他刚走 is right: 刚 is an adverb, so it goes after the subject and before the verb. It cannot start the sentence or follow the verb, and 了 is not doubled.
just刚…then就…: as soon as
- I我just刚arrive到home家，then就rain下雨(completed / change)了。 — "I'd only just got home when it started to rain."

Your mum calls as you walk out of the arrivals hall. Close the examples. Say a Mandarin response, then write it in Chinese. Explain briefly in English what the lesson’s pattern adds. Compare with the model, then change one detail and try again.
This is supported productive practice. Compare meaning and structure; your answer need not copy the model. A partner or teacher must hear the spoken response to comment on pronunciation.
