I look forward to getting to know her better.<br /><br />Beaded Tail: That was nice of you. I remember my mom helping my sister with her accounting practice set in high school. My sister had it all goofed up and my mom helped her find her mistakes and by the time they were done, my sister finally understood it. I thought the accounting practice set was kind of fun but it got boring after awhile. Unless you made a mistake, it just wasn't very challenging for me.<br /><br />Lin: Glad you had such a good time being a reading coach! I'm sure you were quite good at putting the kids at ease with your humor!Karen and Gerardhttp://ourstack.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-31672984673129772552011-11-02T22:16:08.641-04:002011-11-02T22:16:08.641-04:00I was a reading coach for years when my kids were ...I was a reading coach for years when my kids were in grade school and it was the most rewarding experience EVER. I really loved the one on one time with the kids who just needed attention. I used to joke with them and just talk (and then read) because I think most of those kids just needed a positive adult figure in their lives. <br /><br />I still see some of those kids now and they always say "hi" to me. I think they had as much fun as I did. :)<br /><br />I hope you have a great time too!Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07042143254001890567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-35811826727073219822011-11-02T12:59:10.472-04:002011-11-02T12:59:10.472-04:00That's wonderful that you are tutoring Sashay!...That's wonderful that you are tutoring Sashay! I tutored college kids in Cost Accounting when I was a GTA in grad school but I'm sure that's not anywhere close to the same. It was rewarding to see the light bulb come on when they "got it"!BeadedTailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662802836032167316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-395744907583430162011-11-02T10:16:04.261-04:002011-11-02T10:16:04.261-04:00I've been homeschooling for about 15 years now...I've been homeschooling for about 15 years now, so, YEP, I tutor. It can be very rewarding. Children do need that "one on one" relationship, and a good, godly teacher can affect a child for the rest of her life!Rebecca Mecomberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11203011427886042637noreply@blogger.com
