Coffee, Tea and Three Times Three
by Mayra-Macedo-Nolan
Each night last week as students gathered their belongings and headed home for the night, STARS Tutors slipped quietly out of the “Big Room” at Villa 500 and into the Tutor Cafe.
Here they got to know a little more about other tutors who share the room with them during their weekly tutoring session while enjoying a warm drink and tips ranging from techniques for teaching and encouraging reading to the fun tricks of teaching students how to multiply their “9’s”. I certainly learned something new each night!
Most importantly, I gained further insight into the “common denominator” of deep commitment these heroes (aka Tutors) possess…..and that in the world of STARS, 1+1=HOPE.
Thanks to all who took the extra time to join in on the conversation each night - and to the educators who shared their years of experience with us each night.
STARS Tutors rock!
