...questions about what they thought was accurate or false in the essay. I could ask why they thought that way. I could show the student how they should question the material by asking them the types of questions they needed to ask.

The real...

...(a little stereotypical, I know. But I can't change what I'm good at!). Now a little about my hobbies... I don't know anything about music, in fact I took an elementary piano lesson in my last semester of university, and received a B- for it!
