Welcome!
"I had no real idea what the kids would be studying and the advanced nature of it was interesting and surprising."
"I did learn how to explain things in different ways, geared towards the child's individual needs."
"Kids are bright! They also respond best when encouragement is given along with help."
"Even from this one question I saw how children need a lot of guidance when being taught and that you can't just throw a question at them and expect them to know how to do it. I also did not realize how much things have changed since I was in the fifth grade and how much more challenging it is now. When working out the problem sheet we were given earlier in the semester I found myself actually having to think through the problem and figure out how to solve it."
