Perhaps a guided reading and multi-choice activity using the same theme you want to talk about that day.
For example:
You choose (in advance)�to talk about enjoyable holidays or weekend activities that you have had.
After reading about someone �s enjoyable activities, you could have some questions like this.
...........................................................................................
What did Jonny enjoy on the third day of his holiday?
(A) He enjoys riding a horse.
(B) He will enjoy riding a horse.
(C) He enjoyed riding a horse.
�
Check your answer:
The answer is (C)��He enjoyed riding a horse.
Why is the answer (C)?
Becuase�it talks about the past. The question�asked about the past.
.........................................................................................

Perhaps with these pre-hints�as it were, then, when you talk with your student about his/her holiday and weekend activities, he/she will still have those little Q&A answers in mind, and will make fewer grammar errors.�
�
I guess it is a�difficult choice.
Pragmatic communication or the necessary but unpleasant corrections.
After all, if you do not correct the�errors, you �ll feel bad as a teacher I suppose (I would).
�
I hope that simple but rather mechanical approach is of some little help.�
