Alexandaria House
The first time I went to Alexandria House, I was extremely excited. I enjoy helping others and it makes me feel happy that I made a difference. I got to tutor a girl name Jenny and she was really nice and funny. I helped her with papers that she had to fill out for Alexandria House. I as well helped her with practicing her grammar so she can improve her writing skills. She seemed like she knew what she was doing and she seems fluent in English. She did have some difficulties but they were minor. There was a question and I did not know the answer and I felt embarrassed. She was very nice so she made me feel comfortable tutoring her. When we watched the video, she knew all the answers that they asked. I like tutoring one to one instead of a group because I like to focus and give all my attention to one person. It was a good experience for me to do and I want to go back to tutor again at the ESL classes. I like to give out to the community and I have not helped the community for awhile so I am glad that I did service learning this semester. The ESL class does not have a lot of students that come in so it is hard for us to come tutor because there is not enough students to tutor for.The tutors end up watching the children and I do not mind playing with the children but I rather tutor the students. Hopefully there will be enough students for me to tutor for when I come back agian.
