One of my primary jobs lately has been to tutor math. Topics from this past week include: fractions, solving square roots, algebra, plotting equations, logarithms, and trigonometry. I think that there was only one day this past week that I didn’t help someone out with math. I’ve actually decided that I enjoy it much more than tutoring English. English seems like it should be easy for me to teach, but because I learned it as a kid, I have trouble explaining the rules. Yuli, on the other hand, is very good at explaining English, and stays very busy tutoring it. But math is much easier for me, and I’m enjoying tutoring the kids a lot.

These past two weekends Elias from Casa Shalom has come over to our house because he’s currently in high school and specializing in computer programming. We’ve had a great time together, and I really enjoy helping him out with it. It’s fun to have one of the guys that I use to take care of now interested in the same subject as me!  He’s in a very good and challenging school, and it’s exciting to see him grow.  His brother Benjamin also has been coming over to stay with us on the weekends after he finishes his own classes.  Yuliza and I have really enjoyed having our house more and more filled with people every weekend.  It’s definitely the highlight of the week for us!
