Thumbs down Boy, am I the difference. Tutoring kids at school
Call him Jake. First time I tutored, jake hugged me outright. he pretended to not know math or english except when working with me. Teacher frustrated, knows he is smart. she calls aloud for me to to affirm Jake is indeed a smart boy.

Session two.. Teacher assigns me solely to Jake. He buzzes with motivation, excited, executing all blanks on math and english, flying, finishing early, reading me books in down time.
Checking the clock, Jake says, you have eight more minutes till you have to leave..and then, it is one minute to 12. You have to leave in one minute. Can you hold my hand when we walk out?

Volunteer to tutor, please!
I am at wildwood elem..need is overwhelming.
