Verb

or the opposite

Everyday I go to work

use paper cards(cue cards)...prepare them before the class starts...to get him speaking ...all the best...luv n luck-meg
