Still Waiting....

Well, I may have over-estimated the desire and need for the service that I am offering to the parents and children of this region.

I still have one student and we are doing very well. I thoroughly enjoy working with her and I am slowly teaching her skills for self-directed learning and hopefully instilling in her the understanding that she has a choice as to how she approaches her assignments and her daily school life. Hopefully I am offering her a potential to choose self-direction and self-assessment. This is my intention and my focus as we work together. Actually, it is one focus of our work together, because we are building her skills of self-organization and her math and writing skills as well.

I continue to save all of the money that I earn through this tutoring work to fund this project, but as I do not see a strong interest in what I am offering in the community around me, I tend to lose interest as well.

So, I may eventually let go of this project, but for now, I'm still in a wait and see attitude.
