I wasn't able to talk to my client because he is in Taiwan, and we barely get a chance to discuss with each other. However, we emailed feedback to tell how it went. The client can't implement the whole lesson into his class since he needs to follow the teaching schedule provided by the boss. The class is like a tutoring class, and students pay so much money to go there to learn English. Therefore, the lesson is standard and unchangeable.
Although he can't implement my lesson into his class, he still appreciated some ideas from my lesson. My client mentioned that my material sheet helped his students a lot when identifying verb tenses.
Good thing is the project one could be a good start for me to create a lesson for Chinese people to learn English since I will go back to teach English in Taiwan.
The sad thing is I couldn't be able to evaluate his students' learning progress and make improvement from it.

Week 6
Post a blog reflecting on the feedback you have received from your partner and your client. What changes will you make before implementation? Why? What did you ignore in the client's feedback? Why?
For my lesson, it is for Chinese people to learn English. The way is a lot more different from Americans learn English when they start talking. Also, I guess some people might feel confused about my lesson plan because this is not the way they learn English. But I have to say "It is what it is". For example, if an American wants to learn Chinese, I will feel weird when I know his/her learning process. I think it is because different environments make the learning process differently.
The change I might make is the environment. Since students only speak English in class, they won't have much time practicing their English skills outside the class. The class period is very short.
