Moving Forward
So another month down in the program and it only feels like
a week has gone by. It has been a pretty awesome semester so far and I can only
see it getting better. Another block exam has gone by but this one was
definitely harder than the last. Other than the program I have continued to
volunteer at KIPP. We have been able to help the teachers better equip their
classrooms with the proper supplies for their students. Other than volunteering
at KIPP I have also had the distinct pleasure of beginning to volunteer as a
tutor at The New Orleans Charter Mathematics and Science High School. I am
currently helping students in Algebra I through different problem sets in class.
I also have the chance to talk to the students about how important and cool
science and math can be. I feel like this really gives the students a chance to
see what they can accomplish through higher learning. I have also been
coordinating with the teacher to get a better grasp of what exactly she would like
the students to accomplish and which students need the most attention going
forward. Other than the volunteering and school New Orleans has been an
absolute blast.
Until next month NUJI out
