Today I tutored Yosuke and Yuki. It's nice to be working again. The middle and high schools in this area start again on Monday. I'm so excited! It'll be nice to be busy with homework and projects once again.
You know, I never cease to be amazed by my students. When I start to get frustrated, I just remind myself of the burden being placed on these kids. Their families moved them to a foreign country where they're immersed in a foreign culture and can't speak the language, and yet they're expected to go to school and pass their classes just like the native speakers. Can you imagine how daunting it must be? So that's why I have to have patience. These kids are overwhelmed, and it's my job to help them as much as I can.
