What a difference age makes - Teacher to Tutor

Switching from teaching teenagers to tutoring adults way older than even I am has certainly taught me some hard lessons!
1. They aren't fun. They don't have sincere smiles or give honest comments
2. They lie.  WAY more than you would think an adult would.
3. In the same way that teenagers don't take responsibility for their actions - adults don't as well.

I am not enjoying it. ...needless to say...

Awesome Ideas

As a teacher I forced to constantly and consistently reevaluate myself and come up with creative ways to interest my students in learning.  Ever so often I get some "awesome ideas" that make my teenagers scream in delight.

My years have taught me to never give up. Continue creating. My students only stand to benefit.
