Day 5: School

Vanessa: So when did you go to more traditional school?
Dan: Actually, I guess eighth grade, so the tail end of middle school is when I went to a regular school, but it was still a private school. It was very small. A very, very small private school.
Vanessa: Like 6 people.
Dan: Yeah.

Vocabulary:

The tail end of something: the very end of something
Still: to emphasize that homeschooling and his regular school weren’t very

different

Like: a casual filler expression that has different meanings; in this sentence it means “about”
