Cute kiddies and Deutchland?

I have gone to Northfield Elementary three times now, and it is great. The kids are so cute. :) I have only done one on one work so far, but that is fine, I still love it. I work yesterday with a little girl, Rachell, who is really struggling in math. The poor thing, it jsut doesn't work with her. She just cannot understand the concepts or anything. It is a great experience though. I have to try to go back and remember what you know math-wise when you are 8 years old. I mean, to us, 10 + 10 is simply 20. No question, it just comes naturally, but for this poor girl, it doesn't.

So I had to leave to go to class, but I am back now. I also went to the school again. Worked with Rachell, she is a cutie. We did reading this time. Not bad at all. Hard not to correct every mistake they make though. :) I really like my teacher that I am working with too. She is really nice and down to earth, and I think she is a great teacher.

So...I may study abroad next year. I want to go to Germany. I have talked with Professor Byrne and I just have to talk to Professor Bandy and hopefully it will work out. I really hope I can do this. woo! There are two programs I am looking at, and they both look pretty good.

Well, I just remembered that I have to go to Res Life and pick up some stuff, so I will have to catch you all later! :D
