"Best Tutor"

Today was my first day tutoring someone new. The girl is a freshman at our school and is in need of help in Geometry. I quickly realized yesterday that I forgot everything from that class so I started to study. I studied for about an hour or so last night and two hours after school today. I got over to the girl's house at four and we got to work. I felt like such an ammeter. I could have sworn that I was making everything worse. I ended up helping her with all her homework for two and a half hours! I don't think I've even spent that much time on my own homework! (Which says something about my education)... So by the time yhat we were done, the girl said that I helped her understand her math a lot better! Her saying ghat made me so proud. Then her telling mg brother over Facebook that j was the "best tutor" made me feel any better. Knowing that she understood reassures me that I am going to become a teacher in the future. Of course, I am going to stick to teaching first or second graders. But still!! I'm very excited and grateful that j have found my calling. :)
