Experience
IN THE LAST 6 YEARS, I HAVE BEEN SUBBING IN THE PUTNAM CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT WITH CONCENTRATION IN THE READING AND WRITING OF YOUNGER STUDENTS. MY FAVORITE PART OF READING (OR WRITING) IS THE ONE ON ONE SHARING THAT TAKES PLACE. THAT WE ARE CAUGHT IN A TIME WARP TOGETHER AND ARE EXPERIENCING THE JOY OF READING. FOR ME, BEING A TUTOR AND BEING TUTORED IS ONE OF THE MOST REWARDING JOBS I HAVE EVER HAD. I CAN STILL REMEMBER MY FEAR AND BEWILDERMENT WHILE STUDYING MATH. I DONT KNOW WHEATHER IT WAS MY RIGHT OR LEFT BRAIN THAT REARED ITS UGLY HEAD THROUGHOUT MY FORMATIVE YEARS AND INTO A COLLEGE CAMPUS. MY ALGEBRA PROF SAID HE WOULD PASS ME WITH A "C" IF I WOULD MEET WITH A TUTOR; I DID AND WAVED BYE BYE TO FRACTIONS, DECIMALS AND SINCE I FINALLY BUILT UP THE NERVE TO TACKLE ALGEBRA IN MY SENIOR YEAR OF COLLEGE! I WILL NEVER FORGEET THE "LIFE SAVER" HE TOSSED TO ME, THAT DAY,AND IT IMPRESSED ON ME THE FACT THAT I WILL REACH OUT TO ANY STUDENT WHO STRUGGLES WITH ENGLISH, AS I STRUGGLED WITH MATH, I CARRIED A 3.00 AVERAGE IN COLLEGE AND WAS ON THE DEANS HONOR ROLL
