Tutor Time!

     Now that spring break is finally over I can tutor! I have a love of teaching people! I find it incredibly rewarding to teach someone something and help them understand it! I know how to make learning fun! I've noticed most people learn better one on one instead of one on 40! I really gotta say that I enjoy it! I love school! The break was fun, but school is even better! I once received a taste of learning and it stuck with me!
 
      In English 11, we started reading The Great Gatsby! It's fantastic. Other teenagers don't seem too into it, but I love reading. I find the authors voice very sophisticated and just fantastic! I love writing so I really appreciate someone who is a great writer! 

     I finally started working as a tutor after school too! It's great! Except this one kid, who decided that he will contradict every word I say and then while I am tutoring someone else he will stand over me and give the person I am tutoring invalid instructions. Honey! I am 3 years older than you and you failed two grades and you're in tutoring for a reason. The only reason he did this was because when my Russian teacher is sick, I substitute for her (Which is fantastic). He is in Russian one and doesn't like me because I call on him. God forbid that I call upon someone right? Anyway! Now onwards and off of my happy little rant! 

     All I gotta say is that I believe anyone who puts effort into learning will come out on top! All it takes is a little bit of work ethic and effort! Now I know High School is to learn AND develop Social Skills. I do have Social Skills, I am a very social person actually. Just one of the biggest pet-peeves I have is when people procrastinate or use excuses. I don't understand why people would rather push a paper off until that night, I would rather get it done in school so I can do other thing's outside of school. But it seems that people don't see the negative effect of not doing their work. You are effected by not doing it, instead of using that five minutes in class to do the work they would rather talk to their friends and lose 20 points! Nonsense! Nonsensical actions my dear! Absurd! Absolutely Absurd! Well there is my first day back to school rant! Stay tuned for more input from I, The tantalizing Tutor!
