Last day as a tutor

Today was the last day of the semester for Oklahoma City Public Schools, so it was the big Christmas party for students at the school our company has adopted. This was my first semester to tutor, and it was a rough experience. I'm sad to say that I won't be returning in the spring to work with my student. It was a complicated decision, and I got a whole new appreciation of what teachers do. There are so many kids who have so much going on outside of the classroom. For me, it was an experience that taught me a lot. I hope my student learned some things, too.
